Fascinating trip. - Very enjoyable trip with Turgay. Do bear in mind that you will need a reasonable level of fitness to climb to the castle although Turgay will be happy to stop as often as you want to.

Amazing tour! - Amazing tour and great tour leaders. We booked this tour in august and we found out it was going to be 41 degrees so we asked to moved the order of visits around so we could go to the castle first. Inja the tour guide was so helpful and happy to oblige. She was knowledgable about the places we visited and interesting to talk to. We had such a fun day and we would highly recommend this tour!
