Highly recommended! This is definitely a great experience! My family said the lunch on the boat was delicious. And I think the cushions on the boat are very comfortable to lie on. I fell asleep for a while, and the sea breeze made our family forget the time. Seeing the blue sea, I couldn't help but jump in to swim. It was also very convenient to change clothes and go to the toilet! You must not miss this activity when you come to Turkey!

It was a very nice experience to do this boat tour. The value for money was excellent. We paid (low saison) TL 1000 per person. We drove with our own car to the harbor. Lunch was good. A bit more explanation on the way would be great.

Very relaxed day with lots of swimming and a great tour. We walked up to the castle for some amazing views. Fantastic home made lunch. Only about 30 people when we went. I was worried as I easily get seasick but this was not a problem. One of the highlights of our trip.

My wife and I had to decide whether to join or not to join this tour in April. We never thought we would enjoy this tour so much. We had a lot of swimming time in the bays we visited. The boat crew was very friendly and helpful. We are looking forward to our next trip. We definitely recommend it.
