Day 2: Antalya – Perge – Aspendos – Side -- Antalya (B, L)
After breakfast, your guide will pick you up from your hotel by luxury minibus and then drive you to Perge. Easily the most important city of ancient Pamphylia, Perge is said to have been in its heyday during the Hellenistic period and under Roman rule. Most of its relics date from the 2nd century AD, and you’ll see some of the finest on a tour with your guide. See Perge’s Roman Gate with its magnificent arches, the colonnaded main street and the city’s meticulously restored public baths.
After lunch in a café, continue by minibus to Aspendos to see one of the best-preserved Roman theaters of the ancient world. Still used today, this incredible theater stages sell-out operas, events and concerts. Nearby, see Aspendos’ 3rd-century basilica ruins and remains of the town’s central meeting point, known as the agora.
Continue to Side, the most easterly ancient city of the region, situated on its own peninsula. Flanked by golden beaches on both sides, the ancient town holds wonders aplenty, owing to its history as one of Turkey’s most important trade centers. See marble Roman ruins and the Temples of Apollo and Athena – reputedly the site of Cleopatra and Mark Antony’s romantic trysts.
