Lycian Way Walking Holiday, Turkey reviews
Read holiday reviews by Mountain Kingdoms travellers.
Alp, the guide, was superb - efficient, friendly, and a real polymath - we learnt so much about history, geography, linguistics and ethnography from him - a real treat. The city hotel was central with easy access to the old town, harbour, and good restaurants. The trek hotels were really well chosen - small and friendly, with character and good food. The opportunities to view ancient sites, the boat trip, and the fiery mountain were great additions to the walking experience. A really memorable holiday.
Excellent walking holiday, we learned so much about the ancient history and natural environment. Arriving at sites from the wild countryside provided a unique perspective, much enhanced by the knowledgeable and caring guide. And the sea was lovely too, both the views and for a delicious dip at the end of the day.
Our guide, Alp, was one of the best guides we have ever had on any kind of holiday. He was kind, knowledgeable, helpful, flexible and funny. The trip enabled us to see very different landscapes and to have a range of different walks, all within a short driving distance. Alp adapted some of the walks in response to our abilities, which we really appreciated - but we still felt challenged (in a good way) and that we achieved a lot. On most days we hardly saw any other walkers. This was our first Mountain Kingdoms trip. Based on this experience, it won't be our last.
