Traveller reviews
Day felt like a rushed money grab. The breakfast stop- Poorly organised. Us and other full coaches all have to stand in a huge queue for about 20 mins to get served at a roadside truck stop (Not what's advertised) . you then have to shove it down because you only have 10 mins left. I needed to use the loo after which meant I was 5 mins late for getting back on, and I got hit with a range of abuse from the guide and the bus driver and even was threatened that they would leave me to get a taxi next time. I wouldn't have been late if there was actually time to both eat and go to the toilet. So our day started off badly. They even had a go at my partner for me not being there. Incredibly rude. I was ready to apologise when rushing back, but after the way I was spoken to, I was just fuming. Mud Bath- We were taken to one that's not advertised on here. Was basically a muddy lukewarm paddling pool with dead bugs floating on top (Its outdoors so understandable, but still). you then have to panic rush to try and get off all the mud because everyone's now too nervous to be late. So you don't actually get to relax. Lunch- Was in a bare looking canteen not restaurant. Food itself was nothing special, I would have preferred to have brought a sandwich. Wasn't an open buffet lunch as advertised. We got a strange tasting soup (I think it was tomato? We couldnt work it out) and then we chose the spaghetti. Turtle Beach- Was the only highlight. Beach itself is nice. A couple of turtles swim around the dock because that's where tourists feed them but im not sure it was worth a full day's travel. Our guide was frankly, terrible. There were two of them, a Russian lady and the Turkish man. The Russian lady seemed brilliant for Russian speakers as she would go into so much detail for her guests in Russian. Our guide the Turkish man for us English speakers, couldn't be bothered. On one occasion when we were on the boats by the tombs, our boat with English speakers heard the Russian Lady talk in detail about interesting things like Indiana Jones movies being filmed there. Our guide mentioned none of that. One of the men even called him out on it and how rubbish he was. Would I suggest, not sure. If we had a different guide and just went straight to the beautiful boat tour to Turtle beach, I would have enjoyed it. Everything before just felt rushed.
Great Trip, good day and great food!! We booked with Sami lovely guy really nice great price too! Thank you!
Had a great day out with this company. Excellent service and great prices. Highly recommend using them. They go the extra mile!
Great day out with friends. Trip was well organised and transport was clean and safe. The tombs in the hillside were amazing to see from the riverboat and we enjoyed our time at Iztuzu beach which is really pretty to walk along. On the way back we were so lucky to see a turtle pop up for a crab from a fisherman. Best part of the day was the mud baths, good idea to wear dark swimwear. They promise you'll look 10 years younger, waiting for it to kick in!
Fantastic service , well organised day, it’s been something we have wanted to do for a long time, this company has gone above and beyond for us as a family - thank you again!
