This trip shows you the beauty of Uzungol. Mr. Taner has a very nice smile & amazing character. He showed us all the attractions starting from the Tea factory (Vatan Cay) & explaining the tea fermentation & making process, Surmene knife factory, the artificial waterfall, the lake view terrace, up the mountain & lunch. I recommend this trip especially with Mr. Taner & driver Mr. Ismael.

Sonya_N, Jun 2024
Şamil and Hussein gave a great tour! Şamil was very knowledgeable about the area and was eager to answer any of our questions. Hussein drove safely and smoothly throughout the tour. We visited a Surmene knife store where we learned about the knives and were able to purchase some. We then visited a tea factory where we were able to taste the tea they produce, learn about the tea and its process, watch a dance from that region, and purchase any tea related products. After that we made our way to 3 viewpoints of Uzungöl. Şamil took us to a local restaurant that served authentic food from the region which was amazing. We then had free time in the town to explore. Overall, it was a great tour that provided a full experience of the region!

bad trip

Zakria_H, Sep 2023
full day of nature is a scam first of all the tour guide doesn't speak English time is 10:30 not 10:00 after that i found that all the people in the bus pay 20$ or less and i paid 53$ for this trip so for the trip you will visit a knife store and Turkish delight store called ali baba and tea factory they will give you free normal red tea after that you will go to the Uzungöl lake if you want to go to the top you will have to pay extra money and its 130 tl per person after that you will have 1 hour and half to eat and enjoy the place so most of the trip you will be in the bus

A nice day outdoors. The lake is definitely spectacular. There were so many stops on the way and we got to see a lot of different sights. I think the lunch places could be better selected because the service wasn't great, but that's not a deal breaker - the food was good. Guide Samil was wonderful. Thanks for the great experience!

Uzungol is such a wonderful place.... beautiful lake, nice cold weather, foggy mountain and drizzling rain. We're glad to have Nigar as our tour guide. She's so pretty with sweet smiles all the time. I will never forget the very delicious trout we had for our lunch. Will recommend this tour to my friends. Thank you Zenofon tours.... such a wonderful experience.
