Waterfalls less impressive
Do not choose the tour if you expect impressive waterfalls. We were driven to a jewelry point, although it did not appear as part of the tour. Lunch was nice and the guide spoke perfectly English.

Hard Sell
The view of the waterfalls is wonderful but only do this trip if you are up to the constant upselling along the way. From the jewellery showroom, through lunch and on the boat trip there is constant pressure to purchase.

Brilliant Excursion. Very reasonably priced.
Excellent excursion. Really worth the money. Lovely tour of historical Antalya. Lovely boat ride, entrance to the Amazing Duden waterfalls, stop over to see other waterfalls. Shopping break and to top it off a really delicious lunch was included. Highly recommend!
