Overview
You'll travel back in time to the days of togas and chariots with this full day excursion to the ancient sites of Perga and Aspendos. Among the attractions you'll discover is perhaps the best-preserved Roman theatre of all. What's more, you'll also get to visit Kursunlu – home to one of Turkey's most impressive waterfalls.First on the history hitlist is the classical city of Perga. This once-bustling Roman port was founded around 1300 BC and the first stop for St Paul on his missionary journeys around the Mediterranean. Take a guided tour, stepping through the triumphal Roman gate to admire the ruined temples, marketplace and fountains. It's then on to Kursunlu falls, one of the largest and most beautiful waterfalls in Turkey, before enjoying lunch on the bank of the river.Next we go to Aspendos to see one of the best-preserved theatres from antiquity. Built 2,000 years ago into a steep hillside and big enough for 15,000 spectators, its perfect acoustics mean that it's still used for operas and concerts today. To round off the day, you'll visit the Seljuk Bridge.
