“My wife and I read a ton of reviews before booking this, and there were endless 5 star reviews, it was almost hard to find a negative review. I wish there had been more clear feedback so we could have made a more informed decision before booking. I’ll try to highlight the pros and cons so hopefully this will help other people. Pros: Ibrahim was friendly and knowledgeable. He brought the city of Perge to life with the information he shared and the parts that he showed us. This was our favorite part of the tour, and I really wish we had spent more time here and had more free…”

“The only decent thing about this was the sites, the organisation was poor. Picked up at 7:30am drove for 2.5hours collecting others from various hotels. Not allowing any toilet breaks until we asked. Then when arriving at the sites. Only allowing small amounts of time there. It says 1hr min and 2hr min. Side we spent 30-45min .. waterfall 15min and the final stop, 45min. Then after this whole thing, due to the volume of traffic, the driver decided to kick out a majority of the passengers at one stop claiming he couldn’t drop them off at there hotels I would never recommend this to anyone do not be fooled.…”
