Why This Tour Excels for Adventure Lovers
This tour offers a nicely balanced mix of aerial and underwater experiences, each providing a unique perspective of Fethiye’s natural beauty. We loved the way the guides made safety a priority, especially during the paragliding. The ascent from Ölüdeniz to Babadağ, the highest flight point at nearly 2,000 meters, promises spectacular views that make every step worth it. The instructors, who speak both English and Turkish, are praised for their professionalism and patience, making even first-timers feel at ease.
Right after soaring through the sky, you’ll switch gears to scuba diving, a surprisingly calming contrast. The route typically involves departure from Fethiye Kordon, with a scenic boat trip to Dalyan Bay or Aquarium Bay, depending on conditions. The underwater landscape here is described as peaceful and magical, with opportunities to see marine life up close.
The logistics are well-organized. Transfers are smooth, with comfortable, air-conditioned vehicles handling the travel between the hotel, the office on Ölüdeniz beach, and the mountain. The entire day is thoughtfully scheduled, with enough time allocated for safety briefings, equipment setup, and the actual experiences.
From reviews, it’s clear that the views from Babadag are a highlight, with guests noting that the flight duration of around 30 minutes feels just right. Many mention how the professional guidance and well-maintained equipment contribute vastly to their confidence and enjoyment.

Considerations
The tour spans most of the day, making it ideal for those prepared for a full schedule. The age restriction for diving (14+) means younger children might want to skip that part. Also, as the activities are weather-dependent, there might be slight schedule adjustments.
The Value of This Experience
Considering the combined cost of separate activities, this package offers excellent value—especially given the professional guidance, equipment, transfers, and insurance included. For travelers wanting a hassle-free, safe experience with a balanced mix of adventure and comfort, it’s a compelling option.
The 30-minute flight alone might cost more if booked separately, and the boat trip helps maximize the underwater experience without additional planning. Many reviews highlight how well-organized and smoothly run the day is, making it a favorite among those who prefer stress-free adventure.
Who Should Consider This Tour?
If you’re adventurous and eager to try both flying and swimming in the same day, this tour is perfect. It’s especially suited for first-timers who want reassurance from experienced guides. Those who love panoramic views and underwater tranquility will find plenty to love.
It’s also an excellent choice for families with older children (over 14 for diving), couples, or groups seeking a memorable, diverse day out. However, travelers who prefer a slower pace or more time to explore each activity separately might find the schedule a bit tight.
