Godd experience - Great day out with 2 adults and a 4 year old. The walk around side in the heat (34 degrees c) was amazing but was pushing it with the heat for a little one but the rest of the day was very suitable. Our tour guide was great and interacted with us and our child very well. The lunch was delicious aswell. Would have preferred a little longer at the sites instead of going to the jewelry shop however I'm sure that would appeal to some. The Turkish delight factory shop was nice though. The driver was friendly and a safe driver and the lunch provided was tasty and fresh would recommend 👍

Beautiful but crowded - Very nice place but unfortunately too crowded in the evenings. Nice live music but unfortunately in every restaurant, almost like at a fair.

Tourism kills the touristic places - It was shame, half of the remainings was replicas. The restourants and shops ruins the antique city. Anyway... Even in this conditions, it was enough to see how poeple think in that age. location, style, art...

Pleasant and beautiful - Nice. City a lot of renovation and preservation of history. Many old finds are kept there and are still being rebuilt

Crossed off the major sites in one day, though with little historical commentary - This tour took us to the biggest sites in the Antalya area, including the Ancient City of Side, Aspendos Theatre, and Kurşunlu Waterfall (Manavgat Waterfall is apparently running dry due to the climate), all in one day. The only thing lacking was proper historical context on these sites. There was some shallow commentary on areas, but most of our time was spent travelling and in free time around the site. There was no guided tour at each location. That's not necessarily a bad thing, some people might want to take pictures in their own time, but I was hoping for more education on the significance of the sites and the history behind them. The tour guide was friendly and made conversation with us as we went and he made sure to cater for all the pick-up/drop-off locations of the attendees. The lunch food was simple but an interesting taste of a local restaurant near the Aspendos Theatre. Also, we were taken on some unexpected diversions that weren't listed on the itinerary. We went to a jewellery store and a Turkish delight store. This was incredibly unexpected and as someone who doesn't buy jewellery or enjoy Turkish delight, it felt a little bit like we'd been tricked into buying things while on the tour. It seemed others were interested though, so this may just be a matter of putting it on the itinerary such that it's not a surprise. Overall, I'm glad I took this tour and would recommend it to others, I just wish the description was more clear on exactly what is on the itinerary and how little historical guidance there is on the tour.

Cozy - For my son (6), the bus ride was a bit boring at times, but otherwise the tour was great with lovely stops. We particularly enjoyed the time in the old town of Side. I can recommend the tour to anyone who enjoys taking tours by bus.

Avoid! - Do not book with this operator even after booking and giving our resort details they did not collect us instead expected me to pay 50 euros to meet them at a pick up location which was never mentioned during the booking process. My booking clearly stated collection from our resort even though it was not on the list it was accepted when we booked! Really bad customer service avoid this tour operator!

Awful waste of money - The tour guide was terrible like he didn't want to be there, information given was poor I personally would liked to learn more than he explained, Not long at each destination like was a race to get round, Plus side where we stopped for lunch to hoste, and the food were amazing now they definitely deserved the generous tip I gave Overall really disappointed

never believe - we never bother going on street excursions. Travel agency tours are always professional and guaranteed. because street tours are never guaranteed. cheap tours are always bad. we had a problem. they are constantly changing everything they have mentioned in other outdoor tours. No, I don't recommend
