Activities in Turkey

The hot air balloon guide was fantastic! High energy throughout the ride, and even though it was my first time and i was slightly nervous, his excitement and confidence helped ease the nerves. 10/10 would recommend and go again! superb experience for a good price in June!! The flight was 1hr plus and it was worth it definitely. Thank you skyway for the wonderful experience. I would recommend this provider for your hot air balloon ride. Just do it.

I boarded at 7 PM on Saturday, June 6th, and it was still bright. By around 8:40 PM, the sunset was beautiful. It was lovely to see each landmark from the sea. It was incredibly windy and cold, so a jacket is essential. Two hours felt a bit long; one hour would have been perfect. However, there are indoor seats, so you can relax inside and still enjoy the view outside!

jacob is very good and professional tour guide, sharing all the historical background and context to us at every attractions interestingly. highly worth it to join this tour to have a deep understanding of cappadocia. coach is comfortable. buffet lunch is great with many options.

I had a really satisfying experience overall. Our guide, Eda, was very kind and gave us helpful explanations throughout the tour. The tour was well-organized and offered great value for money. We visited Göreme Panorama, Derinkuyu Underground City, Selime Monastery, Ihlara Valley, and Pigeon Valley. At each stop, Eda gave us a brief explanation and then allowed us enough free time to look around at our own pace. We had lunch before moving to Ihlara Valley, and there were various main dish options, including fish, meatballs, chicken, beef, mushroom, and vegetarian choices. The Ihlara Valley hike was a bit hot even in June, but we were able to rest in the shade and enjoy it comfortably. The hotel pickup was right on time at 9:30 a.m., and we returned to the hotel around 4:30 p.m. There were only five people in the tour group including me, so the schedule went smoothly without any delays. Overall, it was a well-paced, efficient, and enjoyable tour. I would definitely recommend it!

I'm so glad I took the Bosphorus Sunset Cruise. All I had to do was select the date and time, purchase the ticket, and then head to the meeting point. There wasn't any staff or reception on land; I went straight to the boat. After checking in on board, I was shown to a seat on the second deck, and a large quantity of soft drinks was provided. After water and chai, lemonade, and then more chai or coffee, an endless supply of soft drinks kept coming. There's also a restroom on the boat, so you can drink as much as you like without worry. However, since I was on the same boat as the dinner cruise guests, I found myself wishing I could try the delicious-looking food my neighbors were eating. You can, however, purchase alcoholic beverages like beer for an additional charge, though they are quite expensive. After circling the Golden Horn and going as far as the Maiden's Tower in the Bosphorus Strait, we watched the sunset and returned to port, admiring the illuminated Istanbul. Taking this tour on my first day of the trip was great because it helped me get a feel for the city and its layout. I highly recommend this tour.
