Explore Antalya’s Duden Waterfalls, Old Town, harbor, and Mediterranean coast on a value-packed day tour with lunch and hotel pickup.
“This could have been a fabulous trip as we had a good guide and driver and the places we visited were great. However, the van was far too cramped and the timings just didn’t work because of the tardiness of some clients and the fact our guide got involved in helping out another group. This meant delays to the boat trip and lunch being at nearly 3pm. The lunch was fine and included in the ticket price but a real hard sell by the restaurant for expensive extras like drinks, fries, hummus etc. On a positive note Duden waterfall is worth a look though again we were delayed by clients…”
