# Antalya with kids: an itinerary for the day

> With children, Antalya is best for water and open space. In the morning — Hıdırlık Tower and the lanes of the old town, Kaleiçi, down to the Roman harbour; after lunch — the waterfall that falls straight into the sea, and ancient Perge with its stadium and colonnaded street, where there is room to run.

## Things to do in Antalya with kids

We picked places that interest children and left out long museums. The morning is the old town: the tower on the cliff, the boats in the Roman harbour, the narrow lanes. After lunch — the Lower Düden waterfall and Perge.

Rides are by taxi: Kaleiçi to the waterfall is about 40 minutes, and from there to Perge about an hour. If the children are tired, leave Perge for another day.

## More family activities in Antalya

A short boat trip from the Kaleiçi harbour to the waterfalls is popular with children. The Upper Düden waterfall is a shady park with a cave behind the water (paid). [Aspendos](https://yesgo.io/turkey/antalya/aspendos), with its huge theatre, is another half day.

## With kids in summer: heat and water

In summer start at 8–9 am, spend midday in the shade or by the sea, and do Perge towards evening. Perge and the waterfall have little shade: hats, water and sunscreen are a must.

## Antalya with a toddler

A buggy is easy at the waterfall and in the park by Hıdırlık Tower, hard in Kaleiçi because of the cobbles and steps. With small children, cut the route to the tower, the harbour and the waterfall, without Perge.

## Tips

- The Lower Düden waterfall park is free and open around the clock — you can come for the sunset too.
- Perge has almost no shade: come in the morning or after 16:00 and bring water.
- Boats to the waterfalls leave from the Kaleiçi harbour — agree the price before boarding.
- Taxis are easier than buses with children.
- Carry snacks and water — there are no cafés at the ruins.
