49 Pounds each!!!!!!!!!!. Kin hell that's about 35 Pounds more than anyone else. You could try Seker boat at Calis, just along from the Calis taxi boat.

In Fethiye last night I saw one of the boat companies offering half day boat trips, but cannot recall which one it was. It was near to where you get off the water taxi.

If you go down to the Calis Taxi Boat Office you can book a trip there and you will not be paying Thomson's prices..(Most regulars would collapse if they heard a boat trip was £49.00 each).  It is around £10.00 for a day with food.  Not sure about half day trip, but you could ask.   
I am sure other members will be able to advise you a bit more.
Best advise is book all trips locally and not with Thomson's who will rip you off.

Carole and tayfun. Have done half day last two years and no music. Two adults and two kids about £30. Buy drinks on board. Writing from Calis in Joseph's bar. Used the agent a third a way a long to the right from the bridge. Book two trips and get a Turkish massage free.

Carol & tayfun half day only goes on a Tuesday , if it's a case you don't fancy a long day on a boat you could even do carol & tayfun gocek trips on a Sunday

Was just about to suggest a trip to Gocek, we always enjoy that trip.

It's a full day out but not all spent on the boat.  You'll sail to Gocek, spend about 2 to 3 hours there (depending on which trip you do) then back on the boat and usually one stop on the way home for a swim.  It won't include lunch but plenty of good restaurants in Gocek for you to eat. 

As for Thomsons charging £49!!   :o :o :o

Ask around in Calis and you'll see how much they are making out of that!

Thanks everyone , we have been coming here for ten years and always had a jeep to travel all over , my OH has never wanted to go on a boat unless it's the little one to fetihay , but he has said he will try one this year and then he decided to ask the rep at the hotel of the cost ... I knew it was over the top , but wasn't sure by how much , we will have a walk on the front today and see what's on offer

Are you staying at the Oykun?  I remember a little boat at Fethiye Harbour by the Address Cafe.  It was green and white and always had a sign up for day trips.
