“Fantastic tour🤩 Great value for money! They picked us up at our hotel in Side. Our guide was amazing, speaking both English and German fluently, and she was in such a good mood, keeping the group entertained with her stories. I think her name was Gina, and the driver was Mosa (not sure about the spelling). We had a wonderful day exploring Antalya’s old town and the waterfall. The guide gave us excellent information about the places we visited and tips on where to find different attractions and things to do. Highly recommended!”

The staff prepared a good lunch of chicken or fish, which we ate on the boat, and then we were given a choice to visit a waterfall in Manavgat or go to the bazaar.
