Sunny Side Travel Reviews 

I had an unforgettable experience on my trip from Side to Pamukkale yesterday! From the moment the tour began, our guide, Ibrahim, was incredibly warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable. His passion for Turkish history, culture, and traditions truly brought each site to life. The entire day was seamless—from the breathtaking hot air balloon ride to the fascinating tour of Hierapolis.

Ibrahim’s depth of expertise made the ancient ruins feel even more awe-inspiring. I learned so much and left with a greater appreciation for this beautiful country.

Before booking, I reached out to several tour operators, and Join Excursions stood out for their exceptional customer service. They responded to all my questions promptly via WhatsApp and were consistently polite and friendly. Based on this wonderful experience, I highly recommend both the trip and this agency.

I had amazing day with joinexcursions ! If you looking for a good fun, professional team don't think and just choice this company! Definitely I will back aswell 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We made a booking with this company for the Antalya Day Trip with a boat tour included.

From the beginning, the company were excellent at communicating with us, giving precise instructions regarding pick up etc and they answered our communications very promptly and politely

The excursion itself was excellent value for money. We had a really good driver who arrived promptly in a large coach.

Our tour guide Armed was superb! His wealth of knowledge was incredible and he made our tour very enjoyable. He was funny, and everyone enjoyed themselves. He also gave us lots of good tips about understanding Turkish customs /traditions which was incredibly useful and will continue to be so on our future visits to Turkey. His wealth of history knowledge of Antalya and Turkey was vast and he made it interesting so that we didn't lose interest. He is the best tour guide that I've had the pleasure to meet! A true asset to the company!

The meal that was included in the price was very good and the restaurant itself was nice too.

The boat trip was around 1 hour and it was very enjoyable, even for someone like me who isn't a fan of boats because of sea sickness!

The waterfalls were stunning, we loved them. Don't forget your camera.

All in all, this trip was outstanding!

As always in a true review, things to be mindful of on this trip:-

Wear comfortable walking shoes as there is quite a bit of walking to do.

The walk to the port to go on the boat is steep and can be slippy, so be careful. It's a steep walk back up so anyone with walking difficulties may struggle. (I think I saw a lift, but can't be 100% on that, so you'd have to double check that). Don't miss it though as it's stunning!

This is definitely a trip to go on. We had the best day.

Thank you so much for a truly enjoyable day. 😊😊🩷🩷

Fantastic Hamam experience. As a Mother with 3 kids (16,13,11) it was a great morning we were nicely picked up as agreed. Such a Nice people in the bathing house. Very Nice also for my 11 year daughter. We were back arouns 2:30 at the hotel.

Fantastic day for all the family! Action packed adventure, which doesn't stop from one section to the next. The drivers make it great fun and whilst playful, still drive sensibly. We added the boat trip that was relaxing, and the chicken lunch after was delicious that even my fussy 7yr old ate. My only regret is I didn't buy the photos and video they took, as looking back they would be nice to have.
Tip: Take water, as drinks are expensive.

Note - honest company. I left my wallet in the Jeep which they returned to me at no charge, still with the cash inside.

We booked a family trip includes Jeep Safari and river Rafting . The team is so professional and give all clear instructions . They speak English and Deutsche and some Arabic as well which is great. We had a good guide by Hadji who's is so professional. I would definitely come again .

Great experience we had. Very quick and good communication! Nice bus drivers, freandly personal and a great captain.
It was a great day!!

Wonderful experience with join excursions .
They are very professional and offer reasonable rates.We thoroughly enjoyed our vacations taking multiple trips and every trip was planned and organized in a way that we never get bored and every activity was on time , food was good and staff was very cooperative and caring

Brilliant service from start to finish, easy to book, very polite and professional. We had an amazing day horse trekking, picked us up and dropped us back. We went trekking on the horses, stopped off and walked up to a little castle exploring a little cave and to top it off was able to see the sunset with an amazing view of Alanya, mustaf and his team were lovely at the ranch 😍 fantastic day, highly recommend 🌟

Booked the belek Turkish baths .. driver was on time to the minute and the experience was brilliant! Absolute bargain at £40 for 2 adults and we even brought our 2 year old toddler along with us that loved playing with the bubbles and having her own little massage from one of the ladies. Would highly recommend!

It was a great time there. Amazing views and water. So nice for swimming. Lunch tasty with view on the river. Free time for make some photos. All was great!!!

Reasonable price and fast responsive to enquiries

Great people, the drivers very very friendly. And one thing to mention the responses on whatsapp are really fast which helps a lot in cases like Inhad I could not find the driver when we finished the trip and they immedeately responded and helped me

The staff is very professional, helpful and prompt.
We had a great day, everything was very well organized. The prices of the excursions are very competitive. I highly recommend this company!

The worst operator you could use, the driver fell asleep at the wheel and struck another vehicle at high-speed with no seat belts nearly killing men, women and children. Then proceeded to drive erratically, narrowly missing a number of other vehicles and rear ending an ambulance. I'd suggest there was a high likelihood they had been drinking while on the tour. Very dangerous, if you aren't a fan of living then I'd definitely recommend them.

Just to follow on, the operator did nothing to investigate and instead is attempting discredit my review to save safe. I can assure you there are no safety standards and you and your family will be at great risk if you engage in any of their tours. Id pay the extra and use the hotels tours if I had my time again.

Easy booking online and good communication with the representative. Unfortunately we couldn't pay online for the tickets! Cash only! Pick up from the hotel on time. According to the website you should get a guide during the trip- none on the boat. We had no idea when we reached the turtle bay as no info given to us during the trip. We were hoping to learn about Antalya as described on the website. Variety of lunch choices not as described on the website too ( grilled chicken, spaghetti and cabbage salad served for lunch).We enjoyed the trip, but some improvement is needed with the customer care.

I used this company for a diving trip in Side, Turkey on Fri 16 Aug 24. From initial enquiry to the end of the trip the customer service was excellent. The diving trip itself was outstanding; friendly and hospitable staff ensured I was well looked after and all novice divers were put at ease from the offset. Moreover the pick up / drop off was smooth and the lunch delicious. Furthermore the value for money was brilliant - Highly recommended 👍

Would not ever recommend this company! Firstly they want everything paid in cash. We booked the dolphin experience (nearly £500) we were unable to get to a cash machine before pick up. So we were left outside whilst the dolphin show had started to ‘search’ for a cash machine.
After about an hour and finally being able to withdraw cash, the communication with the representative was very unhelpful. At one point he offered to take a card payment but would put 20% on to the total! No way!
I’m sorry but I went with a friend and our two daughters, so for them to expect us to be carrying this amount of cash is strange. You can use ApplePay and cards in all shops, (albeit some you have to spend more than €10 to use a card) restaurants and bars etc so trying to make another £100 out of us is ridiculous.
We missed most of the show.
After that we had booked a personal group swim with the dolphins. It was very rushed and we were only in there for about 5 minutes. It was like a conveyor belt, one in one out.
Our group was one of the last participants. Once we got out we headed to the changing rooms to get dressed. On the way there the ‘driver’ said ‘are you ready we are about to leave’. I said we had only just got out of the pool and we needed to change and also wanted time to look at the photos they had taken of us so we could buy some as it’s obviously a very important experience that you would like to have a memory of.
Once we changed quickly the driver again said he was leaving and again we said we wanted to purchase some photos. He was not happy and kept huffing and puffing whilst waiting.
We paid a lot of money for this and to be rushed when it wasn’t our fault the time slot for us was (that they had booked) was later than everyone else’s. Not our fault! It really put an unsavoury feeling to the experience.
Yesterday unknown to me my friend had booked another trip through them to the caves. Last night my daughter fell over and broke her arm and we had to attend hospital and only got out at 9am.
I had no signal at the hospital so had no way of contacting the company saying that we were unable to make the trip.
I get that they are a business and this must be very annoying and I accept that fact they have lost a ‘sell’ as it were.
But as soon as I got back to the hotel and connected to the WiFi, I received a series of messages.
One including threatening to send a lawyer/ legal representation to the hotel to obtain the money from me.
One with a payment link telling me I had to pay them through that to avoid legal action.
And then a series of messages saying I was disrespectful and not a nice person!
I would normally pay my dues, however after getting these scaremongering messages I was not about to part with my money.
I told them to send legal representation and all of a sudden they blocked me and called me more derogatory names before doing so.
So I would definitely not recommend this cowboy company with a very unprofessional attitude and think it’s acceptable to make threats to a woman.
His name was Michael and he should be very ashamed of himself!

Reply to Join Excursions’s:
It’s ok to lie and pretend that you never threatened me or that you never did send messages of which were rude and unkind.

I’ve have the message’s here of which we exchanged, screen shots.

I’m glad I did because all of a sudden you deleted the messages off of the WhatsApp chat…………why would you do that? If you were innocent of not trying to coax me and threaten me with legal action, why delete the messages with that content in the chat???? Suspicious

Joinexcursion is an OUTSTANDING TRUSTWORTHY
RELIABLE and definitely
