Loved this tour! - We really enjoyed this tour! Drive was beautiful. Boat trip was amazing with such beauty and Myra ancient city very beautiful. We did not go in St Nicholas church. Lunch and guide were great as well!

Good experians - This was a good experians for the whole family. Eat your breakfest at the hotel, its probably better and not overprised as you get it on the first stop. Bring a lot of water, and cash is king on this trip for overprised turistprices. There are some unnecessary stops on the way, that makes the trip longer. On the way you see many interesting things and you get a great guide with a lot of knowledge. You might meet a new friend as well, you at least get good time to talk on the bus.

Worth a ride! - I was on this field trip and it's an experience, in one day for life. Natalia's tour guide was a bomb! Very beautiful, energetic, entrepreneurial and organized every step perfectly. Everything was thought through. From toilet stops to drives to various hotels in nearby settlements. All the people we dealt with were very friendly and all could speak Russian very well. I liked the couple on the boat. Her coffee and shrimp were delicious. I liked the sultanite shop. I chose something, although it wasn't cheap, but as a memory, I bought gifts for my loved ones. The brand store with icons had simply exclusive icons of superior quality, but the prices were very high, as for works of art, rather. Overall, I'm happy I went. I'd like to take another tour with this firm next time.

Things to do during your stay in Antalya - Interesting excursion combining boat tour and visit of archaeological sites. Guide had good knowledge and minibus was comfortable

Interesting cultural outing - Interesting cultural outing. Excursion organized by Firmus tour, in French. We found it a little expensive, but it must be due to the 2h/journey.

Long day but worth it if you like historical ruins and boating/swimming in turquoise blue waters - The boat trip to the sunken city was lovely, although they were going too fast past the ruins. If they had spent less time changing buses, too many pickups, an unnecessary visit to an onyx factory (not advertised), we could have had more time on the boat. The swim was absolutely delightful as was lunch. The entry to St Nicholas church is too expensive and not worth it. We didn’t do it, but the ones that did it weren’t impressed. Finally the Myra tombs and the amphitheater ruins was fabulous. It was so uncrowned unlike ruins in Rome. On the whole a very enjoyable day even if it was a long one.

Many bus hours - The tour is fine but if you are picked up in Antalya be clear that it is about 4h one way by bus and another 3h back. That is, hiking is 3h. I would not recommend doing it from this far away but if you are close to the Demre area. Finally, add that the water sarcophagus does not look like in the photos but from a long way away.

A good day but with unexpected twists and turns - It was wonderful to meet new people and see Myra, Kekova, and St Nicholas’ church. However, we weren’t given enough time at each place (25 mins). Instead, before we arrived at our first destination (after 3hrs of travelling from Antalya due to picking up guests), we were taken to a ‘rock shop’. This was unexpected and not in the itinerary. By cutting this part out of the day, time could have been reallocated to each location rather than using it on an unexpected shopping trip. It was quite disappointing to find ourselves in a situation where the guide/tour company wanted to make money from us and sold us short by abbreviating the day. Entrance to St Nicholas’ church is €17 (and they *do* accept cards). I paid at the booth, and we were given 25 mins in the church. The guide insisted on taking us around the church. Most of us would have preferred to enjoy it without the guide impatiently leading us around at break-neck speed. Sadly, also, not all the group could understand what was being said in English. Having said this, we covered a fair bit of ground during our trip, but the highlights of the trip were marginalised due to the ‘rock shop.’ This didn’t start the day well or with an appropriate tone, I felt. After that, it was hard not to think that all they wanted to do was make money from us. (Prices were listed in Euros, not Turkish Lira.) The guide was kind and knowledgeable, but he seemed a little frustrated with us. (Maybe we were frustrating!) All in all, it was a good day, but with unexpected twists and turns that left a bit of a sour taste.

Only 20 minutes in Myra - The boat trip to Kekova was nice. However, we spent almost 2 hours at a tourist trap gem shop that was not in the itinerary and conversely were only allowed about 20 minutes in each of the major sites the tour was supposed to focus on. The guide was uninterested, bored, and even rude about hurrying us through sites.

Lots of bus rides with a bit of sightseeing - In itself, the sightseeing part of the tour is ok. The sunken city is quite nice but also not breathtaking, the bathing from the boat was great, the lunch delicious and Myra was very nice. The guide tried hard and told a lot. But sitting squeezed into a full coach for over 8 hours is really not worth it. From Antalya it took us over 4 hours to Demre, including 2 long stops at Touri stores to sell us stuff. The boat trip was then just over an hour and then back to the bus. In total, the tour took us 14 hours, of which over half were on the bus. The tour is ok but again we would not do it. It's worth a day at the beach more.
