What you'll see and do
The early history of the settlement is obscure, in spite of an exploratory survey carried out, with permission of the Turkish authorities, by the British Institute at Ankara (BIAA) in 1974–76.[1] It seems that Oinoanda became a colony of Termessos about 200-190 BC and was also called Termessos Minor (or Termessos i pros Oinoanda). Oenoanda was the most southerly of the Kibyran Tetrapoleis in the Hellenistic Period, which was dissolved by L. Licinius Murena in 84 BCE, whereupon Oenoanda became part of the koinon of Lycia, as its inscriptions abundantly demonstrate. Diogenes carved a summary of the philosophy of Epicurus onto a portico wall, which originally extended about 80 meters. The inscription sets out Epicurus' teachings on physics, epistemology, and ethics. It was originally about 25,000 words long and filled 260 square meters of wall space. The inscription has been assigned on epigraphic grounds to the Hadrianic period, 117–138 CE.The stoa was dismantled in the second half of the third century CE to make room for a defensive wall; previously the site had been undefended.

Very impressive visit of Oinoanda
Our guide Fatih picked us up in Antalya and drove us to the small town of Incealiler from where we started our climb up to the remains of the ancient city of Oinoanda. It's a site not widely known but very much worth a visit. In Oinoanda, which means rich in wine or rich in vines, the wealthy Epicurian philosopher Diogenes donated a large inscription explaining Epicurus’ teachings. It was carved in the wall of a local stoa. Parts of the inscription have been recovered and are kept secure in a warehouse on site but are not on public display. However there’s lots more to see. The Hellenistic city wall, the theater, sarcophagi, the remains of the esplanade (the upper agora where Diogenes’ stoa most likely stood), lime stone joints for the pipes that supplied the city with water, several inscribed stones, the remains of a defensive wall to the north of the city. It’s a very impressive and powerful experience to walk among these ruins with no other people around you to remind you that you’re in the 21st century and not the second. We can highly recommend visiting Oinoanda to anyone interested in classical times. The climb is not very steep but we do advise wearing proper walking shoes. Fatih is a most excellent guide. Very knowledgeable, flexible and friendly. Very easy to get in touch with and quick to respond to any questions. We will definitely return to Turkey and book another tour with Overland Travel.

Why this scores 37
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tour to Oenoanda: Site of philosophie of the Epicurean, Diogenes of Oenoanda.: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Fethiye.
How much does Tour to Oenoanda: Site of philosophie of the Epicurean, Diogenes of Oenoanda. cost?
+
Prices start at $571 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Fethiye usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tour to Oenoanda: Site of philosophie of the Epicurean, Diogenes of Oenoanda. take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Fethiye is not rushed.
Is Tour to Oenoanda: Site of philosophie of the Epicurean, Diogenes of Oenoanda. worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 37 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Fethiye, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tour to Oenoanda: Site of philosophie of the Epicurean, Diogenes of Oenoanda.?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Tour to Oenoanda: Site of philosophie of the Epicurean, Diogenes of Oenoanda. suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tour to Oenoanda: Site of philosophie of the Epicurean, Diogenes of Oenoanda.?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Fethiye can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Fethiye and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tour to Oenoanda: Site of philosophie of the Epicurean, Diogenes of Oenoanda. start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Fethiye within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Fethiye?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Fethiye?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
