Visite de la cascade latérale de Perge Aspendos

It was an amazing tour of Perges, Aspendos and Side! Our guide Kağan (or the joker) was amazing! He was full of useful information but was also funny and entertaining. The historic ruins at all 3 places were incredible but were really brought to life by Kağan with all his interesting stories! It would not have been the same seeing those beautiful sights without him as a guide. The whole day was great! Perges, Aspendos and Side should not be missed!

First of all, I would like to say a big thank you to Yunus at Solymos Travel. I booked three tours with him and this was the first. His advice on which to do based on my interests was excellent and yesterday’s lived up to all my expectations. It was a full day starting with an 8.20 from the hotel. We first visited Perge with its amazing ancient ruins including the theatre and Roman baths. The guide Khan was brilliant!!! Very knowledgeable and he had a real passion for sharing his incredible insights on this place and the others we were to visit. He explained everything very clearly and showed us around the site before giving us a little time to ourselves. Before I go any further I should say the timing at all the stops was perfect. We seemed to arrive everywhere just before the crowds of people and the time allotted for each stop was spot on. The next stop was Apsendos where Khan continued to share his remarkable historical knowledge. Do you know the difference between a theatre and an amphitheater? Well, I didn’t either until this tour. There were so many snippets of interesting information - I’m sure you will be impressed! We then had lunch (which was OK - nothing amazing but it was included in the cost of the tour) before proceeding to the waterfall. This was a nice short stop, but it really didn’t warrant too much more time there. Side, on the other hand, was our final stop. Here Khan did his excellent guiding once again before giving is a little time to walk around ourselves. It was actually just enough time to see a few other places and get a pomegranate beer (definitely a must for beer drinkers and a must must if you like pomegranate too). After this we headed back to our hotels. Fortunately, I was one of the people in the first drop off so was back by 5pm. However, it was a very small group with only 8 people so I don’t envisage the others getting back much later. All in all, it was a very enjoyable tour with a great guide!!!

It was a very complete tour. The guide, Kagan, proved to know what he explained and elaborated on the subject. I also liked that the program stuck to what we were, archaeological and historical tour, no showroom or shopping.

Fatima is a very informative, professional guide keeping everything enjoyable and organised. Perge is a fascinating site and Aspendos superb. Excellent local Turkish lunch. Didn't need the waterfall stop - much too commercial. Side is beautiful but has changed its character from 2 years ago.

Got a good overview of these historical sites with a guide who had lots of knowledge. It was well organised and they even organised a 2nd transport due to high interest in the tour. Well worth a day out.

Communication of pick up times , the itinerary for the day by the company and the guide was excellent. The trip gave a good introduction to the places visited. As with these trips a little longer at each venue would be welcome but it was packed day so it was a good balance between free time and guided time. The Guide was excellent. Lunch was good and the restaurant made a veggie dish for those who were vegetarian. The trip was for 18 people max but there were 12 of us so mini bus was not crowded. We beat all the bigger tour buses so we had Perge almost to ourselves. Over all good company to go with and I thought good value for money.

Amazing experience and the guide was very good. The transport was comfortable as well and timely pick up.

Finally! What a great tour without the usual sales stops. Our guide Tuly was EXCEPTIONAL and driver Mehmet a careful driver. We learnt so much from Tuly who has over 30 years experience as a guide. The restaurant for lunch was authentic home style with excellent food. I wish all our experiences had been as good as this! You can book directly with them.

It was a very nice trip with Cigil as our guide and Adil as a driver. We got a lot of interesting insights about ancient history and as well timing was just perfect. Thank you!

Very organised tour of the historic sites, our guide Cigil was excellent. She gave key highlights and was very informative throughout of all the sites and culture of Turkey.
