• MJFair1975 0 contributions 3.0 of 5 bubbles Good in parts but rubbish in lots We booked this through Jet 2 and it was average at best. We had a fun ride on jeep up the mountain. Stopped off a picturesque part of the coastline where “Mr Photo” took far too many pictures, we refused in the end as we felt like we were the Kardashian’s being photographed. Next stop was the Zip line - Nice place for a snack and drink but zip line waste of time and very small. Had to wait until everyone did it before the trip moved on (slightly suspect H&S rules in place - eg. under 130 cm children allowed on despite rules stating otherwise. Then onto Turtle Bay - what a joke. It’s a Green murky pond. Guide goes into the water and takes turtle out (small) for Yes, more photos. We moved on to the Wishing tree - this is nothing special; it’s a tree with ribbon wrapped on it, no explanation of what the tree is for and why it’s given the title of a ‘Wishing Tree’ Then we had lunch, which was nice BUT you had to go through the 35 minutes sales pitch from carpet man. Opens up with “thank you for coming and supporting our community, we will let the Government know so they don’t demolish our village” then wraps up by saying that 80% of carpets are sold wholesale and Government pays all the shipping costs. After lunch we moved onto our final stop, the Mud Bath. This was fun but some had to endure a 15 minute tour of an olive oil factory and this is the point Mr Photo tries to sell you the thousands of pictures, which is doesn’t like if you don’t buy them. Our driver was amazing and TBH he took the best photos of us, they don’t need Mr Photo. Read more Written October 30, 2023

• 741andrejs 0 contributions 2.0 of 5 bubbles A Jet tour….. When we booked this tour we saw a lot of positives feedback, which in retrospect after witnessing the whole tour is not really understandable! First of all the tour itself: it is not anything like the pictures, to sum it up it is a 7 hour ride through bumpy roads. We drove into a mountain area where we visited multiple villages, essentially all of the stops on this tour were to advertise really expensive goods. The road itself had some beautiful views but only a few. The first stop was to take pictures, here we were pushed to buy the more expensive tour with a bout trip on top, we did not want that so we stayed on our tour. There was a photographer taking pictures but only for the people of the “superior” tour. The people from this tour we treated like kings, the next stop was a turtle lake, where the photographer took a turtle out of the lake and presented it to the “superior” people who could take pictures with it. I asked if i could look at the turtle but was rudely ignored. Upon further enquiring he showed me the turtle for a couple of seconds and rudely told me that he has now time for me and went away. After that the next stop was a “wish-making” tree which in itself is extremely interesting. Though there was no explanation as to why this particular tree was a “wish-making” tree and no background information. Essentially there was no talking at all the guides did not explain anything! The next stop was a cafe with a zip line which costs 5 Euros extra, if you watched the zip lining episode in south park, that would be an accurate description of this event. Therefore, we obviously did not attend it. Also they sold water guns, yes the ones in the picture cost money 5 euros to just borrow it. Also all of the goods sold at the cafe like water, cola, etc. were extremely expensive. The next big stop was a village where carpets are produced(hand made), we actually saw a women knotting. But that again was just a big advertisement to sell the carpets, although they were extremely beautiful. The lunch was also there, water and soft drinks were not for free but the food was good. The next and last stop was olive oil fabric or so it was called because basically it was just a cafe again with expensive olive oil and expensive goods like ice cream. Although at this stop it was possible to take a mud bath which was not really popular, i myself tried it and laid in this mud lake. It was said to be extremely healthy although i am not sure if this is true it did feel quite relaxing, also to be noted is that, i was a little ill on this day and i did feel better after the bath; maybe it really is healthy 😂. Because the jeeps have no roof and it was extremely hot, buying water was necessary. I can understand that soft drinks are not for free but having no free water is beyond unreasonable. Especially because we had at least 15 Liter of water in each car for the water fights with paid guns. In my opinion although fun, an extremely unreasonable way of using water. Yes because there were so many guests there were many cars having water fights between the cars. Which was a little fun although rather childish. As for the bus drivers because the organisation was rather poor they changed a lot and we had to change cars quite a few times. The two bus drivers with the cowboy hats were extremely nice to us and especially to the children. Now my biggest issue with this tour lies in the beginning and it is a safety related issue! Because most of the places we had to visit were located in a mountain area we took an ascending route alongside the mountains. Most of the routes were pretty bad throughout all of the journey and it was quite uncomfortable at times. But this particular route was something else entirely, calling it a route would be an overstatement! It was more like a really thin path with a lot if rocks small and big ones now pairing this with the fact that the buses we clearly not meant to be used for “off-road action”, this was just unimaginably dangerous. To the left side of this path lays the the cliff and further left nothing. When ascending it became more and more clear that if the bus were to fall off the cliff we would all die it did not help that some seats had no seatbelts and the bus did not have windows or a roof. Between the cliff and the bus were mere centimetres. And no insurance to keep the bus on track sometimes the road got so bumpy that i was sure that was it. How this is not illegal is beyond me. Me and my friends were feeling extremely uncomfortable throughout this hole ascension. And it is important to declare that we are first of all rather young and really love adrenaline related events like roller coasters and other activities similar to that. But this was just dangerous and had now fun part in it. All in all it was extremely disappointing a really shallow experience with a lot of advertisements and some really dangerous parts. Definitely not recommendable! Read more Written September 23, 2023

I have been to Ephesus before but learned some facts from her that I hadn't discovered previously. All in all she was a first class guide and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to anyone.

lt is a one-day eventful excursion, during which we did not have a single minute to get bored. We left the hotel very early, at 6 am. After a couple of hours of travel we stopped for breakfast, for which we paid separately. The views even at the entrance to Pamukkale are simply mesmerizing. We visited not only Pamukkale, but also the ancient city of Hierapolis, whose amphitheater simply amazes the imagination with its size and degree of preservation. So many stories, revised pictures – only a tenth of the miracle that we saw with our own eyes! White slope, hot sun and warm water – I would sit there for days. Thank you for helping to make our trip unforgettable.

A day full of wonderful sites, do book this tour and you wont regret it! Went there a week ago with some friends, and we can’t forget the images we got! The best part for us was the thermal springs. We had swimsuits with us, so we did miss the chance to experience this. The water in cleopatra’s pool was so warm and nice. The travertines were impressive, the perfect spot to snap photos!! Lunch was tasty, and the whole tour was perfectly executed by the company. 5 stars for the organization, a trustworthy company to book your tours!

Florın Oprıa

What an amazing day! I will always have Pamukkale in my heart! Went on this a couple of days ago, and I still feel stunned by the power and beauty of nature! One of the things I wanted to see was, of course, the white mountain. I mean, WOW! It was better than the pictures! There was a guide with us and gave us many infos on the sites. The ancient city was also amazing. I had no idea about the history of the area, so visiting the site was a good thing. Pamukkale has such an amazing atmosphere. I felt relaxed and excited at the same time! An excellent tour!
