Great trip!

The trip was very well organised. We had to rearrange the date at short notice and this was not a problem. The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. There was enough time to explore each area and adequate stops were made on the bus (not too many which can make a long day even longer!). I would highly recommend the tour to anyone wanting to see Pamukkale and Hieropolis for a very reasonable price. The sunrise was a great way to see it as it was much cooler and less crowded than later in the day. Definitely worth getting up extra early for! Thank you Ibrahim for a great tour and to the driver for getting us all there and back safely.
