I want to come again!
It was a tour with a gentle and nice guide Ozan. The meal was in the buffet and it was nice to have a taste of Turkish food. The drinks were paid for, but they were terrible. It's quite a long time to get in the car, and during this time, the guide will have time to share a funny story about the region of Antalya with the world map. When you arrive at the limestone, Hierapolis, you have 2 hours of free time! The weather in Antalya is so turbulent that it is uncomfortable, so when you arrive, when the sky is clear, we recommend going to the brick spring!

소중한 후기 감사합니다! 😊 오잔 가이드와 함께한 투어가 즐거우셨다니 정말 기쁩니다. 터키 전통 음식을 다양하게 맛보신 점, 그리고 이동 중에도 유익한 설명으로 시간을 보내셨다니 더욱 보람을 느낍니다. 또한 석회 온천 방문 시 날씨 팁까지 공유해주셔서 감사드리며, 다른 여행자분들께도 큰 도움이 될 것 같습니다. 언제든 다시 찾아주시면 기쁜 마음으로 환영하겠습니다!

En route to Pamukkale
Nice visits but the stone shop was uninteresting, the site hierapolis very well with the lakes but I think it would take at least 3 hours to see the site. On the other hand 3 hours drive is long when you are with a child.
Operator response
Merci beaucoup pour votre retour. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié la visite de Hiérapolis et les lacs. Nous comprenons que le temps de route puisse être long, surtout avec un enfant, et que la boutique n’ait pas retenu votre attention. Votre suggestion concernant la durée de la visite est très pertinente et sera prise en compte pour améliorer nos tours. Nous espérons avoir l’occasion de vous accueillir à nouveau bientôt.

Must-visit places in Türkiye
It was a great experience. Our guide Gapar left us with useful information. It was a new experience to come to a place I had only seen on the Internet. It is a place you must visit once in a shopping center, but it is okay.
Operator response
Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s great that Gapar gave you helpful information and made your visit special. Seeing a place in person after only knowing it online is always exciting. Appreciate your honest thoughts about the shopping center — glad it was still a worthwhile visit!

Beautiful
The day is intense, our Fatima guide was very understandable even in English and very pedagogue. However, at this time, the pool is closed, you can just bathe your feet. You will also not escape the stopshop special tourist
Operator response
Merci beaucoup pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez passé une journée enrichissante et que notre guide Fatima ait su rendre la visite claire et agréable, même en anglais. Effectivement, à cette période de l’année, la piscine est fermée — nous en sommes désolés, et nous veillerons à mieux informer nos visiteurs à l’avance. L’arrêt à la boutique fait partie de l’itinéraire prévu, mais nous comprenons que cela puisse ne pas convenir à tous. Merci pour votre remarque, elle est précieuse pour nous aider à améliorer l’expérience. Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau !
