Me and my partner were planning to have a beautiful trip through the caves, we booked the trip a couple of months ago and we were very looking forward to explore beautiful caves.
In reality what happened was that on the day we booked it, we received a WhatsApp message from the organiser asking us more information about the pick up location. We told him our hotel address and he confirmed that it works for them.
The day before the trip, we received a WhatsApp message from the organiser saying that they are not able to pick us up from the hotel listed. They provided us with the alternative location which was 7 hours walk from our hotel and 30 min on the taxi. We asked them if they are willing to pay for our taxi fares and they refused. Our excursion involved pick up and drop off so we thought that it was reasonable enough for them to organise that for us.
They let us know the day before the trip so we were not able to get our refund. I think that they must've done it on purpose to get our money.
It's a scam so please do not get anything from them. They will leave you in a difficult position from which you will have to raise a dispute with the bank in order to get your money back.

Transport arrived on time, and guide was really nice, spent lots of time explaining the local history on the journey. Plenty of stops to take pictures and get some air. Cave was amazing and again guides were excellent. Food at traditional restaurant was delicious and tour of village and mosque really was like stepping back in time. Would recommend trip to all.

A very nice tour to learn something about the country. From booking to being picked up at the hotel to being transported back to the hotel, everything went perfectly! The German-speaking tour guide Memet explained everything in good, understandable German and with humor.
The Altinbesik cave and the visit to the mountain villages were a great experience. The food was also very good. Overall, a great tour!

If you don’t understand German, don’t bother going. You won’t be carried along and they won’t care.
I’m guessing they wanted to cheap out and provided only a German guide, meanwhile tour says English and German. When I complained they said they have an English translator who was speaking German and turkish 95% of the time.

Very good organization. Mete gave me all the necessary details regarding pick-up time and meeting point the evening before.
The tour guide, Jenny, passed on his knowledge to us with a lot of fun and joy. The cave is definitely worth a visit. The small, sleek village of Sarihacilar is also very beautiful. It is definitely a highly recommended tour.

The view was amazing, the food was very nice. The service and tour guides were amazing, Ibrahim was very informative as well as friendly. The village was beautiful, and the locals were friendly. Would definitely recommend. I would recommend for families with children as well, there were some on our groups and they seemed to enjoy themselves as well.

A very informative tour; the guide 'Johnny' was very knowledgeable and did a great job of explaining everything in multiple languages.
Mete has been in contact before and after the trip to ensure everything has been clear and straightforward before the tour and that we were happy afterwards - I'd happily recommend to anyone visiting the area!

The tour was very varied, we saw a lot of the country and the people, took photo stops in the Taurus Mountains, a mountain village with a delicious lunch, explored a cave with rubber dinghies and visited a self-catering village with button houses and a mosque. Our tour guide was very funny, relaxed and explained a lot to us about the culture and the places. All in all, it was great, it was a wonderful day and our first booking, we were a little worried about the price as the hotels charge significantly different prices.
