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.

We hadden een super goede gids waarbij het absoluut niet saai was om naar te luisteren. Veel over de cultuur gehoord en hij was in voor een geintje

Jammer. Je kiest een Nederlandse gids en je krijgt een Duitse. Zonder vooraf te geinformeerd te worden.

Krappe bus achterste passagiers zaten in de verdrukking. Kies voor een wat grotere bus dan een Ford Transit, te krap voor een groep van 17 pax.
