Captain Ergün and the people working together with him are one of the most attentive tour team I have ever met throughout southern Mediterranean area. To very beginning, just after you are taken to boat, it doesn't take your much time to understand that you are going to be serviced by the people who absolutely enjoy to be there! This already gives the clue about what your trip going to be like! The energy they spread out makes you feel comfortable and relax and the trip keeps going the same way, too. Beside, you meet so so so delicious food, drone records of your memorable time and information about history and soul of Kaş's islands. My overall impression is, I highly recommend Ergün's boats and I can't wait to have another one again the next time! Thanks!

I booked this tour as a private tour and I am absolutely thrilled. Already at the pick-up you feel like a VIP because of the spacious vehicle. The catering is fully included and very good despite current legal restrictions. Great importance is attached to hygiene measures for pandemic prevention without having to have any significant restrictions on the experience. The guide speaks perfect German. Apart from that, he also speaks several other languages fluently. He really has an extensive expertise. You can have an excellent conversation about the cultures, mythologies as well as art. Although several sites are visited that are a bit far from each other, one is at the sights most of the time. The ancient buildings are fascinating and it is an indescribable feeling to stand in the middle of an ancient trade route while the guide describes life and events there at that time. At least as impressive are the waterfalls surrounded by nature and a park that invites you to explore. For cultural tourists, this tour is without a doubt a must.
