Uday – United States

we had a wonderful day trip to the Kekova Sunken city and Myra. it was relaxing and we're amazed by the water colors . our Guide Kemal Gurlan was really great in explaining the history of the Sunken city, the cave Tombs , the a theatre in Myra and other stuff. He is such a nice person and even shared some of his personal life experiences with us . He interacted with everyone on the bus and took time to answer the question they had. I would really recommend this trip.

This is a great value trip. our guide Kemal was really knowledgeable, friendly and relaxed. Myra is an incredible place, but the boat trip and chance to swim in the sea was also a real highlight. Well worth it!
