Miscommunication
Do not use this company they will take your money and provide nothing. Company is Payless Turizm Tour was supposed to start at 2am. Everything had been done by email A change was made but I was informed by WhatsApp and the pickup became 1am WiFi here is intermittent but I made sure I checked emails for any changes. I didn't check WhatsApp because it's not something I use so obviously I missed it. The company won't accept any responsibility and refuse to offer alternative date or refund. I would have happily taken a different date but they won't engage. Not answering the phone or WhatsApp massages with anything other than a flat no. This could still be resolved if it is I'll amend this review
Great Experience
Great Experience, Sonny was a great tour guide with knowledge and enthusiasm
Brethe taking!!
It's absolutely worth the 0200 pick!!!! Sonny was supper friendly very knowledgeable, the balloons flew which made it even more fantastic, down side is 3 hours is not enough to do the full pools and ancient city but still fascinating
Once in a lifetime experience.
This tour is excellent. The hot air balloon ride was just breath taking and enjoyable. Actually flew up almost 1.7km high to catch the sunset. Our guide Sonny and driver Harun were very kind and caring with great knowledge when showing us around Pamukkale. The additional stops to the onyx, wine and turkish delight factories were also great and we did not feel pressured at all to buy anything. Overall money well spent, worth every penny.
Excellent day!
Was excellent. Had a wonderful time. Was a long day but well worth it!! The hot air balloon was amazing. All the activities was superb!
