We had such a magical day on this boat tour! From start to finish it was perfect and the captain and Jade were amazing and so helpful. They served the most delicious lunch (you need to pay extra but very reasonable price) and swam in the most beautiful sea. So so worth it for the money - it’s an incredible experience! We’d love to do it again every day of our holiday.
It was an excellent life time experience, from start to finish. I will recommend speak to Soner in the office, he gave me special offer & explained exactly how to get to the boat & then in the boat was an experience which I never felt before. Brilliant hospitality. Love Turkey. Will visit definitely again with family.
We were very pleased with the staff and the tour. We will definitely book again
We had a very good time on our boat trip to Kekova. Besides seeing the Sunken City, we also enjoyed the cold but pleasant swim at the beach. The castle had very nice views and we enjoyed having orange juice there. The ship captain served us nice meals, lots of Turkish tea, fruits and biscuits. Highly recommended!
If you are looking for a quiet day and beautiful Mediterranean corners, this is NOT your boat, get away! The visit we were looking for to the summer city of Kekova turned out to be a pachanguero cruise ship with 200 Turks on board and full-throated music. Instead of stopping in the ruins our ship was stopping in beautiful coves crowded with several ships with their 200 Turks on board. Despite everything, the food included in the pack was very good and the setting was unbeatable.
Had the privilege of spending 4 glorious hours on a magnificent Gulet ( traditional Turkish boat ), swimming, getting amazing historical insights into the ancient ruins by the sea and having a few cold beers. The tour was arranged so easily by Orhan from Before Travel and I just want to say thanks to him the super Skipper and crew. The Demre coastal area of Turkey is a hidden gem as it is not built up and over run by hordes of selfish tourists. My trip was so wonderful and such amazing value. Do yourself a favour and visit Demre and do a cruise
I was looking for a daily boat trip from Demre to Kekova island. Since it was just the beginning of the season it was not as easy as in the high seaons. I found BeforeTravel on TripAdvisor which had a good rating. They totaly deserve it - they arranged the trip in the same morning, were very responsive and friendly. Many thanks to their employee Ali. I totaly recommend them. The boat trip to Kekova was with the boat Cin 5 which I also recommend.
I do appreciate their professional approach and amazing service to make our holiday unforgettable. Friendly and welcoming. Easy to reach for any updates and questions.
Thank you so much for your candid review
