Don't miss this one! - Amazing site with an awesome guide. Not a ton of tourists at the site which made it a peaceful getaway to see both nature and culture. Definitely recommended!

Great experience - Ali and Mustafa provided a special day at this spectacular site!! They were able to allow me to get in when there were difficulties at the gate and then provided a well informed tour of an unusual set of ruins. If you want to see ruins as (almost) originally found, this is it. The mountain top setting provided dramatic views. Thanks to Ali and Mustafa for a great day!!

Exquisite private tour of Ancient Termessos - Superb private tour of Termessos. Very comfortable journey from our apartment to Termessos. Our caring, insightful guide, Mustafa then led us on a fabulous tour of the ancient streets, magnificent theatre (5k capacity) & necropolis of a stunning city perched on an almost impregnable mountaintop that, along with its fierce army, enabled the city to remain independent whilst both the Greek and Roman Empires conquered the surrounding lands. Mustafa was particularly good at explaining how the local history, and the artefacts and buildings we explored, fitted into the wider history of the region and achieved just the right level of insight and “commentary” without ever overloading us. We only came across a dozen or so other tourists during our 2-3 hour visit to Termessos - some of the terrain is a little tricky so sensible footwear is essential! Followed by a visit to Duden Waterfall - also quite interesting albeit rather touristy (and busy) after the seclusion and authenticity of Termessos (due to the waterfall’s proximity and ease of access from Antalya) yet complements Termessos nicely as this is where Alexander The Great’s army went for refreshments after deciding Termessos was too well-protected to engage in battle. Finished off with another smooth journey and drop off at our apartment door.
