Great trip to the older side of Turkey - Brilliant trip showing lots of different of the beaten track places. We were the only 2 English speaking guests on the tour however Ali did all he could to ensure we were fully informed of the various different sights. Loved the cave boat trip in particular and also the fantastic scenery.

Educational, informative and eventful - compliment to the guide Ali (Baba) and the safe driver - The tour was superb, thanks above all to the guide Ali (Baba), who has ardently illuminated many interesting and for us also new aspects, of economy, tourism, importance of relations with Germany, state, life, culture, religion and more coupled with life wisdom. All around a great day. So this tour has also led to even more understanding of the country and the people.

Exceptional scenery and fascinating glimpses into Turkish culture - An exceptional trip with stunning scenery the whole way through and some wonderful cultural experiences that we wouldn't have had otherwise. I was blown away by how much of the Taurus Mountains we got to see. The guide was superb, giving lots of information along the way and having a great sense of humour. The food was very nice and plentiful.

Ormana tour - the real Turkey - The trip was great and very informative. The guide Ali is a class in itself - explains the country and people like no other. He's already 74 years old - hard to believe. The food was the best we were ever offered on a trip - very special. Overall a clear Recommendation!

- The view was wonderful:) We were able to take many beautiful photos, the guide was funny and very informative , all activities were done as described on the page. The trip through the cave was fine but unfortunately the one who drove our boat could not tell anything about it as he could not speak German and hardly English. Otherwise we are super satisfied and would recommend the activity to people who want to learn about the country and their culture

Great day trip - Great scenery. - Very well organized excursion. Everything worked out fine. Lunch was even excellent. And the guide "Charlie" did a good job. It's mostly scenic - the tour is worth it just because of the ride. Unfortunately, the seats on the bus are much too tight, so you can hardly sit properly if you are a little taller... and it had some taller people with it. Too bad - because the seating situation is actually a no-go. Today, most people are a little taller. Tourism companies in particular need to know this and take it into account accordingly. Each aircraft even offers more space in economy class. The bus has been cornering far too fast on the home turf, which you simply do not do with a people transporter. Overall, the driving style was very unprofessional. The chauffeur has no idea how to drive with a 'delicate load' - and certainly not with passengers. Any beverage pallet would definitely have fallen over in a truck in this transport style. Braking and 'lying in the curves' are a no-go in the profession. I wouldn't be surprised if a bus like this just flips over - or leaves the road. The chauffeur has absolutely no feeling for the overall weight and the associated displacement forces. Let's hope there are no accidents in the future.
