I loved the canyoning and white water rafting - lots of laughs and challenges to get your heart racing. The mountain biking day was one of the best days as the scenery was gorgeous and the village lunch a fantastic experience.

We thought the service was excellent. We loved the laid back attitude...On a few evenings we had dinner on the beach with a fire underneath the beautiful starry sky which we thought was quite special.

One of the best holiday we have been on in the last few years. The operator were very well organised and provided very good guides, They also provided lunch and our guide Nurden always had some cakes or drinks and stopped at some lovely spots when we needed a rest.

It's hard to say what the most memorable thing was but one memory that stands out is being served an absolutely delicious breakfast every day at a table with a perfect white table cloth surrounded by flowers, friendly hens and kittens - all right on the edge of a stunning beach!

The trip was well organised. Staff were helpful at booking stage. We enjoyed all activities (scuba diving, jeep drive to gorge and sea kayaking) and loved our time on the gullet.

Really enjoyed the holiday, partly due to the good weather and the company of the other families. Highlights were river walking through a beautiful canyon in the Garrotxa national park.

This was a fantastic week. The other people were just brilliant, as were the guides. I would not hesitate to recommend this holiday, and I can't wait until next year to go again.

The trek to the mountains was challenging but do-able and gave us the privilege of sharing tea made in an ancient copper kettle.

Thoroughly enjoyable with a fabulous small group of really friendly people who shared all aspects of the tour in fun whilst caring for the people and their language.

The Aya Sofia was breathtaking and the Topkapi Palace was also very atmospheric. The hamam (turkish baths) were brilliant...

A brilliant trip. Got to get away from the crowded tourist areas and see the real beauty of Turkey. Really friendly and helpful guides and company owner who helped us with everything we needed and more.

For a burnt out, stressed westerner, the village home stay gave me a much more therapeutic experience than checking into a 5 star spa hotel, for a few days. The simplicity, ancient resonances of the village and slower pace of life quickly made stress melt away.
