We had a great experience. The tour sites are beautiful and definitely worth the visit. Our guide (Birol) was top notch. He is local and know the place and its history. We learned a lot with him. The transfer was great as well, a very good and comfortable van. I definitely recommend this tour and Birol as your guide. 5 stars. Birol

Worth the money . The guide was excellent ( named herself as Marvellous) she was actually Marvellous. Very supportive. Infact we did land up an extra destination - pottery making and craft- as it was within time . They were punctual. Our tour time was 10 am. We reached hotel around 4:30pm. There were total 3 ticketed destinations ( 12€, 6 € and 20 €. ) it was your option to enter them. We entered all of them and collected loads of memories and photo ops. Thank you team !
