- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 พ.ค. 2024
- Episode 38 - We hire a car from Didim and enjoy one of the world's best coastal drives along the Turkish Riviera which is also known as the Turquoise Coast. We start of our journey in Didim which is also home to the temple of Apollo. We discover the local farmers market in Didim before we drive to Bodrum then Göcek, Fethiye and arrive at the famous resort town of Ölüdeniz before sunset. What makes Ölüdeniz so famous is its stunning Blue Lagoon and with the backdrop of Babadağ Mountain where paragliders come from all over the world to paraglide from the 2000m high mountain and land down on the beach. From Ölüdeniz we drive down to Kas which might happen to be our favorite place along the Turkish Riviera. We enjoy the day around old town and find some of the best beaches along the Turkish Riviera. From Kas we drive up to Finike and reach our final destination at Antalya where we stay in the old town.

How mich days you have spend for the Trip? From didim to antalya ?
We had just over one week but also went to Ephesus👍🏽🤠
Turkey is one of the most beautiful countries
I would like to correct a mistake. Kaş was not a Greek city in the early 1920s. Byzantines lived in this region before the Turks, and it was never the city of today's Greece. Turker settled in the region in the 1300s. It was an Ottoman city where mostly Greeks lived (this is a more accurate term).
Extra note: I can say that this is the first time I see someone choosing real Turkish music as their music choice.
Thank you very for making the effort to correct that. Everyday is a class room 😊 Love the Turkish culture and music makes the video feel more authentic in our view. Thanks again for your comment 🤠👍🏼
Yes, was Byzantium. What was Ottoman then? You got your correction. Gerçekleri değişteremezssin istesende, istemesende, ölene kadar senin için acı olan gerçeği duyucakcın.
What a fair dinkum adventure! Great video very much enjoyed it. I had no idea Turkey was so beautiful what a stunning part of the world. This will be our next holiday destination after watching this ✈⛵
Glad you enjoyed it and enjoy your trip to Turkey 👍🏼🤠
Thank you very much for this great video.Turkey is one of the most beautiful countries I know. Turkish markets,Turkish people are so good.
Totally agree it is definitely one of the most diverse countries we have visited 😊
Turkey looks like a great place to visit. Great video and love your style of presenting places. It's real and down to earth. Just for the record I hate bloody polished fancy dressed presenters/vloggers look at me, look at me 🤮
Thank you Lucas👍🏼 Yeah mate we just tring to be ourselves in front of camera. What you see is what you get 😜
Turkiye is for sure one of the best destinations to visit! Great history, nice people, warm hospitality, food, and beautiful nature make your holiday fantastic! I have been visiting Turkey for the summer holiday since 2005, mostly in the Bodrum area, and I hope this will continue in the current year as well..
Totally agree such a beautiful layed back place for a holiday. Enjoy your future trips 👍🏼🤠
@@FairDinkumAdventure thanks bro👍👍
I was at Fethiye/Ölüdeniz are in the early 80,s i stayed in a cabin and the farmer drove our group out to the campsite on a trailer behind his tractor,I can’t believe the development since then .one thing I’m sure that hasn’t changed is the hospitality of the people of Türkiye.
Wow that would have been a great experience, thanks for sharing! Yes Turkish hospitality hasn't changed ❤
Brilliant guys, simply brilliant!! Menekşe’s roots are Turkish and we love exploring this beautiful country!! Her parents live just outside Didum and buy their fruits and veg at that bazaar every Friday. We had to take a close look to see if we could see them 😀
Really looking forward to follow your Turkish journey 👏👏👏
Cheers,
Menekşe and James
Thank you guys! 😃Would have been funny if we did film her parents there 😅 What a beautiful place to call home, we just love that part of the world 👍🤠
Türkiye is the best 🇹🇷
It is a wonderful place for sure ❤
@@FairDinkumAdventure will you visit to cappadocia ,Pamukkale or Black sea Region in Türkiye ?

They went to Antalya without stopping by Olymposs Phaseliss Kemer. There were many beautiful places from Finike to Antalya.
Time was the issue but more reason to come back 🤠👍🏼
@@FairDinkumAdventure 👍😍
Hi Guys nice to see some Aussies vlogging their travels I can’t believe I’ve only just found your channel after watching others for the last 18 months. Hubby and I will be on the road in about two years and Turkey is defs high on the list. Thanks for showing some of the places along the coastline I’ve now added a few more stops to our travels 😂 safe travels
G'day guys glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah Turkey is such a beautiful place and a bucket list destination for sure. Next weeks video is on Cappadocia and is also another destination in Turkey you have to experience. We hope your travel plans come together 👍🏼🤠
I want to experience Turkish Riviera
Watched every bit of the video with deep longing for those places. Love from NOLA🥰
Awesome! Thank you Nola for taking the time to watch the video. We are so glad you enjoyed it. We can see why you would have a longing to go there 😍
Sehr interessanter vlog, wir sind fast jedes Jahr in Istanbul, aber nach diesem Video werden wir auch eine Rund tour machen 👌👍 Türkei ❤
Awesome 😀 Istanbul is great but love the Turkish Riviera...Enjoy 😍
Thank you for the video. This is almost the same route we plan to take. The video is wonderfully shot which adds to the excitement of going there. However just wondering which month of the year you were traveling? We are going in Sept and wondering how the weather will be.
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it 🙏🏼 We did the road trip late August last year. Weather was very hot so we always made time for the beach to cool down. Hope you have a great trip 🤠👍🏼
Introduce Turkey as a documentary, so those who watch you will come to Turkey. On behalf of the Turkish people, I would like to thank you. Have a nice day.
Thank you very much 🙏🏼 Lots of time and effort go into putting these video's together. Your comment makes us feel it was definitely worth it 💚
Wow, music and the view of the sea and the city is so impressive. Thank you.
Thank you glad you enjoyed it 👍🏼🤠
If you were to swim at Konyaaltı beach in the center of Antalya, you wouldn't have to pay. It is the longest public beach in the center of Antalya
Yes thank you for that next time 🏊♂️ But we were stay in old town and that beach was very close to our hotel 👍🏼🤠
Thanks for showing such an interesting and beautiful country. So much history and so unique.
Our pleasure!

4:20, correction, it IS the biggest tea drinking country in the whole world.
Wellcome to Türkiye . Nice vlog. Thnx
Thank you 👍🏼🤠
Amazing.
Hope one day I'll repeat your journey.
Thank you.
As a half Turkish Greek man (my dad side is Turkish whereas my mother side is Greek where it is called Crete, Hania) I can say that Turkish riviera has changed more than I thought over the years when I saw the video without a doubt. The organization, the quality of roads, the opportunities of accommodation and so on. Greece is still incomporable when it comes to the beauty we're surrounded by; yet, Turkey tends to be a better option than Greece in a long term if they want to do, including the families and retired people compared to Greece hosts per year.
Wow how lucky are you to have two of our favourite cultures and the food choices. Thanks for your comment 💙❤
I have been in Greece twice, Greece is only more beautiful than Turkiye in marketing, big cities are ugly in Greece, you can't compare Athens with Istanbul or Thessaloniki with Izmir. I think only Santorini is very beautiful in Greece but Turkiye has Cappadocia, Pamukkale, Ephesus. Much more beauiful places.
Yes no one likes the big cities. To really experience and see a place you have to go out into the country, explore and spend time with the locals 😎👌
Tourist numbers data doesn't quite confirm you, my friend. Greece is far behind Turkey in terms of tourist attraction. I think you're stuck in an echo chamber.
Very Nice video.We enjoyed watching it.
Thank you very much we are both glad you all enjoyed watching it 🙂
Thanks for the trip back in time , really wanted to see Antalya again .
Certainly got bigger since 1968 :-)
Yet the old harbour is still there .
Was on the school ship MS Uganda , med cruise , was 14 :-)
Ship was too big to dock , ashore in the lifeboats :-)
Also went to an ampitheatre , the sound system really works .
Apparently St John was walking the area .
Few of us got chatting with some guys in a ' cafe' close to the harbour .
One offered a friend a drink , was clear , thought it was water :-) NOT :-)
Welcome to Ouzo :-) Was a bit of a shock , we were still only 14 :-)
Was suspicious of the " Turkish Delight ' on sale at the quay , was correct , grotty boiled sweets !
Did you see any puzzle rings , were really cheap back then , we found out later they were puzzle rings :-)
Dang , looks like it was all that time ago . Can also see us in that taverna just behind the ruins :-) And tree :-) Or just a little further back :-)
Thanks :-)
Wow lots of memories but yes some things have changed. You must go back for a visit again 👍🏼😉
Didim is cool i like this place very much. Altınkum means Goldensand. Kum=Sand, Altın=Gold
nice content congratulations
Great video guys.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏼🤠
@@FairDinkumAdventure Definitely enjoyed it. The coast of Turkey is amazing and the food is magnificent
Couldn't agree more bro! Thanks for tip on Adana Kebab 👍🏽
antalya has the worlds longest beach and besy beaches free just go to lara bech oryou need to be in places like kemer, belek, side alanya for breaches also top hotels are in these resoprts
Thank you the tip will definitely check those out next time 😊💙
awesome videography
Glad you liked it 👍🏼🤠
❤❤❤❤❤
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
👍👍👍
Sadly you missed Dalyan and the beautiful Iztuzu beach
Great Video - how long did you guys spend driving from Didim to Antalya, how many nights did you spend in each town?
Thanks very much 🙏🏼 We had one week but i think two weeks would be much better. So much more to see that we had to miss.....next time 👍🏼🤠
In 20000 years people will walk down to the water again past the ruins of what used to be a road.😅😅😅😮😮😮😊😊😊
Hahaha yeah old transportation technology...now we just teleport 😂
did we not drink tea few decades ago?🤣
I always thought Turkey was a coffee drinking country but more tea by the looks 🤔☕👍🏼
@@FairDinkumAdventure , great video.
Yes Turks were coffee drinkers originally and through the Ottomans,
coffee was introduced to world becoming Turkish Coffee worldwide.
When Ottomans lost Yemen where coffee was imported from, it became expensive Tea was introduced and grown in the black sea region and became more popular by 1940's and tea was integrated with one most popular breakfast in world i think being Turkish breakfast i am sure you enjoyed.
Now the Turks are biggest tea drinkers worldwide around 3-4 kg per person annually.
Amazing love that history and info would have been good to use in the video
Çay olmaz ise olmazımızdır.çaysız bir günümü düşünemiyorum.Türk kahvesi ise başka bir Dünya tadını bir kere alan kesinlikle mudavimi olacaktır.@@FairDinkumAdventure
Great video. What month was this?
Thank you! We were there in August & September 😊
Awesome Video! Could I ask where you hired your car for the trip as there are many mixed reviews
Thanks Daniel 🙏🏼 We hired the car from Europcar in Kusadasi and returned it to them at Antalya Airport. We had to pay extra because we were not returning it back to Kusadasi 👍🏼🤠
Curious if you felt the sea water to be any warmer in Antalya than it was in Oludeniz? Great video by the way! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 👍🏼🤠 As regards the water temp didnt really notice any difference between the two places but was refreshing from the hot summer sun 😀
@FairDinkumAdventure is this video recent or when was your visit?
Summer last year August 23
(Kum+sal) kumsal= beach ;)
Sehr schön und Sau teuer
CORRECTION: “KUM” MEANS NOT BEACH. IT MEANS SAND. SO IT IS “GOLDEN SAND”.
Thank you 🙏🏼
@@FairDinkumAdventure YOU ARE WELCOME. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO❤
Der Australier behauptete daß ,die Türken eigeblich erst seit 20 Jahren Tee trinken .Das stimmt aber überhaupt nicht. Die Türken haben schon immer Tee getrunken ( vor allem am Frühstück) getrunken .
Schöne Grüße aus Berlin ❤
No way paragliding I’m not doing it😂😂😂
hi! how many days did u spend on this road trip? we want do the same and may be the same route))
Hi, we hired the car in Kusadasi and dropped it off at the Antalya Airport. Because it was not return we had to pay an extra cost of a one way hire fee through Europcar Hire. We had just over one week and visited Ephesus first. We think next time we would take a few extra days as there were some other beautiful places we had to miss because of time. Hope that info helps 👍🏼🤠

Çay is turkish traditional drink for decades.. you don't know how long the Çay has been in turkish community for years and years. Keep searching the history of TÜRKİYE
Yeah but how long it is? Before the embargos in 60's, tea wasn't really a Turkish thing. Hell, it was some Englishman who actually realised Eastern Black Sea region is suitable for tea growing
Turkish tradition revolves around coffee. Not tea
@@subutaynoyan5372 Erste Teesamen wurde im Jahr 1787 aus Japan gebracht. Die Konsum war klein und begrenzt. 1924 Zihni Derin hat mit staatlicher Unterstützung angefangen Tee Plantagen an der Schwarzenmeerküste in der Stadt Rize anzubauen. Im Jahre 1940 wurde 1. Fabrik für trockene, schwarze Tee gebaut und Staatliche Schutz für die Tee Anbau gesetzlich verankert. Bereits 50 er Jahre war das Tee als beliebte Getränk überall in der Türkiye getrunken. Meine Mutter ist 1943, in Alanya Türkiye zur Welt gekommen, als Kind haben die Tee getrunken. Also war diese Getränk bereits in jedem Haushalt.
Liebe Grüße und danke für die wunderschöne Eindrücken, Videos aus meinem Mutterland❤
Your welcome and thank you for your comment on Turkish history of Tea 💙
What ıs real estate like over there?any information will be helpful. Thanks. DIDIM AND AKBUK
Not sure sorry 🤷🏽♂️
when is made this video?Which month?
Filmed August and September last year 👍🏼🤠
The comments regarding the Turkish tea history was wrong..Turks drinks tea and coffee since Ottoman time! Turks didn't learn tea culture from India like British did!!
Thank you for you comment but the history books say otherwise that tea arrived to Türkiye from Japan for the first time in 1894 during the reign of Abdülhamid the second. From then on, tea became a popular beverage in the Ottoman palace, however outside the palace the public did not know it until the mid 20th century
i come from the north go to galipoli where all thye aqustrqalian soldiers were in the galipoli war
Yeah that would awesome to see the Galipoli area 🤠👍🏼
start from istanbul drive to galipoli then cross the sea via the new bridge to pergamon and troy then down to izmir see ephesus continue to didim, bodrum, marmaris, datca, dalyan, fethiye, oludeniz, kalkan, kas, antalya, belek, side, alanya
@@FairDinkumAdventure
kum means sand not beach
Thank you for the correction that makes more sense golden sands 👍🏼🤠
@@FairDinkumAdventure and also stone>taş, soil>toprak, dust>toz, rock>kaya, gravel>çakıl, concrete>beton, cement>çimento, rubble>moloz etc.I thought you might need it if you want to stay here and build a house.😂
Kumsal is beach or Sahil you can say.
or Plaj
Hahaha would love to 😅
Hi guys while I loved your trip, I really feel as presenter s of Turkiye ,you should really learn the correct way to pronounce the names of different places and things!
Thank you for your comment yes thats one of the hardest things as travellers when you are only in a place for a short time to know exactly how to pronounce the name of places especially in another language that is not ours 🥴
It is so funny when you hear English speaking people to try to pronounce the new name of Turkey (Turkiye) cause Erdogan didn't like the similarity to the well known bird .
Sometimes you just dont know which one to say as many of the local still call it Turkey
The name Turkey was giving due to the ignorance of the West at that time. Türkiye means land of Turks like Thailand or Deutchland. İt is our country so we have right to choose the name. More over Türkiye is the aproved name by the UN. İt is our country so İt is Türkiye.. Thats İt
@@FairDinkumAdventure The actual word should be Turkia in English, it was what Atatürk and his friends called the country actually. But, because of a thing called "Vowel Harmony" which is intrinsical to Turkish language, Türkiya does not sound Turkic. Because you can't have ü, i and also "a" in a Turkic originated word.
From 1200 years until today, these lands belong to the Turks. Since then, they have neither been Greek nor the lands of other countries. You are being a bit offensive when you say they are Greek lands.
Sorry but you completely miss understand. All the Greek Islands we are referring to are all those that are part of Greece and NOT Turkey Kos, Kalymnos, Rhodos and many more that are off the coast of mainland Turkey
What this man saying that turkish did not drink tea couple of years ago is not correct Tea was planting In Turkiye since 1924 to 1938 but drinking and knowing tea is dated back centuries before as you know during ottomans time Today Turkiye was playing important role along silk road many Chinese persian and Indian products reach Europe through Ottomans empire also Turks as nation were among first nation in the world to contact ancient Chinese as they were neighbors
They also invade and dominate china several times in the ancient time
şu arap müziği saçmalıklarını bırakın artık. bizler türküz arka planda çalanlar türk müziği değiller
Why should they stop?? There video there choice, you dont have to watch it. Nothing wrong with the music goes perfectly with the video and they never said it was Turkish music
The arabic music is more popular and more beautiful nobody said it's a turkish music
