The tour to Sapanca Lake and Maşukiye was decent but left much to be desired. While the locations were beautiful and offered some great photo opportunities, the itinerary felt rushed. We spent very little time at each stop, barely enough to truly enjoy the serene surroundings. The guide was knowledgeable but seemed more focused on keeping to a strict schedule rather than accommodating the group's interests. Additionally, the transportation could have been more comfortable; the seats were cramped for a long journey. Lunch was decent but lacked variety. Overall, it was an average experience—good for a quick getaway from Istanbul, but it could use improvements in timing, comfort, and overall coordination.

The Sapanca Lake and Maşukiye tour offered some scenic spots, but it didn’t quite live up to expectations. The bus ride was long, and the stops felt rushed, leaving little time to explore or relax. The guide provided useful information, but the delivery felt somewhat disengaged. The lunch provided was satisfactory, though the options were limited, and vegetarians might struggle to find suitable choices. The highlight was Sapanca Lake, which is stunning, but our visit was too short to enjoy it fully. Maşukiye was charming but overly crowded, taking away from its natural beauty. While the tour offered a nice break from the city, better organization and a more relaxed schedule would make it a more enjoyable experience.

The tour was average, offering a mix of highs and lows. The locations were picturesque, especially Sapanca Lake, but the overall execution left room for improvement. The bus journey was quite long, and the seating was not very comfortable for such distances. Our guide was friendly but didn’t engage much with the group beyond basic explanations. Time management was a significant issue—each stop felt rushed, and we couldn’t fully appreciate the attractions. Lunch was included but lacked quality and variety, feeling more like an afterthought. This tour is suitable for those looking for a quick visit to these destinations, but if you're hoping for a more immersive and relaxed experience, this might not be the best option.

This tour had some enjoyable moments, but overall, it was just okay. The landscapes at Sapanca Lake and Maşukiye were lovely, but we didn’t have enough time to fully appreciate them. The itinerary felt too packed, and the stops were brief and hurried. The bus was clean, but the seats weren’t very comfortable for such a long journey. Lunch was basic, with limited options, and felt more like a necessity than a highlight. The guide was knowledgeable but seemed rushed as well, which didn’t create a very welcoming atmosphere. This tour is suitable for those who don’t mind a quick glimpse of the areas, but it lacked the depth and relaxation I was hoping for.

The Sapanca Lake and Maşukiye tour was fine but far from exceptional. The locations themselves were beautiful, and it was nice to escape the busy city for a day. However, the experience felt more like a checklist of stops rather than a well-thought-out journey. We barely had enough time at each destination to enjoy the scenery or take proper photos. The guide did their job but didn’t go above and beyond to make the experience memorable. Lunch was included but was very standard and didn’t cater well to diverse dietary needs. The bus ride was long and slightly uncomfortable. Overall, it was an average trip—not bad, but not great either. Some improvements in timing and comfort would make it much better.

My experience on this tour was deeply disappointing. A Tunisian tourist asked to access my phone, and I later discovered it was hacked. Thankfully, my phone’s security and backup saved my data. Despite reporting this to the tour operator, they did not take my concerns seriously, likely due to a language barrier.The situation escalated with blackmail attempts involving individuals I didn’t even know. This ruined what should have been a beautiful day surrounded by stunning landscapes.While the natural scenery was lovely, the lack of support from the tour operator in handling such a serious issue left me feeling unsafe and disappointed.

This tour was a complete letdown. While we were picked up on time, the first stop at a shop felt unnecessary and added no value to the trip. The zoo was heartbreaking—depressed animals in tiny enclosures—and the entrance fee of 18 euros per person was far too high for such a poor experience. Lunch was decent, but the toilets were terrible. The cable car (18 euros per person), quad riding (80 euros for three people), and zipline (15 euros per person) were all overpriced, and everything felt like an extra cost. We only reached the lake when it was already dark, making the visit pointless. The so-called "waterfall" was underwhelming, and there was too much waiting around throughout the day. Overall, it was a long, tiring trip (bus ride about 2 hours each way) with little to show for it. I wouldn’t recommend this tour to anyone.

Paying 18 euros per person for this was outrageous. The lunch was average at best, and the toilets at the stop were in terrible condition. On top of that, almost everything required additional payment—cable car (18 euros per person), quad riding (80 euros for three people), and zipline (15 euros per person). By the time we reached Sapanca Lake, it was already dark, making the visit pointless. The so-called "waterfall" was underwhelming and not worth the trip.

Lunch was enjoyable, with fresh and flavorful options. However, there were a few areas for improvement—there was a lot of waiting around at some points, and some stops, like the shop visit, felt unnecessary.Additionally, many activities like the cable car, ATV rides, and zipline required extra payment, which added up quickly. Despite this, it was a fun and relaxing day, and I’d still recommend the tour for those looking to explore nature outside Istanbul.

The day trip was overall a great experience! The views were absolutely stunning, and the guide was amazing—knowledgeable, friendly, and made the trip enjoyable for everyone. However, there were quite a few additional activities that required extra payment. If you choose not to participate, you end up waiting around while others finish, which can feel a bit frustrating. That said, the scenery and overall experience were worth it. If you’re prepared for the extra costs, it’s a fantastic way to enjoy some of the most beautiful landscapes outside Istanbul!

This was hands down the worst tour I’ve ever been on. If you’re looking for nature or an authentic experience, this isn’t it. Despite booking an English tour, only about 20% of the guide’s commentary was in English throughout the day, leaving us feeling completely disconnected. The activities advertised as “optional” were all at an extra cost, and if you chose not to participate, you were left sitting around doing absolutely nothing for an hour while others completed their activities. The zoo was 600TL (1 hour), zip line 500TL (3 tries), ATV safari 1000TL (40 minutes per person), and the cable car was 600TL per person (for just 15 minutes at the top!). The timings for these activities made no sense—why pay for the cable car when you barely have time to enjoy the view? One of the most disappointing parts was the so-called "learning about Turkish delights." It was more of a 45-minute hard-sell session where they pressured you to buy overpriced sweets. It felt like the entire tour was structured to maximize commissions for the operators by taking us to tourist trap locations and encouraging unnecessary purchases. The experience was exhausting and frustrating, and I couldn’t wait for it to end. I wouldn’t recommend this tour to anyone.

The day trip offered beautiful views and a refreshing escape from the city. Sapanca Lake and Maşukiye’s natural beauty were stunning, and the guide was friendly and knowledgeable, making the experience enjoyable. However, there were several additional costs for activities like the cable car, ATV rides, and zipline. While these were fun, they added up quickly. If you choose not to participate in the activities, you might find yourself waiting around with little else to do, which can be frustrating. The zoo and some stops felt like tourist traps, but the lunch was decent, and the overall organization was smooth. Despite the extras, it’s still a worthwhile trip for the scenic beauty and fun activities. Just be prepared for additional expenses!

This tour did not meet expectations. While the scenery at Sapanca Lake and Maşukiye was nice, the overall experience was poorly planned and filled with unnecessary stops. The first stop was at a shop, which felt like a tourist trap. The zoo was depressing, with small enclosures and overpriced tickets (600TL per person). Most of the activities, such as the ATV ride, zipline, and cable car, required additional payment, and if you chose not to participate, you were left waiting around with nothing to do. The timing for activities was also poorly managed—for example, paying 600TL for the cable car only to have 15 minutes at the top felt pointless. Lunch was average at best, and there was a lot of wasted time throughout the day. Overall, this tour felt more like a money-making scheme than an enjoyable experience. I wouldn’t recommend it unless major improvements are made.

The tour was overall a great experience with beautiful scenery and a well-organized itinerary. Sapanca Lake was peaceful, and the lush greenery in Maşukiye was stunning, offering a refreshing escape from the city. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and ensured everyone was comfortable throughout the day. The activities, like the ATV ride and zipline, were fun but came with additional costs, which can quickly add up. If you decide not to participate, there’s a bit of waiting around with not much else to do. Lunch was decent, but the stops at the zoo and some shops felt like tourist traps and weren’t particularly enjoyable. Despite these minor issues, the natural beauty and overall experience made it worthwhile. I’d recommend this tour, but be prepared for extra expenses.

The tour felt repetitive, with too many stops at similar places offering the same type of attractions. This led to a lot of wasted time that could have been better spent enjoying key highlights. The guide didn’t add much value, as they mainly focused on giving us the schedule without providing any interesting insights or context.Overall, the tour lacked variety and organization, leaving much room for improvement.
