Totally worth it - 1) Schedule. We've left Alanya at 8:15 and made our first stop in Side at 10:30. The bus picked up other travelers all way to destination, which usual for tours like that. We've spent in Side for 2 hours and then visited Manavgat Waterfall, cafe for lunch and Aspendos theatre - each for 30 minutes. The last one point we've left at 15:40 and arrived to Alanya at 17:45. 2) Additional stops. We had no one! And it's the huge advantage of the tour! We've visited just places from the itinerary. There was no one additional points like another one cafe or tourist market. That's great! 3) Locations. All places are spectacular, but the Manavgat Waterfall a little bit overcrowded. You should be ready to stay in queue for take photos. 4) Lunch. Food was average, nothing special. Place for lunch was very modest but with good service. 5) Organizers. The tour has organized very well. A driver cared a lot about passengers' comfort and our trip's safety. Guide also is very pleasant. If sum up, I could say that I totally recommend this tour. It was interesting and it costs its money.

It's booked with a Polish company... - <p>It's booked with a Polish company, with a Polish guide. They did bring an english talking guide for my friend and I, but it was hard to understand him most of the time, and we could hear that the Polish people got so much more info. But the trip was good, very beautiful and the lunch was alright too. You get to see a lot for the money.</p>

Waste of time and money - Scam. Bought trip via TripAdvisor then operator contacted me and refused to pickup from hotel , accused me to have attitude and refused to refund!!! Wasted 105£ and no one tried to help or find solution. I will never use a TripAdvisor again.

This was the worst tour... - This was the worst tour trip I have ever experienced. The guide tried to make us make our own way back to the bus after dumping in side. Horrendous very unprofessional. I want a refund

Rip off - please do not book with these people , they will take your money and after you arrive in Turkey they tell you they do not pick up from you hotel (this is after you have put this information in the booking form ) .Then when you ask for your money back they tell you they don't give refunds .
