Cosa aspettarsi

Uncover the secrets of Ormana village and its surrounds. On this exclusive small group tour, you'll visit mysterious caves and the ruins of an ancient caravanserai as well as have the chance to see the famous Ormana wild horses. This is an experience with a special focus on sustainability and community engagement. But it's also rewarding for you. As Muzzafer, one of our local guides, says, ‘Wild horses running freely and swimming in an underground lake – these mountains have so much to offer you and your camera.'

We begin the day by taking freshly brewed Turkish tea in a traditional Anatolian house in Ürünlü, a charming hamlet of red-roofed wooden and stone homes. Next, we'll hike from a nearby canyon to the Altinbesik Caves. Here – during summer months only – you'll have the opportunity to enjoy a subterranean dinghy ride.

Then it's on to Ormana, with its wooden mosque and its unusual ‘button houses'. Contributions from this tour support the villagers' efforts to restore these centuries-old dwellings. Soak up Ormana's laidback vibe before sitting down for a lunch of ‘KM0' products in a family-owned restaurant. In the afternoon, we'll head to the nearby ruins of an ancient caravanserai – a medieval motel for travelling traders. To round off this immersive countryside tour, we'll venture to the desolate landscapes of the Eynif Plains, where you'll hopefully witness the majestic wild horses roaming in their natural habitat.

    Der Preis war schon teuer wenn man bedenkt das man dieses für die Hälfte in anderen Reisebüros bekommt, und ob man bei fast 30 Personen noch von einer Kleingruppe reden kann?

    Also als erstes ist und negativ aufgefallen das dir Tour uns angepriesen wurde als „kleine Gruppe“. 16 Personen maximal, wir waren 27. hätten wir das gewusst hätten wir das ganze schon mal abgewählt. 8 Hotels anfahren um Leute einzusammeln und diese wieder abzusetzen wollen wir nicht. Der Bus mit dem wir gefahren sind, super alt. Aber ok. Der Ausflug an sich und auch unser Reiseleiter waren top. Allerdings wollte man die ganze Fahrt etwas verkaufen das war nervig. Viele tolle Infos vom Leiter.

    Leider fand die Tour bei sehr schlechtem Wetter statt. Wir haben gar nichts gesehen, alles im Nebel. In Ormana selbst hat es geschüttet. Leider keine Regenschirme oder Capes im Bus. Bin sehr enttäuscht, da die Tour sehr teuer war und wir uns viel mehr versprochen haben. Wir haben auch mehrmals an Tagen zuvor nachgefragt, ob die Tour stattfindet. Wir sind sehr unzufrieden und erwarten ein Statement seitens tui. Die Tour hätten wir uns sparen können. Haben nichts gesehen außer Nebel.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Women of Antalya, Past to Present

Nearly two millennia ago, Plancia Magna blazed a trail by making an impressive impact on the city of Perge despite the usual passive role of women at that time. She was born into a wealthy, powerful family, but instead of an easy life, she used her privilege to benefit her city. Her courage, independence and character was celebrated long after her time, and inspired women through the ages to seek influential roles in society. Your National Geographic-trained guide will reveal the ancient city of Perge with a focus on the life and legacy of Plancia Magna, an inspirational figure even today. Perhaps Plancia was a source of inspiration for Hatice Adıgüzel, whose workshop you will visit next. Discover the skills and artistry involved in creating lamps and garden ornaments from gourds, and learn from Hatice herself what sets her business apart - her leadership in a male-dominated workforce, her commitment to empowering local women and her choice of sustainable materials. During a hands-on workshop, you will have the opportunity to create your own decorative gourd and learn more about Hatice's work with the local women's community. She pays her success forward by employing women to grow and decorate the gourds from their own homes for the business. They also make the snacks you'll enjoy during the workshop. Hatice's aim is to help women who are unable to work in regular employment due to childcare commitments or similar restrictions by giving them a convenient way to earn.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Exploring Antalya's Nomadic Culture

The foothills of the Taurus mountains have been a region of travel and trade for millennia. On this National Geographic tour, you'll embrace the region's ancient traditions that are still thriving today and immerse yourself in the nomadic lifestyle by visiting a Yörük family. Head over to the Seljuk bridge at Aspendos with your guide who will reveal alluring facts about the site. Built around the 4th century on the banks of Köprüçay, this architectural marvel is renowned for its distinctive zigzag design, a testament to its intriguing history. Continue your voyage and head over to an ancient caravanserai, where much of the original layout remains remarkably intact. Step back in time as you wander through the inn's chambers, guardian's quarters, bathhouse, and prayer hall alongside your guide. This is a place that radiates history, where countless travelers sought refuge and replenishment. The Yörük people have perfected their nomadic lifestyle for centuries. Every spring, communities migrate with their herds from the gentle coastal plains to the mountainous summer pastures. Spend time with a Yörük family and learn about their sustainable ways of life. Tuck into a tasty meal with eye-catching views of the Taurus mountains. Nearby, you'll find a spot to purchase locally-made goods like soaps, teas, oils, and more. Proceeds support communities affected by recent earthquakes or forest fires. Finally, Explore Ormana, an Ottoman village famous for its ingeniously crafted 'button houses'.
