What people are saying about Side

Ça a été une très belle excursion de détente. Le déjeuner a été très bon avec du poisson frais ou bien de la viande et légumes/pâtes/ris à volonté. Le guide a été discret mais présent et le chauffeur a été très professionnel et attentif dans la conduite du bus. Personnellement je n’ai pas fait la baignade car l’eau été trop froide à mon goût mais beaucoup de gens ont bien profité. Une belle journée à faire.

Really good trip with an excellent guide who was good at English and very friendly. Cool trip on a pirate boat and nice lunch by the river. We had more time at the cable car and the castle than the others as we lived in the center which was nice, otherwise it would have been too little time.

We were really excited. Everything was right here, from the pick-up, which took place on time, to the off-road tour, lunch and the boat trip. We've never had so much fun on a tour. Next time I would like to use this seller again. Only to recommend. Thank you for the wonderful day.

We had a fabulous day. Our tour guide was brilliant, very knowledgeable, extremely funny and spoke to everyone individually throughout the day making sure we were enjoying ourselves. I would thoroughly recommend the tour and the guide.

Really nice, relaxing day out. Plenty of things offered to keep you occupied during the trip like swimming and jet skis, or just relax all day like we did. Food was great and staff were friendly. Great day out and value for money.
