Description
Discover Alanya on a day trip from Side. Ride a cable car up to Alanya Castle, visit the Red Tower, explore Damlataş Cave, and enjoy free time at Cleopatra Beach or in the town center.
Leave Side behind for a day and discover Alanya, the town crowned by a Seljuk fortress above the sea. After hotel pickup in the Side area, the drive east along the coast takes about an hour.
Start at the harbor with the Red Tower (Kızıl Kule), the octagonal 13th‑century tower that became the symbol of the town, and see the old Seljuk shipyard next to it. Ride the cable car up to Alanya Castle for wide views over Cleopatra Beach and the peninsula, then walk the old walls and narrow lanes of the castle quarter.
Back at sea level, step inside Damlataş Cave with its dripping stalactites, and finish with free time at Cleopatra Beach or in the town center for shopping and a coffee by the harbor before the drive back to Side.
