Day trips and tours in Turkey carry a wonderful variety that is suited perfectly for all types of travel. If you're a history buff, there are ruins of Ephesus to see, one of the best-preserved classical cities in the world, or to wander about beneath the beautiful wastes of Troy, so famous for Homer's Iliad. If you're a lover of nature, visit Pamukkale's natural thermal pools and cascading white travertine terraces, popularly known as "Cotton Castle," and bask in its beauty and sheer tranquillity. The otherworldly landscape of Cappadocia, with its fairy chimneys and cave dwellings, lends itself to hot air ballooning, hiking, or exploring its underground cities. Spend a day just soaking in the sun on beautiful beaches or try your hand at paragliding and yacht tours in some of the coastal havens, such as Fethiye and its neighbor Oludeniz with its well-known Blue Lagoon. For a truly local touch, you can go into the remote villages in the Turkish countryside to experience the real Turkish life. Meanwhile, a cruise along the Mediterranean coast that has Bodrum or Marmaris in its stops reveals turquoise water, beautiful havens, and cozy harbors. Day trips from Istanbul take you to popular sites within this cultural hub of history and modernity: the Bosphorus Strait, the Blue Mosque, and the bustling Grand Bazaar. Adventure, relaxation, or close interaction with the treasure troves of history from Turkey's day trips gives promise of unforgettable memories.
