This was a good tour. Plenty of time at the blue eye and a great visit to the castle for the incredible sunset. The castle restaurant was so lovely it was a shame not to be able to stay for dinner. Next time I would plan to go for a sunset dinner there. The guide was very nice.

Really enjoyed this tour to blue eye and lekursi castle. The tour was nicely paced and tour guide added extra information. Would recommend especially if you only want a half day activity. Good value for money. Good communication with operator too.

The pick up details were excellent and clear about the location and time of departure. The guide was great and made the tour enjoyable even in rainy conditions. Even though it was not part of the tour because we had he took us to see a monastery. The sunset at the castle was great.

Thank you!

We went to the blue eye first in a small private car and our guide was extremely pleasant and helpful. After some time at the blue eye, we then continued to the castle.
The city view from the castle and watching the sunset were amazing. There was even a live band playing some music to serenade the area with a blend of blissful emotions.
Highly recommend.
