Phaselis · Olympos · Chimera — Sunset & Eternal Flames

Three Lycian wonders in one slow day — Phaselis's pine-shaded Roman harbour, Olympos's wild ruined city with sea-turtle nests, and Mount Chimera's eternal flames bursting from the rock at dusk. A photographer's itinerary.

Why book this tour with SooTransfer

Most operators do these three sites separately — they're actually 25 km apart and connect beautifully if you know the road. We combine them so the flame climb falls at dusk (the only time the flames are visible against the dark). One driver, one car, no rushed walk-back-to-the-bus moments.
