Yanarta? Eternal Flame Tour

At 4:30 pm, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Kemer and head towards Cirali, passing by villages such as Kuzdere, Camyuva, and Tekirova.

In Cirali, we'll stop at its 3-kilometer (1.8 mile) beach for swimming and strolling along the shore.

As the sun sets, we'll ascend Mount Chimera, known as the Mount of the Eternal Fire, via a stone path. At the mountain's summit, the Yanartas fires burn continuously, providing a remarkable night view.

The legend tells of Lycian king Iobates who asked Bellerophon to slay Chimera, a fire-breathing monster. With assistance from Athena and Pegasus, Chimera was contained, but its fire burns eternally due to methane escaping from the mountain.

After this experience, we'll proceed to Ulupinar for dinner amidst trees and springs. The meal includes a main course, salad, and seasonal fruit for dessert.

We will return to Kemer, dropping you off at your hotel around 11:30 pm, concluding the tour.
