Everything about the trip was excellent. Thank you, Mete! Green Canyon is an incredible place to visit. The entire tour lasted around 4-5 hours, including lunchtime. The lunch was good, with a choice between fish or meat. We also had the chance to swim and do some fishing.

We arranged our excursion with Yusuf very easily via WhatsApp. The whole process was smooth, and we had the option to pay online or in cash on the day of the tour. We were picked up from our hotel right on time, just as promised. During the drive to the boat, our guide shared some local history, which we really enjoyed. The boat ride through the canyon was incredible, and there was also a short stop for swimming and fishing. Lunch orders were taken on the way, with options including grilled fish, chicken, or meatballs, along with a salad bar and vegetarian choices. Soft drinks, coffee, and tea were included on both the boat and at the restaurant. Overall, it was a fantastic day trip. Big thanks to Yusuf for all the help I highly recommend this experience!

The excursion was okay overall. Booking with Yusuf was straightforward, and the pickup from the hotel was on time, which was good. The guide shared some local history, which was interesting, and the boat ride through the canyon offered nice views. However, the swimming stop was quite short, and the fishing felt a bit rushed. The lunch options were decent, though nothing special, and the salad bar was limited. Drinks were included, which was a plus. While it was a pleasant enough day, I felt the experience could have been better organized and paced. It was enjoyable but didn’t fully meet my expectations.

Overall, it was a very good tour. Booking was simple, and the pickup from our hotel was punctual. The guide provided some interesting local history on the way to the boat. The boat ride through the canyon was beautiful, and the swim stop was refreshing. Lunch offered a good variety with grilled fish, chicken, and meatballs, along with a salad bar and vegetarian options. Drinks were included throughout the trip, which was appreciated. The only small downside was that the schedule felt a bit rushed at times, and I would have liked a longer swim break. Nevertheless, it was an enjoyable and well organized trip that I would recommend.
