Day 5:
After breakfast, depart for the long cruise past the Seven Capes to
Kalkan. Lunch in the harbour, then enjoy an overland tour to the Lycian
cities of Letoon, Patara and Xanthos. Xanthos was the capital of the
Lycian league, which rose to the height of its splendour in the 10th
century BC. Patara, recognised by scholars as the birthplace of Apollo,
has a magnificent history dating back as far as the 7th-century BC.
Patara was an important place of trade in antiquity and excavations
being carried out today are uncovering more and more of this extensive
site. Letoon was a place of worship for the people of Xanthos and the
most important ruins are those of the Temples of Leto, Apollo and
Artemis. Letoon is cited in many guidebooks as one of the most
delightful sites in Lycia. Dinner on board
