The Green Canyon is one of the most beautiful places I visited in Turkey. The water is an unreal emerald colour, and there is silence and mountains all around. The boat ride was pure relaxation and a complete escape from everything.

Rafting in Belek is pure adrenaline! At first I was a little scared, but the instructor explained everything and I felt calm. Rafting down the mountain river was great, especially when the boat went through the rapids. Highly recommended for active travelers.

Jeep safari and rafting is a perfect combination! First a jeep ride through the mountains, then rafting on the river. So many emotions, especially the stops with views of Köprülü Canyon.

Pamukkale is a place you must see. The white terraces look like snow, and swimming in Cleopatra’s Pool is a special pleasure of its own. A very full and beautiful day.

The Sapadere tour exceeded my expectations! The canyon is stunning, the water is icy cold and incredibly clear. My favourite part was walking along the wooden footbridges, which felt like walking through a fairy tale. Many thanks to the guide for the interesting stories.

It was love at first step 😍 Istanbul on the “Ottoman Capital” tour opened up to me in a completely new way! Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque gave me goosebumps 😭✨ places where you just want to stay quiet and look. I loved the walk through Balat: colourful, atmospheric, and the photos turned out great 🔥📸 A cruise on the Bosphorus is a magic of its own 💙 wind, seagulls, views… I didn’t want it to end. The guide spoke easily and interestingly, without boring dates, and everything stayed in my memory on its own. The tour was very comfortable, with plenty of beautiful moments 🥰 If you want to feel Istanbul and fall in love with it, this is 100% the right choice ✨

Cappadocia is like another planet. Underground cities, valleys and, of course, balloons at sunrise. This is one of those cases where photos don’t capture even half of the emotions.

We went on the “Aquarium” tour as a family with our child and were very happy 😊 For children it is pure delight: a huge aquarium, tunnels with fish, sharks and bright sea creatures 🐠🦈 My son watched with his mouth open and talked about what he had seen all evening. We really liked that the tour is not tiring and suits families with children well. After the aquarium there was a walk and a market, where we could stroll calmly and buy sweets and souvenirs 🍬🛍️ Everything was well organised, unhurried, with comfortable transport and breaks for rest. It was important to us that our child was interested and comfortable, and here everything matched 👍 A great family tour in Istanbul, especially if you are travelling with children and want to combine fun and learning.

I took the “Istanbul Night Postcards” tour and was very pleased. The city looks completely different in the evening: calmer, deeper, more atmospheric. The Bosphorus Bridge, the views from Nakkaştepe and the walk by the Maiden’s Tower impressed me especially; at night it looks truly stunning. Everything was organised superbly: comfortable transport, a logical route, no rushing around. I liked that the tour is not overloaded with facts but still gives a good sense of the city. Dinner in Turkish style was a pleasant end to the evening. A great option if you want to see Istanbul at its best.

The Sapadere tour is very comfortable and beautiful. It is not a strenuous walk, so you can stroll calmly and enjoy the views. A great option even for families with children.
