    Our tour guide, Furqan, was very nice and the tour was well organized, but the description is very misleading. Apparently there is no trekking in this tour at the moment since the restaurants and cafes in Ihlara Valley have been shut down by the government. The trek is replaced by a couple of shopping stops and a 15 minute optional walk. My friends and I really wished we were informed earlier since we weren't interested in some of the stops. If you're in it for the trekking and looking for a break from the shopping tours, this ain't the one!
