Reviews
Perga and the ancient ruins of Aspendos are incredibly beautiful and well worth a visit. I was really looking forward to the waterfall, but it felt a bit like a tourist park and was a little disappointing. Side is an entire tourist area filled with historical sites. Once inside the park, the grounds are very large, and there are shuttle buses available. The Temple of Apollo is truly beautiful. I visited in August when the temperature was 38 degrees Celsius, so sunscreen, a parasol, and a cooling towel are essential. The air conditioning on the European buses is really weak, so sweating a lot on the bus was a unique experience. Our tour guide was very dedicated, informative, and humorous, making this a highly recommended tour.
It was a great experience. The location is not very far from Antalya city, and the itinerary was well-arranged, just nice and not too draggy. Our tour guide, Salman, was very professional and truly awesome! He gave us clear, structured explanations and shared the background stories of the historical places. You should go for it !!
The tour is good. Our tour guide Cerek is very passionate and helpful. He have a deep knowledge and explained everything to us in details - honnestly I feel lucky that I have booked a tour instead of going to Perge by myself. On the other hand, I have to minus 1 star for the car quality. Something wrong with the air condition, inside car is hot and uncomfortable 🥵. But overall, still can rate 5 star if they can improve the car quality.
I was very satisfied with this tour. Our guide, AZY, provided detailed and professional explanations about the historical background and significance of each site, making the experience much more meaningful. He also shared useful local tips, such as where to find free restrooms and good restaurants. The included lunch was a great opportunity to try a healthy, homemade-style Turkish meal. The itinerary was well organized and allowed us to efficiently visit three major attractions in a single day. I highly recommend this tour!
Today I joined the one-day tour of Antalya, Perge Ancient City, Aspendos Theatre, and Side Ancient City with lunch included. The lunch was amazing—fresh fish from the river was absolutely delicious! Our guide Recep was excellent; his explanations were clear, interesting, and full of historical and mythological details. As a big fan of history and Greek mythology, I was absolutely thrilled! Highly recommend this tour!
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.
The experience was great value for the price! While it's not Greece, it was more than enough for experiencing ancient ruins within Turkey. The weather is incredibly hot even in September, but October was absolutely fantastic 😎. The guide was also very kind and answered all my questions, making it a really enjoyable trip.
[My Review] I chose this tour because it seemed like one of the most popular tours in Antalya. I appreciated that the guide explained each historical site tour in detail and with passion (although I couldn't understand everything due to my English listening skills...). Lunch was also delicious, with a choice of main dish + unlimited sides. If you are interested in history and are looking for a tour in Antalya, I recommend this tour. [Companion's Review] Our tour guide Mr. Aykut was super energetic and positive. Even with the hot weather, he never lost his energy and answered everyone’s questions with real interest. If I ever join another tour in Antalya, I’d definitely go with Aykut again. Thank you!
After placing the order, the tour guide contacted me a day in advance to explain the precautions and meeting location. The itinerary was well-arranged, and our guide, Ozzy, was very handsome and provided a very professional and informative explanation, he could practically be a local culture professor at a university. The lunch provided at noon was plentiful, with four staple food options to choose from and catered to my taste. Overall, it was a perfect experience.
This day trip around Antalya, covering Perge, Aspendos Theatre, and Side, provides an overall satisfying experience. The guide, Recep, arranged the itinerary well and provided lively explanations, making the historical sites more engaging. The transportation was punctual and smooth, with comfortable vehicles, saving the hassle of transferring on our own. Considering that we visited three classic attractions in one day, the price is reasonable and the content is rich. You can experience cultural depth and admire the Mediterranean beauty. The value for money is quite high, making it a highly recommended trip.
