We were picked up on time and traveled in a comfortable, air-conditioned coach. Our guide was excellent—warm, approachable, and very well-informed. We’d definitely recommend this tour, as it gave us valuable insights into Turkish culture and history. Some parts of the tour involve walking on uneven ground, so it's a good idea to wear proper shoes—as we did—and had no issues at all.

"Nur was a fantastic guide—very knowledgeable, cheerful, and easy to talk to. The day was well-organized, moved at a comfortable pace, and kept us engaged throughout. I went with my wife and our 11-year-old daughter, and we all had a great time. The waterfall was calm and relaxing, and there was time to walk further along the stream and take in the surroundings. The ancient plane tree was fascinating, but what really stood out was the charming little town square nearby—it was a perfect way to wrap up the day. There were also plenty of chances to stop for drinks and ice cream, which was much appreciated on a warm day like this.

This was a fantastic tour that offered a genuine glimpse into the rural way of life of the local community. The landscapes and natural surroundings were stunning, completely different from what you find in central Marmaris. Our guide, Sahin, was wonderful—friendly, knowledgeable, and warm-hearted. We reserved our spot online the same day we arrived and paid on the day of the tour. Staying in touch through WhatsApp was easy, and booking directly like this was much more affordable than using third-party services!
