Antalya in one day: Kaleiçi Old Town, Hadrian’s Gate, Lower Düden, optional Olympos cable car, harbor boat ride, and lunch.
“I had the most amazing day - thank you to our tour guide Inui. She was so knowledgeable and answered every question asked. She kept us informed of our timing throughout the day and made sure we were all comfortable. I was picked up and dropped off at my hotel in Kemer with no issue. The food at lunch was delicious - I had the vegetarian option: tomato and cheese on flatbread (a fresh version of pizza). Other options included chicken and beef kebabs, and drinks and baklava for purchase. This tour suited everyone - myself travelling solo, young families and older people (all of which on my tour). Inui…”

“Fedai is a great driver; and Darye is a superb guide: providing clear, succinct historical background about Perge and Asplendos, with just the right amount of detail and humor. We only wished we had more free time to explore Perge.”
Perge, Aspendos, Side and Manavgat Waterfall in one full-day Antalya tour with lunch, tickets, and English guidance for small groups.
“Homer, our guide, and Mehmet, our driver, were exquisite. Homer is deeply knowledgeable, intense, and utterly engaging, a person clearly built for this work. Mehmet is a skilled driver with the kindest disposition imaginable. This trip is worth every penny. For any Western-educated person, this tour is essential. A Western education trains us to believe that civilization begins with the Greeks and Romans, with only a reluctant acknowledgment of Egypt. This experience corrects that mythology. Anatolia, and what is now Turkey, preceded them all. It restores historical order and reminds us how profoundly incomplete the Western civilizational narrative has been.”

“One of the nicest tours I have been on. Lovely guide lady (sorry dont know correct spelling of her name)- she was a wonderful guide, giving us all the right amount of information and giving adequate time to roam around. She was very interactive, made sure everyone was taken care of. Would recommend tour to history buffs in antalya.”

“This is a great day trip, the guide Mehmet was very knowledgeable and gave great insights into life in Turkey as well as the sites. Perge is amazing, especially the stadium and Aspendos theatre has to be seen. Lunch is included and was better than I’d expected-there is a vegetarian option too. I would highly recommend”
