Traveller reviews
Good: The photos for these attractions look great and fell short in real life. Boat ride was very nice, Russian lady was super fantastic and actually spoke pretty good English. She was the highlight of the tour! Bus was very dark and cramped. They were about an hour late picking us up because other people didn’t show up (?). We overheard them mention that if they did show up we wouldn’t have had enough seats on the bus anyway. Little boy kept throwing up on the bus and we only stopped twice in about 3 to 4 hours in each direction. I couldn’t notice any air moving or AC. I kept tripping on the rug in the bus. We were “English speaking” so they brought on an insufferable “English speaking” tour guide who struggled to get his thoughts out despite us NOT caring about the tour. Could barely answer questions, tried to herd us like cats and lecture us before we go off and see the sights, and asked if we spoke French because couldn’t communicate in English well. I don’t know why we paid SO much to have some old man practice his English with us. He thought his tour was more important than our time there, and at one point told us not to go to the bathroom for 45 minutes because he wanted to show us the tour. Ugh. Costs are not included. We didn’t really understand how expensive this would be. €10 for the boat, €18 or something for the church, $14.25 on my card for Mira. No juice or water at lunch so we bought soft drinks. This is also a tour of gift shops. Another identical onyx gift shop that’s very overpriced, a church idol themed gift shop, bathroom breaks and breakfasts all had them. Thank you next
Attractions were nice and boat trip was good. The tour guide was not great. Little information was provided in English and even that was hard to understand. The lunch included in price not worth the money, the place was not really clean either and personally would recommend to pack your own food and snack for the day.
The attractions were nice. The boat trip interesting and nice too. But the guide was not strong in organization and description of the attractions. She was Russian and able to speak a little English. The amount of information we got in English was too small in comparison to the amount of info she gave to all the Russian tourists.
Excellent experience, totally recommend it. Suitable for all ages and abilities. The steps to the tombs are not wheelchair accesible though.
Great trip, really enjoyed it. Lunch was ample and tasty. Would have been better if it said in the description we had to bring swim suits. It was a great opportunity to swim.
The pick up & rides back & forth were too long. But the places we visited are totally worth it! Amazing tombs & theater, spectacular underwater city, swimming in pristine turquoise waters was memorable. I ' d recommend it if you are in Kemer, a bit less if you are in Alanya & by far not if you are coming from Alanya or Side, as you' ll spend most of the day on a bus.
