Things to do in Antalya Province

Very nice day. They picked us up at the hotel, first beach was good, stop in Salada, lots of boats, very crowded. Everything went very well. The driver was a bit on edge and drove like a maniac. Bring your own drinks because at the rest stop, a juice box and a Sprite cost $14.

Weather was good, itinerary was good, the sights was photogenic, must try pomegranate beer....yummy. The tour is worth it but i wish was another lady guide that was with another group as we were doing the same sights and our guide and her were associate but she will walk with the group and explain in more details ways. Our guide was stiff, at the end of sightseeing spot, an old man was lost then the guide explain his side of the story but we didn't hear the old man side so no matter who wrong or right, i still think that as a group we should start and end together.

Both the driver and the tour guide were excellent and very professional in their explanations. They also made sure we understood everything. Since the drive was long, they took us to a rest stop in the morning so we could use the restroom and grab some breakfast. On the way back, they also took us to a rest stop. Upon arriving at Pamukkale, they first gave us an explanation, and then we had free time to explore. I can only say that Pamukkale is vast, with many ancient ruins, so it's impossible to see everything. You can only choose the areas that interest you. Lunch was a buffet, where you could pick your favorite items, but drinks were an additional charge.

Fatima is a great and experienced guide. She has a way to illustrate history in a lively, attractive manner. She would make use of modern examples as well to help you better understand the concepts. I am not a history person but I am drawn to her storytelling. Time management wise, she arranged the itinerary so that we could avoid traffic and finish our tour on time. Time allocated to each site is reasonable. An intro of the history, some info on the technology used, followed by individual exploration and photo-taking time. One slight suggestion is that more time can be allocated to Aspendos Theatre. We spent like 55mins at Side, which is nice. It allowed you to have time to sit down and enjoy a glass of pomegranate beer. But we only had 20mins at Aspendos. Would be perfect if have a little bit more time to explore there.

We were picked up near the hotel at 5:10 AM, and after a break, we had time to enjoy Hierapolis-Pamukkale from around 10:30 AM to 2:00 PM. Those who plan to do activities might find this time short, but for us, about two and a half hours was sufficient. Lunch is quite late, starting around 2:30 PM (though it's a very delicious buffet), so we recommend bringing some snacks. There is one bus transfer each way, but the journey was comfortable, and we're very glad we were able to visit Pamukkale at this time.

All of the spots visited have crystal clear water! (also since it was the end of April, the boat was not overcrowded) The guide was very good at entertaining throughout the trip!

The Olympos cable car experience was super cool! We were very lucky to visit on a day with clear skies. Our guide, Ertan, said there are only a few days a year with such good visibility, and the scenery was truly beautiful. Along the way, the guide shared many interesting historical stories. The entire trip was well-paced. The only slight downside was that because the itinerary was so packed, we didn't have time to take a boat to the base of Düden Waterfalls; we could only view them from above. The boat tour went to another smaller waterfall instead. However, having a guide to explain the history of each area was still very valuable, and I highly recommend this tour for travelers with limited time who want to explore Antalya city.

We had a great time - pickup was smooth, we had enough time to explore the sites ourselves and the tour guide is very informative and entertaining. 10/10. Highlight of our trip, thank you.

It's very convenient; you can enter the attraction immediately without waiting in line, saving time and hassle. You receive your e-ticket right after booking, and there's even a mobile audio guide that you can continue listening to at home within the validity period. The complimentary sightseeing boat tour is also fantastic; you get to see many classic buildings along the river. I chose the 5 PM slot, which was perfect for watching the sunset—absolutely beautiful! ❤️
