Family adventures in Europe can be especially thrilling in Turkey as parents and children explore this nation that's seen a massive combination of Asian, Middle Eastern and European influences.
There's plenty to do on a week-long trip to country, whether it's a walking tour of historic Istanbul or trying Turkish pancakes in a local village on the Mediterranean coast.
Recreational activities range from snorkeling at the beach to exploring canyons with massive cliff faces. Explore ghost towns in the Turkish countryside, where families can investigate the reasons why people may have emigrated from the area.
Take a mudbath in Dalyan, which has incredibly detoxifying and rejuvenating effects before cruising a coast line that's lined with ancient tombs. Adventure awaits around every river bend and cliff face.
At Fethiye Gulf, families can really splash around in the Mediterranean's warm waters. These adventures are where mom and dad can release their inner child and kids increase their knowledge of the world.
The best way to take a family vacation in Turkey is with a small group of adventure travelers.
Family trips to Turkey remain adventurous and kid-friendly
