Discover the heart of ancient Lycia with our Letoon, Xanthos & Patara Ancient Cities Tour, a unique full-day historical experience from Fethiye. This carefully designed combined tour brings together three UNESCO World Heritage Sites, offering a deep journey into the political, religious, and cultural legacy of the Lycian civilization.

Perfect for history enthusiasts, culture lovers, and travelers seeking an authentic archaeological experience in Turkey.

Tour Program

Our tour starts at approximately 10:00 AM, when we pick you up from your hotel, villa, or marina with a comfortable private vehicle and a professional driver. Throughout the day, you will explore the most important ancient cities of Lycia in one seamless and well-organized itinerary.

Letoon Ancient City – The Religious Center of Lycia

Our first stop is Letoon Ancient City, believed to have been founded in the 7th century BC and known as the religious center of the Lycian League. Letoon is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and was dedicated to the goddess Leto and her children Apollo and Artemis.

Here, you will explore;

  • Sacred temple ruins
  • Ancient inscriptions and sanctuaries
  • The ceremonial layout reflecting Lycian religious life

Surrounded by nature, Letoon offers a peaceful yet powerful introduction to Lycian spirituality and mythology.

Xanthos Ancient City – Capital of Lycian Civilization

Next, we visit Xanthos Ancient City, one of the most important political and administrative centers of ancient Lycia and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Xanthos played a key role throughout history under Lycian, Persian, Roman, and Byzantine rule. Constantly sought after by empires, the city remains a symbol of Lycian resilience and cultural richness.

Highlights of Xanthos include;

  • The Acropolis of Xanthos
  • The Lycian Theatre
  • The Harpy Tomb and Pillared Sarcophagus, iconic examples of Lycian funerary art

Walking through Xanthos allows visitors to witness centuries of civilization carved into stone.

Patara Ancient City – Capital of the Lycian League

Our final stop is Patara Ancient City, once the capital of the Lycian League and one of the most influential maritime and commercial cities of antiquity.

Dating back to the 5th century BC, Patara held three voting rights within the Lycian League, proving its political importance. The city continued to flourish during the Roman Empire.

During your visit, you will discover;

  • The North Gate of Patara
  • The Main Street, reflecting advanced urban planning
