My reviews
-
Selda was communicative before the tour and worked with me to adjust the itinerary a few times based on changes in our other plans. She let me know in advance that there’s a festival during the weekend of our arrival and sent me the schedule so we could enjoy the activities. We loved all the stories and historical knowledge as well as the local foodie tips. Highly enjoyed our tour!

Was a very enjoyable tour with Selda. by skipping the main attractions (as requested), I could see sights I would have surely missed if walking on my own.
