Traveler reviews
Tour experience
The guidance and explanation were very easy to understand and I was very happy. It gave me a lot of knowledge about history and culture. I'm glad they also recommended delicious pistachio coffee. We ate lunch in another seat, so we could relax and enjoy it without worrying about it.
I personally recommend it.
It was great to see you visit the major tourist spots and explain them in Japanese! They gave me about 15 minutes of free time to look around at the filming spots. They asked me if I wanted to go to a restaurant where I could eat all-you-can-eat lunch or a restaurant where the set was served. People are nice, and the car is spacious and comfortable, so I recommend it.
Underground city and surroundings
The visit with the wonderful Hatice guide was fantastic, as well as showing us what was planned we stopped at different places of interest. 5 star activity and guide
Great way to see the main sights
This itinerary was fab! We ticked off the main panorama points and Kaymakli underground city in ~5 hours and it felt efficient and relaxed. Our guide Erdi was fantastic! He is very knowledgeable, friendly and answered all our questions, as well as helped us feel that the tour could be made our own.
Worth remembering
From the person who arranged the tour for us, Kerem, to Riza our guide, our driver, Okan, they were very nice and made sure our tour and our stay in Kusadasi will be worth remembering.
