Antalya City Tour: Cable Car, Boat & Waterfalls

Water cascading 40 meters into the sea, seen from a boat off the coast.

An all-day city tour of Antalya combines walking through the narrow streets of the Old Town, visiting two waterfalls (Düden and Karpuzkaldıran), a one-hour boat cruise from the harbor, and a cable car ride to Mount Tahtalı at 2,365 meters. A professional English-speaking guide leads the day, which includes lunch, hotel pickup and drop-off, and runs seven to eight hours. The cable car ticket is optional on some options and costs extra. The boat cruise is included on two of the three booking choices.

The experience

The day starts with a walk through Kaleiçi, Antalya's Old Town, where Ottoman mansions and Roman ruins line narrow streets. Your guide points out the history and stories woven into the architecture and bazaars as you move through the colorful district. From there, you head to the Upper Düden Waterfall, set close to the city center in lush greenery, where water cascades down high cliffs and caves offer places to explore and photograph.

A leather factory visit (about 20 minutes) shows the traditional craftsmanship of Turkish leather goods, followed by lunch featuring Turkish cuisine made with fresh, natural ingredients and rich spices. Then you board a boat from the Old Town harbor for a one-hour cruise along the Mediterranean coast. The highlight is the Lower Düden Waterfall (Karpuzkaldıran), where water plunges 40 meters directly into the sea: a sight you see from the water itself, not from land. The boat also passes several coastal landmarks as it moves along the turquoise shoreline.

If you choose the cable car option, the day ends with a ride up Mount Tahtalı (Olympos) to 2,365 meters, where panoramic views stretch across the Mediterranean, pine forests, and the Taurus Mountains. A mountaintop café lets you rest with a drink and take photos before heading back. The cable car ticket is not included in the base tour price and must be added at checkout. The boat cruise is included on two of the three booking options, so check which one you select.

Is this one for you?Choose the option with the boat cruise if you want to see the Lower Düden Waterfall from the water: that 40-meter drop into the sea is the view that changes when you're on the boat instead of standing on shore. Add the cable car if the panoramic views from 2,365 meters and time at the summit matter to your day. Without it, the tour stays in the lower city and the coastal zone.
