This message is particularly aimed at members currently out of the country who may be coming back in time to take part in the trip to Antalya on 1st – 2nd April.

We currently have 15 people who have reserved places and we would like to increase that and hire a 27-seater coach for the trip.

We’ll leave Fethiye on Wednesday 1st April around 8.30am and drive to Antalya.

We’ll meet our guide, landscape architect Bayram Özen, who will take us to visit 2-3 hotel gardens before we check in to our hotel.

Dinner will be in the hotel as will breakfast the next morning.

After breakfast Bayram will take us on a final garden visit and then we’ll visit his nursery for a plant buying binge before returning to Fethiye.

We will be back around 6pm on 2nd April.

The cost will include transport, accommodation and dinner, bed and breakfast.

We aim to keep it under 100TL per person on a shared double room basis.

So if you want to take part please e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with details and we’ll put actual cost on the website as soon as possible.

1st April is Fethiye Times’ 4th birthday and we hope to celebrate that in Antalya with as many Gardening Club members as possible.
