Overview
Olympos Cable Car Tour from Antalya — Mount Tahtali, 2,365m
The Olympos cable car tour from Antalya takes you to the summit of Mount Tahtali at 2,365 metres — one of the highest accessible viewpoints on the Turkish Mediterranean coast. The 4.35km cable car ride, one of the longest in the world, takes 15 minutes each way. At the summit, the temperature is 15–20°C colder than the coast — a jacket is essential even in summer. Cable car ticket included. Hotel pickup from Antalya, Kemer, and Belek. Half-day tour, approximately 4 hours total. Pay on the day — no deposit required.
What to Bring
- A warm layer — the summit is 2,365m above sea level. Even in summer, it is 15–20°C colder than the coast. A jacket or light fleece is not optional.
- Sunglasses — high-altitude UV is intense even when the air feels cool
- Comfortable shoes — the observation area involves walking on uneven terrain
- Camera — views stretch from the Taurus peaks to the Mediterranean on a clear day
- Cash — for the restaurant or café at the summit if you want food or drinks
- Sunscreen — UV exposure at altitude is stronger than at sea level
The cable car ticket is included in your tour price. You do not need to queue or buy tickets separately at the station.
Is This Tour Right for You?
A good fit if: You want a half-day activity with dramatic views that cannot be reached any other way. Mount Tahtali at 2,365m is visible from Antalya’s beaches — this tour takes you to the top. The cable car ride itself (4.35km, one of the longest in the world) is the experience. Clear days offer views of the entire Kemer coastline and the Taurus mountain range. Hotel pickup from Antalya, Kemer, or Belek means no car hire needed.
Not the right fit if: You want to combine the cable car with a full day of sightseeing in Antalya city. The Antalya City Tour with Cable Car includes the Olympos cable car plus waterfalls, boat trip, and Kaleiçi Old Town in one full day. If you want a mountain experience without cable cars, the adventure tours from Antalya include jeep safaris and canyon routes through the Taurus Mountains.
