Perge (Perga)

This is a very good tour to do from Antalya taking in Side, Perge, Aspendos and a waterfall. Our guide Mustafa was excellent in that he explained all architectural sites that we visited very well. The only slight disappointment was the quality of the lunch but other than that the tour was amazing and it's something I'd recommend others to do.

What a brilliant trip! Our guide was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and all around wonderful. If you want to see the historical side of Turkey I would 100% recommend taking this excursion. We thought it was superb value for money, absolutely couldn’t fault it.

We had a another long but lovely tour with our guide Genghis, who escorted us thorough all the sights and then given free time to explore the attractions. The tour was conducted with historical explanations as well as a sense of humour.

The tour guide is nice gentlemen who can speak good English and is knowledgeable, able to answer all of our questions. It is just that the time alloted to Side is a bit rushed. Overall it was good.

Lovely tour guide and beautiful historic city. Only one thing was really good is the weather, too hot in Antalya.

There was a big group and hotel pick up was provided! Definitely help that somebody else drove us to this location however the tour was consumed by lots of talking and not as much exploring. For lunch they took us to a fast food joint. We also had to pay extra to enter one of the exhibits. We had to buy our own water bottles at the lunch spot. Some of the excursions took us to places where it was basically a sales pitch the whole time... So let's just say you're paying someone to drive you to these places and meet nice people on the tour bus. I would say it's the kind of thing that's hard to do solo so this is a good option for simply a ride, but too expensive for what was included.

Tour was great. Lots of great history. Perge was amazing because you can see the layout of how the cities looked. Each site was really magical. The waterfall was beautiful and peaceful. Aspendos theater was magnificent and our guide told us about the layout and a story about the man who built it. We got some free time, about 15/20 mins to explore on our own. The aquaducts were grandiose and amazing architecture to see. Side was really cool to see a modern city atop the ancient one. They are excavating more and the have view platforms under your feet. Apollo's temple was looking over the water with athena's just to the right. Great tour if you love ancient history. Our guide was knowledgeable and kind. He answered a lot of my questions before I even had to ask. He also informed us of life today in Turkey which was really helpful. Being able to see so many sites in a day and getting in depth information was also really nice rather than just super basic information. The pickup and drop off were on time and the ride was really nice, comfortable and clean. There is some walking involved, which I loved. I recommend comfortable shoes and water. I highly recommend this tour.

Fantastic trip. Great guide who explained just enough and struck the right balance with allowing free time. So many amazing things to see and great service and value for money.
