Title: Yaka Park
Post by: kenkay on July 25, 2016, 17:39:40 PM

Is it possible to get to Yaka Park by dolmus? I should know after coming for so long  :(

You can't get all the way by dolmus. Some of the Saklikent dolmuses go up to Tlos on their way to the gorge. It's still a bit of a slog up to Yaka Park from there.

If you haven't got your own transport, you're probably best off getting a dolmus to Kemer and then getting a Taxi from there and asking the driver to wait for you at Yaka Park.

Oh yes. Remember there's more than one establishment claiming to be Yaka Park.  ;)

Still think it best to hire a car and make your own way, in your own time.

Of course, finances allowing.

Guess UK£ 20.00/ £25.00 per day for car hire but that's a year ago.

Didn't come across the "fake park" but there are far better informed posters than I on this forum and I was probably lucky.

I've always been far happier hiring a car and occasionally getting lost. There've also been happy accidents where I've found some roadside gems e.g. a stone baked trout and flatbread for 4 Lira! (and no tummy upset).

Driving on your own opens up a world of different experiences.

  As you climb up to the end of the road the first park is a copy of the second, higher real park. Well worth a visit.

  Meals available and a unique bar, along with super seating areas to take it all in and chill out.
