Dalyan Boat Tours & Apart Hotel
Your Family Away from Home on the Turquoise Coast Since 1996
Welcome to Dalyan Boat Tours, where three decades of hospitality meet the timeless beauty of the Dalyan Delta. We are more than just a tour operator; we are a family business dedicated to showing you the soul of this magical region.
Our Story: A Legacy of Hospitality
Our journey began in 1996, when our family first launched a small boat on the gentle waters of the Dalyan River. What started as a passion for sharing the natural wonders of our hometown has grown into a beloved local institution.
Over the past nearly 30 years, we have watched Dalyan evolve, but our core mission has remained unchanged: to provide authentic, personalized, and unforgettable experiences for every guest who steps onto our dock.
Being a family-run business means that when you book with us, you aren’t just a ticket number. You are our guest. From the grandparents who started it all to the younger generation now steering the ships, every member of our family is committed to ensuring your stay is perfect.
Our Fleet: Luxury on the Water
We believe that exploring the ancient Lycian ruins, the hidden caves, and the famous Iztuzu Beach (the nesting ground of Caretta Caretta turtles) should be done in absolute comfort.
We operate two exclusive luxury boats, meticulously maintained and designed for relaxation:
Spacious & Comfortable: Enjoy ample deck space for sunbathing, shaded lounging areas, and comfortable seating.
Gourmet Experience: Savor delicious, home-cooked Turkish meals prepared fresh daily using local ingredients, served right on board.
Private & Intimate: Unlike large crowded ferries, our luxury vessels offer a more private atmosphere, allowing us to tailor the route and pace to your group’s desires.
Whether you are watching the sunset over the rock tombs or swimming in the cool delta waters, our boats provide the perfect vantage point.
Stay With Us: The Dalyan Apart Hotel
Our commitment to your comfort extends beyond the water. Understanding the needs of travelers who want both independence and hotel-quality service, we established our Apart Hotel.
Located conveniently close to the river and the town center, our apartments offer:
Home-like Amenities: Fully equipped kitchens and spacious living areas.
Family Friendly: Perfect for families or groups who need extra room to relax after a day of exploration.
Local Charm: Designed with traditional touches and modern comforts, offering a tranquil retreat in the heart of Dalyan.
Many of our guests love the convenience of booking a “Stay & Sail” package, enjoying seamless coordination between their accommodation and their daily boat adventures.
Why Choose Us?
30 Years of Experience: We know every bend of the river, every hidden cove, and the best times to visit the turtle beach to avoid crowds.
Eco-Conscious: We are deeply committed to protecting the Dalyan Delta. We strictly adhere to environmental guidelines to protect the Caretta Caretta turtles and the pristine nature of the region.
Personalized Service: As a family business, we have the flexibility to customize tours for honeymoons, family reunions, or solo adventurers.
