Duration: 4 Hours
Do this because
You'll learn about the Fethiye district on a guided visit to one of Turkey's most scenic areas
There's the ghost town of Kayaköy to explore, which was abandoned a century ago by the Greeks
You'll find an eerily empty basilica with faded frescoes and mosaics painting a picture of the past
The cable car will take you 1,700 meters up Mount Babadağ for impressive views of Fethiye's coast
Your local guide is an expert on the facts and fables of this historic region of Turkey
What to expect
From an abandoned hillside village to the summit of Mount Babadağ, there's a variety of views on this tour. You'll feel like you've stepped back in time exploring Kayaköy, one of the best-preserved ghost villages in Turkey. Elif, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘There are close to one thousand deserted stone houses as well as churches and chapels, even a bakery. At one point there was a plan to convert the whole village into a tourist resort, but thankfully this historic place has been preserved.'We'll start off the tour in Kayaköy, which was abandoned by Greeks fleeing war in the 1920s. Now, their ghosts flit between the empty homes as you wander through silent streets that once rang with voices. Peek into roofless stone dwellings as your guide explains their tiered designs, and discover tiny chapels and a little school. Elif says, ‘The layout of the houses and the way they were lined up was to ensure none blocked another's view.' You'll also see the empty basilica, with its faded frescoes and mosaics. Eerie yet fascinating.Next up, we'll head to the foot of Mount Babadağ to hop on a cable car almost to the top. Enjoy eye-popping panoramic views over Fethiye and the coast below as you glide up to the top station below the summit. If you want to reach the very top, there is a chairlift available. The peak is popular with paragliders, so there's a good chance you'll see them drifting in the skyline. It's a feast for the eyes.

I liked the views, price of food at the top of the cable cars was expensive. Ghost town was nice to see. Very hot and great wee bar/cafe at the end. Would have liked to buy the leather items at the end as I didn’t take money as wasn’t made away there would be an opportunity to buy things.

Also bei der Buchung Strand dass wir Babadag am Abend besuchen. Das war nicht der Fall. Es war sehr enttäuschend,dass wir den Sonnenuntergang nicjt sehen konnten. Bei der Buchung stand es leider nicht so. Von der Reiseführerin haben wir die Info dann bekommen,dass das seit 4-5 Jahren nicht mehr gemacht wird. Was noch rin Minuspunkt ist,dass wir in Babadag nur 1 Std Zeit hatten um was zu machen,da die Fahrt hin und zurück knapp 30 Minuten dauert. Hier sollte mehr Zeit für Besichtigungen sein

Mount Babadag Cable Car experience was good, Kayakoy Ghost Town Tour was ok, but more emphasis should be placed on uneven paths around the Ghost Town. Barish was a nice fellow, but sometimes found it difficult to understand him.

Loved the views, cable cars and chair lifts at Baghdad but it would be nice to have a bit more time at the top as 1hour goes so fast. First time we did it we got to see the sun going down which was lovely. Maybe an evening trip as well as a day trip would be nice. The ghost town is so peaceful and full of history. We have done this trip 3 times already and still enjoy it each time

The tour overall was amazing. My first cable car experience. So would it have been helpful to get information and guidance beforehand. We were picked up from our hotel just as lunch started so we took packed lunches only to be told we had to leave them on the coach! We had just enough cash to get one portion of chips between us. I recommend facing your fears of heights and do the cable car and the ski seats. The views from the top are stunning. Ghost town story very interesting.

Po pierwsze to rezydent Tui powinien przekazać,że nie jest to wycieczka dla osób z małymi dziećmi (zapytana powiedziała, że każdy zna swoje dziecko). Droga w opuszczonym mieście jest bardzo wyboista, pełno kamieni, dużo śmieci. Rezydentka nie wspomniała również, że jest to wycieczka tylko po angielsku a były z Nami osoby nie znające języka. Ogółem samo Babadag Cable Car warto zobaczyć. Uczulam na górze jest bardzo zimno. Kayakov również,ale bez dzieci

At this time of year (May) do not expect to go all the way to the top of the mountain as it is closed due to the weather at the top you only go up to 1200 metres. The restaurant is fair priced for food and drinks. The abandoned city was very informative. The 2 excursions in one is a great idea and me personally felt that you wanted more time at the 2 stop location to experience and explore better! All in all a good half day out!

Coach arrived exactly on the time stated to pick us up from our hotel. Our guide Mel was very good (as was the driver) she was very informative and clear with instructions about timings etc. the cable car was good with great views over olu deniz . The ghost village was very good, we were glad to have worn good shoes, as it would be impossible to do in flip flops. We were fortunate to see a large wild tortoise walking around one of the houses. 😁

Extremely good value for money. We worked out that it was less than 10€ each per hour! Rosie, our guide, and the drivers, were friendly and helpful. The cable car ride was superb. At the beginning the staff told Rosie the top part was closed us to the weather, but when we got there it was, so we were able to go up. It was the last day, however, so not surprising! The “ghost town” was fascinating and Rosie was very knowledgeable.

Der Babadag hat sich gelohnt. Der Guide hat jedoch, außer die Tickets zu holen, nicht dazu beigetragen! Die Geisterstadt ist sicher für einige Menschen interessant, wir fanden es langweilig. Danach mussten wir noch 1,5 Stunden Pause machen in einem Lokal, wo nichts los war und wir nur rumgesessen haben. Vermutlich gab es hier einen Deal zwischen Guide und Wirt. Das war war absolut unnötig und Zeitverschwendung. Den Ausflug kann auch alleine machen,

Wird als 2 bis 4 Stunden Tour angeboten, waren aber 7 Stunden, davon 2 Stunden alleine die Transferzeit. Über Berg Babadag wird nur erzählt, dass die Schweizer die Seilbahn gebaut haben. In Kayaköy musste man 45 min am Ende in einen Restaurant sitzen und konnte zu erhöhten Preisen was Trinken. Außerhalb gab es günstiger Trinken. Man hätte sich aber den Schluss sparen können und gleich wieder zurück fahren können. Geschichtlich war es dennoch interessant.

Lovely afternoon with knowledgable guides. We had two guides - one for English speaking guests and one for Polish families. Both were cheerful and helpful. Views from the top of the cable car were amazing and was very relaxing watching the scores of paragliders taking off whilst enjoying a drink in the cafe. Kayakoy Ghost town was random in a good way. Having the story of how it became the way it is today was very interesting.

The tour bus was over an hour late; our rep did keep us informed and offered a taxi alternative but by this time the trip would have been shortened, our 5 year old had lost patience. Turns out traffic is a well known issue for this trip, wish our rep informed us of this, instead of finding out from a hotel staff member!!

Guide put us off taking the chair lift to the top. Kept saying he wouldn't wait for us if it broke down. Surely this should have been mentioned when booking, then we could have made alternative arrangements and not do this trip. The ghost town part was very good. BUT surely a 45 minute break before returning back was excessive.

Als ik ter plaats contant moet betalen, dan verwacht ik dat bij annulering Tui ook ter plaats ontant betaalt terug en niet 2 weken later via bank! We hadden dat geld ook aan iets anders kunnen besteden! We zullen geen tui excursies aanbevelen aan anderen. Grote teleurstelling was dit ook omdat de annulering pas 1 uur van te vooren was verteld. We zullen kennissen aanraden niet van te vooren aan jullie betalen. Pas als ze op de boot zitten.

The cable car experience was first glass, however before you can get on the cable car you have to go through a security area with scanner and metal detection, not for security reasons other than to makesure you are not carrying any food, so you have to buy the food when you get to the top, which is ridiculous. The ghost town was ok very hard to walk on the cobbles.

Nice things to see but the free time on the top is too long for a place having only a coffee shop. It’s kind of a waste of time. The whole tour must be no longer than 3 hours even at the same cost. Won’t waste the tourists holiday time. Overall it’s a nice attraction, spectacular view from the cable car and the coffee shop. I would recommend it !!! Thanks

This excursion was not very interesting at all. The cable car ride was good and the views amazing but once we up there, then we just had to sit and wait for 1.5 hours with the o Lu option to go to the restaurant. The guide have no interesting facts (eg when was it built, why…). Then the guide took us to Kayakoy and spoke to us for 10 minutes with very general information about the Turkish and Greeks. Then walked around the site for 5 minutes, then gave us 1.5 hours to go to the restaurant again.

£275 for a family of 5. 15 min ride up cable car and 15 min back. 1hr45 min at restaurant( only thing to do after taking pics was buy lunch £100). 30 mins guide tour of ghost town ( then another 45 min stop at cafe £20 for drinks) spent more time in restaurants/ cafes than on the actual trip. Felt like we were brought to these locations just to spend money in local eateries rather than see the sights. Very disappointed

Absolutely loved it! It was one of the best experiences of my entire life. The views from the top of the mountain were absolutely phenomenal and i took some gorgeous pictures qnd made memories to cherish forever. Food and drink up there was fairly priced, at least from what we saw. Loved it to bits!

We were picked up 25mins late. When we arrived to the cable cars she said to leave at highest point 3:20pm. We left 3:25pm and the cable cars stopped in the air. When we got to the bottom the guide had left us there and we didn’t see the next part of the trip so we had to get a taxi back she also left another family there which was poor. She should allow for the cable cars stopping that was out of our control. Appalled if I knew that I wouldn’t have rushed back to the bottom

The guide was lovely. The only thing I didn’t like was I don’t think there was enough time to fully appreciate these experiences. Usually we would do our own excursions but due to the festival on and the traffic that it caused we decided to go with Tui. I like to take my time and take in everything and have a nosey around but I felt there wasn’t enough time to do this. Other than that I can’t fault it.

We really enjoyed the cable car ride and beautiful views from the mountain. Our guide was polite and knowledgeable The Ghost town part was good but it was extremely hot by the time we got there (40c) and so not comfortable! Aside from the weather it was a really good trip. Maybe an idea to do the trip in the morning or the Ghost town first.

The guide was amazing! The cable car really nice, just been less lucky as cloudy and the 1200 m covered in clouds...May, so common, nobody's fault.

Trip was good but originally booked for Saturday and never received cancellation notification. Email only received when contacted rep about bus not turning up. Cancellations text definitely wasnt received. Wasted a full morning of our holiday as a result. However enjoyed trip when rebooked for Wednesday. Tour guide was really informative and helpful.

Walk around the ghost town was really good - but cable car ride up Babadag was a real let down as only winter station was open & you are forced to into the restaurant as no other viewing area with seating was open. Plus all the toilets at this level were closed

Our guide (Ferit) was fab. He was really knowledgeable and kept us informed with what was happening and when etc. The trip itself was great and the half day was just enough for us with a couple of teenagers in tow. We have visited Kayakoy before but good to see how it has changed. Our highlight was Babadag cable cars. It was really great. Although would have appreciated some info regarding the temp drop at the top prior to trip so we could take jackets.

The tour around the ghost town was for me a little bit far to walk but interesting. The cable car ride and then the chair lift to the top was fantastic, Rosie our guide for the day was really informative, funny and engaging, lovely lady.

Very knowledgeable guide regarding the ghost town. Had plenty of time to explore too. The cable car was also a good experience, especially watching the paragliding. Able to watch the sunset as we rode back down.

Der Guide war hervorragend, sehr gut zu verstehen und sehr bemüht, alle Teilnehmer zu informieren. Die Geisterstadt war interessant anzusehen, auch wenn dort natürlich nichts weiter los ist. Die Fahrt mit der Seilbahn auf den Berg war super. Wunderschöne Aussicht und ein toller Sonnenuntergang. Die Busfahrt war teilweise recht holprig, das liegt aber denke ich an der allgemeinen Fahrweise in der Türkei und nicht am Busfahrer.

More time inside Kayakoy village to look around would have been nice…… and less time at the cable car before sunset Maybe a good idea to warn people it’s cold at the top of the cable car…… we saw some silly people in swimwear/ very light clothes looking frozen

We loved the cable car ride and the spectacular views. What we didn’t enjoy was the so called organic farm we were taken to. To us it looked like a run down house where they are waiting for tourists to spend money on things they can’t use on holiday. The worst bit was a small chained up dog with water that was in a algae coloured bowl . We thought being an organic farm they would have care for there livestock with care and compassion. I’d recommend a taxi to the cable car. It’s 170lira a ticket.

Did not appreciate the guide (Rosie I think) shouting and lecturing us in front of a bus full of other people for standing at the front gate - we explained that on the ticket (which I still have) it states to stand at the gate. This did not stop the lecture and she continued to shout and lecture us saying well next time wait at reception because that’s what that means? Sorry but rude and not appreciated when we are paying for a service and doing what we have been told to do on the ticket. Genuinely was mortified and this marred an otherwise fab trip. We were not the only people to get shouted at, there was another couple at our hotel who were treated in the same manner.
