Great value for money - We had a great time, our guide even added on a few stops not included in the itinerary (Turkish delight tasting). Altogether very good value for money, would recommend.

Side, A beautiful waterfall and ancient Roman ruins. - The Duden waterfalls is an amazing place. A hidden treasure of Antalya. Our tour guide Ibrahim was very knowledgeable and made the whole experience unforgettable. Apart from the waterfall there are loads of little shops and cafes. Definitely not to be missed if you are heading this way. We also visited Side, which is a beautiful with the ruins of the Temple of Apollo, which as impressive now, as a it was no doubt in 2BC, when it was built. Ibrahim of Tourmania is an excellent guide and he made sure we were comfortable and entertained at all times. I think for me the sweetest moment was when he presented all the ladies on the tour with beautiful red flowers. The day was over too quick.

Excellent Trip - The guided tour was excellent because Betty and Alex were perfect tour guides. Betty has explained nearly everything and has a big knowledge about the Roman time. It was not just a tour, it was explained history. We definitely would book another tour with her. Thanks from our site for the tour.

Very interesting tour, would recommend - Good tour with a lot of historical facts about the region. There's so much history, which you wouldn't even think at first! Manavgat waterfalls was a real highlight after a long day in the sun learning about history, where you can just enjoy the view and the nature. Would recommend, especially if you like history.

8 hours excursion with less than 2 hours at the attractions - We have done a lot of viator tours and they are usually very good or excellent. This tour was average in some ways and good in others. Time at the waterfalls and aspendos were sacrificed to spend time at the jewellery shop and then at a Turkish delight shop We were given approximately 40 minutes at aspendos and were rushed about so that we would have 40-50 minutes at the jewellery manufacturers. As a group we requested more time at the attractions and minimal at the jewellery place but we're told this was not possible We then only got 40 minutes at the waterfalls!! We also didn't get to see all the attractions due to time Be warned this is an 8 hour excursion but we got less than 2 hours at the attractions

Waterfall photo is a lie - This picture was not of the waterfall we saw. We booked because of this photo thinking we would see this waterfall...instead they took us to a small man made waterfall only 2 meters tall. Also, the bus broke down and while we understand things can happen they took us and dropped us off at amphitheater site and just had us walk around ourselves without a guide. Why did we pay for a guided service? This wouldn’t have been so bad but the waterfall misleading photo at the end of the trip after a long day was ridiculous. Would not recommend unless you understand the waterfall at the end is a joke and is not anything like what is pictured.
