A journey that once began with a few seedlings… Today, it transforms into purple fields and fragrant summer memories. Stepping into the lavender fields in the cool morning air, we touch this unique plant whose color captivates dreams and whose scent envelops memories. In the purple horizon of Kuyucak, time slows down; photographs are taken, but what truly remains are our feelings. With the cool blue of Eğirdir Lake, the tranquility of Yeşilada Island, and the sky-reaching view of Akpınar, this journey becomes not just a trip; it becomes a summer break reserved for itself. More than just a plant, lavender offers a unique experience away from routine, with a scent that lingers in your memory. TOUR PROGRAM
DAY 1: SALDA LAKE - EĞİRDİR LAKE – YEŞİLADA – CAN ISLAND - AKPINAR VILLAGE

We meet at Eşref Girginç Park at 7:00 AM and begin our journey to the land of lavender. After a free breakfast break along the way, we reach our first enjoyable stop of the day.
We add a short but colorful break to our journey. At the famous Serinhisar Chickpea Shop, we listen to how a small Anatolian town gained great fame with its chickpeas, crowning our enjoyable journey with a pleasant conversation. Afterwards, Salda Lake, famous for its turquoise waters, welcomes us. This crater lake, whose colors change from the shore to the depths, more than deserves to be called the Maldives of Turkey with its natural beauty and striking appearance. Our enjoyable walks and photo stops around Lake Salda create the first unforgettable moments of the day. After our visit to Salda, we arrive in Burdur and have a free lunch break. Guests who wish can try Burdur's famous shish kebab. After lunch, to add cultural depth to this thematic journey, we visit the Burdur Archaeology Museum. This special museum, whose history dates back to the 7th millennium BC, presents 9,000 years of human history, from the Pisidia Region to Rome, from the Neolithic period to the present day, in a highly impressive way. This visit adds a meaningful historical layer to our nature and landscape-focused day. Afterwards, we turn our route to the heart of the lake region. Around Lake Eğirdir, we take a panoramic tour with views of Dündar Bey Madrasa, Eğirdir Castle, Can Island and Yeşilada, and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of the lake. The final scene of the day is Akpınar Village, known as the eagle's nest. During our tea and coffee break overlooking the lake, we take the most impressive photos of the tour accompanied by the lights of the sunset.
In the evening, we settle into our hotel in Isparta. We have our dinner and stay at the 5★ Barida Hotels, which stands out with its comfort and quality of service; we happily conclude our themed and fulfilling day. (ISPARTA ACCOMMODATION – 5★ Barida Hotels)

DAY 2: KUYUCAK VILLAGE LAVENDER GARDENS – MARMARIS
After breakfast at the hotel, we set off for one of the most special destinations of the lavender season. Upon arriving at Kuyucak Village in Isparta, famous for its lavender production, the day is bathed in shades of purple from the very first moments. We enter the lavender gardens in the cool morning air and fully experience this unique atmosphere that captivates the eyes with its color and the memory with its scent. We take walks among the lavender fields and take plenty of photo breaks to immortalize this visual feast. Guests who wish can participate in lavender harvesting and take their own lavender bouquets as souvenirs. In the stalls set up in the gardens, we have the opportunity to examine and purchase lavender oil, lavender water, soap, tea, lavender honey, and various village products produced by the villagers themselves. This section shows that lavender is not just a plant; It transforms into a special experience that makes you feel the product of labor, patience, and tradition. We depart for our free lunch at the time specified by our guide. After lunch, we catch the calm rhythm of village life with a short stroll among the traditional Kuyucak houses, which consist of adobe, stone, and wood structures.
Leaving behind this pleasant day filled with the scent of lavender and purple memories, we begin our journey back to Marmaris. In the evening, we drop you off at the points where we picked you up, and say goodbye until we meet again on another Koral Travel trip.
