Good comfortable experience, but huge cost markup

Roopesh_S, Sep 2025
TLDR: Nice experience for family travelling with 2 kids. Comfortable, slow paced, lots of toilets, mediocre food, huge viator cost markup. We were promptly picked up just outside the resort on the road at 9am in a huge 50seater AC bus. 30mins of travel from Sarigerme and you reach the boats. The guide was informative. Then it's a pit stop at mud bath after 15mins boat ride. The mud bath & thermal spa was well maintained, clean and not crowded at all for mid September. After about an hour there, we were on a boat for another 20mins and stopped at a great place for lunch overlooking the Dalyan Tombs. Food was well below average, but was included the price. Post lunch another 20mins of boat ride into the turtle conservative area. Loads of boats sailing into turtle beach. There are some huge turtle which come close to the shore when crabs are thrown into the water. You get about 2hrs at the turtle beach, you which is a nice shallow beach, the children enjoyed. While returning most of the bus started to pay in cash for the tour. The tour was from 'Basket Travels' and were paying £34 per adult. Essentially trivago were charging £50. For a family of 4, with one under 6 kid who was free I ended up paying £40 extra. This wasn't. A great feeling. The tour itself was great and we were back at the hotel at 5:30 in the evening.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience. We are delighted that you and your family enjoyed the day from the mud baths and river cruise to Turtle Beach and that the children had a memorable time. We also appreciate your comments about the lunch, and we will certainly share this feedback with our partners so they can improve. On the pricing side, our agency price is £34 per adult with under-6s free, as you mentioned.

Good day out and really nice boat trip. George the tour guide was very informative and friendly, made the trip a lot more fun.

Great day out!

Well organised trip. Great with children. Lovely guide and boat driver. Excellent value for money. Some confusion over soft drinks at the restaurant as a staff member said it was included in the package, but as stated it wasn't included. Not an issue, but clearly staff from the restaurant needs to know. Exceptional day out.

Excellent trip,well...
