Plan to bring kids to Antalya? Here are some activities to try.
Traveling with little children means plenty of bags and some disruption. Avoid worry by booking a direct route to the Antalya airport. Antalya Airport is convenient and has several airline alternatives.
Direct flights reduce the need to dash through a congested airport with kids and bags, and Antalya Terminal is well-organized. The airport is simple to navigate and your bags arrive quickly. Still, traveling with kids may be challenging, and you may need to find practical solutions.
Check if you need an e-visa before visiting Antalya. Even if your kids are on your passport, apply for an e-visa.
Antalya Family Trip
Family travel is easiest with a rented automobile. Because it is hard to get coordinated in a crowd, catching a specialized bus or boarding a city bus with children might be difficult.
Check with your airline or online. Antalya has world-famous vehicle rental firms. Request them to bring a good car for your family to the airport. You can drive anytime you want. Renting a car gives you greater flexibility in the city; you won’t have to rush to take the bus or squeeze into a cab.
Families Outings
Antalya offers family-friendly activities. Even on a tranquil vacation, your kids will become bored. Here are kid-friendly activities.
Antalya Dinopark
Bring your kids to Dinopark Antalya. The park and dinosaurs will take at least 2 hours. The moving and sounding dinosaurs drive the youngsters mad. The park’s modest but elegant signage will teach your kids a lot about dinosaurs. The staff is really helpful and friendly.
In addition to horseback riding, trampolines, private pools, a 5-D movie, and a zip-line for adults, the park has modest cafés and a restaurant. The admission charge is $25 per person, however, this is a children’s park, so you may be disappointed if you want rides for adults.
The park lies in Antalya’s Göynük region, near Kemer. It’s a 2-hour drive.
Aquarium Antalya
This is another fun and educational destination for kids. 40 themed aquariums with actual sea animals. You and your kids may observe beautiful tropical wildlife and native sea animals in Antalya. X-D Cinema offers virtual tours of the world’s seas.
Snow World Ice Museum features igloos and Santa’s residence, and it snows at night. While others melt in the summer heat, you may play in -5 C snow.
Here you will discover open-air cafés and restaurants where you can rest and feed the kids.
Antalya Aquarium is 15 kilometers from Antalya Airport, in the central city near Cam Piramit (Glass Pyramid).
Any tourist agency in Antalya’s city center may organize a trip to the Aquarium, or you can taxi or ride there yourself.
Park of Legends
Antalya’s Disneyland Your kids will love the sea lion and dolphin performances. Thrill rides, slides, and pools are also fun. Children will appreciate taking a boat from Dragon’s Gate to the castle.
You will need an umbrella in Antalya’s park on a scorching day. Bring a hat and reapply sunblock each hour, especially on kids.
Online bookings provide you with a discount at the park. It prevents an hour-long wait at the park’s entrance. We recommend making bookings through one of the city’s travel firms because they receive precedence here on slides and queues.
The park is near Antalya’s Serik neighborhood. 40 minutes by auto, although reserving with a travel agent is better. Transfer and a premium pass are included in the $80 price.
At the entry, they will offer you a wristband that acts as park money. Your group of 4 needs 200TL to dine inside.
Sand-and-Lara Beach
Open-air display of sand sculptures. Children are usually amazed by how big sandcastles can be. Show children how to enhance their sandcastle-building so they can create art. The sculptures depict mythological and historical people. Reading the sculpture explanations is fun and educational.
Sandland is near Lara Beach, so bring your kids swimming, then to the museum after they’re done. They’ll spend an hour here for $3.
Family-Friendly Hotels
Family vacations require practical accommodations. Staying in a resort is great for people who wish to avoid stress when traveling.
Superluxurious hotels include Royal Holiday Palace and Barut Lara.
First, these hotels provide amazing service, so you can enjoy family time. They have pools, are near the ocean, and have showers, making kids’ swimming easy.
Without long walks, you may immediately change out of your swimwear or return to your accommodation for a restroom break.
You can eat cereal, lunch, and supper without setting foot, saving you time.
Exit your apartment and eat whatever at the open buffet. Children can try new activities at this event. Picky eaters will like something.
These hotels provide lots of kid-friendly activities. Animators run daytime shows and games. Family-friendly activities exist. Nighttime theater presentations are one example.
Instead of a busy hotel, take a villa or cottages for more solitude, but fewer conveniences.
Rent a property near the water so you won’t spend much time on the drive; kids grow bored easily.
Seki Cottages provide private rooms, a bath, and a patio.
Private villas offer some services. The main structure has a pool and sauna. Your kids can find some friends or relax in common places.
Cottages are 8 minutes from the coastline. There’s nowhere to purchase groceries, however, the cottage has a kitchen. Nearby eateries are 15 minutes away by car.
If you want your kids to enjoy the outdoors while having an adventure trip, Antalya is the location to do it.
Antalya has bungalows and tent-camping spots. I love Olympus. Choose a campground near the shore to avoid long walks. Tree-houses of Kadir is further from the shore.
The cottages might be basic or lavish with air conditioning. Bring or rent a tent. Showers, cafes, and bars are at all campgrounds.
Your kids will love sleeping in outdoors beneath the stars on a rustic vacation.
