Program details

Take the longest cable car ride in Europe from sea level all the way to the top of Mount Tahtali in the Olympos mountain range. Admire the magnificent panoramic views of the Turkish coastline and the snow-topped mountain peaks. Marvel at the scenery before descending and stepping back in time to the age of pirates and ancient Lycians at the historical harbour town of Phaselis. See the arches of ancient shops, roman baths, water channels and Hadrians’ water gate to mention just a few.


There is no better way to see Antalya in all its glory than from above as you majestically climb up from the city walls to the clouds and mountain peaks of Mount Tahtali. The Tahtali Aerial Cableway is, at 4,350 meters in length, the longest of its kind in Europe, and the second longest in the world. You'll ascend over the Olympos National Park to the snow-capped summit of Mt. Tahtali, standing a staggering 2,365 metres above sea level. Be sure to bring your camera with you to capture the unforgettable views from the top with its 360 degrees viewing platform.


Back down at sea-level you will explore the fascinating and picturesque town of Phaselis. Once an important harbour town and scene of many pirate attacks, Phaselis now proudly presents its history to visitors and your guide will tell you its many mysteries and secrets as you are led through the ancient cobbled streets. The ruins of the Roman baths and water channels are are particular highlight.
