Explore the rich and beautiful history of Antalya
Antalya, a city rich in history, culture and stunning natural sights. Bordered by the Taurus Mountains, Antalya is the largest Turkish city on the Mediterranean coast, flaunting pristine white sand beaches and ancient Roman and Byzantine ruins.
During the crusades, christian warriors chose it as the perfect harbour on their way to Jerusalem. In 1923, it became an Ottoman city. Today, it is markedly Turkish, but it carries the complexity and beauty of the many cultures which inhabited it.
Antalya is home to coastlines of incredible beauty, perfect for catching some rays and letting all your troubles wash away. So whether you’re a history buff, a sun seeker or just looking for somewhere fun to take the kids, Antalya certainly has something for everybody.
The Voyage Privé travel expert’s opinion on travel to Antalya
Antalya is fast becoming a real favourite for couples and families and it's easy to see why. Affordable and rich in culture, with exciting activities and day trips for all ages. Why not take the kids to the brilliant Sandland or Dolphinland Aqua Park, or Discover the magical underwater world at Antalya Aquarium, hosting the world’s biggest underwater tunnel. Or if you’re travelling alone, or a couples getaway is what you’re after, Antalya is truly one of the hidden gems of the Mediterranean, with romantic excursions and beautiful sunsets to look forward to. Walk around the cobbled streets of Old Town, soaking in the history. Spend the day getting lost in the maze-like back alleys and stumble upon quaint cafés and restaurants. Enjoy delicacies from all over the Mediterranean, getting stuck into the local cuisine. With a delightful array of Turkish meze and fresh seafood, there’s some of the best food on offer here within the city. Make sure you wash it down with a healthy helping of raki and enjoy the local nightlife
Top 5 things to do/ see in Antalya
1. Düden Waterfalls
With the most incredible insta-worthy landscapes, it is well worth a day trip to these beautiful waterfalls. Make sure to visit both the Upper and Lower waterfalls and shoot some attractive photos to share with friends and family.
2. The Old Town
If history and architecture are your thing, then you have to visit the Old Town of Kaleiçi, which houses many of Antalya’s hidden ruins and makes for a lovely relaxed afternoon in the city. With the Antalya Archaeological Museum, the ancient clock tower and the Yivliminare Mosque, there’s plenty in the way of culture in Kaleiçi.
Surrounded by bustling local businesses, cafes and markets, there’s always something to keep the whole family entertained. While you’re in Old Town, make sure you take a stroll down to Hadrian’s Gate, one of the cities most beloved monuments, dating all the way back to the 2nd Century. Hadrian's Gate is a wonderfully preserved piece of architecture and history, which is the only remaining entrance gate in the walls that surround the city and harbour.
For a romantic evening out, take advantage of the local Mediterranean cuisine and nightlife in Old Town, making sure to explore the modern side of this great city.
Walking by the beach in the evenings you will find places to have a drink by the sunset and have a dance with the locals. An unmissable delight is the many panoramic terraces which look over the old harbour.
3. The Ruins of Perge
Once the most prosperous city of the ancient world, now a vast rubble-filled stadium surrounded by half-desecrated temples. Make the most of the ruins at Perge, as unlike most restoration sites, the ruins of Perge allow you to get up close and experience everything for yourself.
4. The Old Town Harbour and Marina
A perfect spot for lunch with the locals, overlooking Antalya’s beautiful coastline. Great if you love being touristy and are interested in seeing what excursions are on offer. If the hustle and bustle is not your scene, there are nice restaurants from the cliff top with an unbeatable view.
5. The Sunken City of Kekova
Take a tour of the Sunken city of Kekova, enjoy a spot of lunch and swim in the hidden coves. With intimate boat tours, stunning sunsets and dinner with a view, Antalya is the perfect romantic getaway for couples looking for somewhere to soak in the culture, as well as each other’s company. Sign up for a tour of the sunken city of Kekova (an ancient Lycian city now buried beneath the sea) and spend the afternoon soaking up some sun and history.

We stayed a week (28/10 - 11/04/2018) at Rixos Downtown. Everything was perfect: the location, the triple room, the sea view, the catering, the very kind staff, the cleanliness, the hamam, the pool and the beach of the hotel equipped with beds and umbrellas , the promenade, etc. This hotel, as its name suggests, is located in the heart of Antalya, a few meters from the archaeological museum and 2 km from the city's ancient and Ottoman center. We have been able to easily walk, which is very pleasant, given the monstrous traffic jams that clog the city. We rented a car at the airport for convenience. The hotel has a large free parking, covered and guarded and is located close to major highways, which allowed us to visit Pamukkale (World Heritage of Humanity) and Aspendos, Pergé and Termessos (on the indicative list of UNESCO).

Review
The offer offered indicated Antalya, the hotel was located 1:25 from Antalya. To visit the nearest town Alanya 45 min drive. The view and the beach of the hotel are splendid, the pool is not heated, the water was at 17 degrees. End of season, limited and missing benefits. Some male employees had very enterprising and inappropriate behaviors. A holiday in a beautiful hotel, a mixed feeling because too many things were missing (water aerobics, pilates, archery, distance, ...).
