Op jullie site staat wheelchair toegankelijk. Mijn vader heeft een rollator en dit ook aangegeven voor de balletvoorstelling in Aspendos. We worden netjes opgehaald bij het hotel. Vervolgens worden we een eind voor de ingang uit de bus gezet om verder te lopen. Niet te doen voor iemand die slecht ter been is en daarom een rollator nodig heeft. Had ons voor de ingang uitgezet, was er niets aan de hand.

Booked last minute and was pleased to still be able to get a space on the bud!! Service was good and driver looked after us ensured we could find the bud again after the Opera.

Die Location in Kombination mit der klassischen Oper ist selbst für Menschen die kein Operfan sind ein Highlight. Der Transfer hat auch pünktlich geklappt. Vor Ort war alles etwas kaotisch aber das passte schon. Für die Aspendos Arena Events sollte man allerdings einiger maßen gut zu Fuß sein.

We are 100% satisfied. A wonderful evening! The driver picked us up at the hotel and drove us back after the opera. The guide took us to the entrance and pointed out where to meet him after the opera.

Все отлично: автобус хороший, вовремя забрали, всех дождались) и привезли назад. Выгодное предварительное бронирование, иначе бы мы не попали на представление.

Having never been to an opera before, the opportunity to go to one and in such a spectacular setting, was too good to turn down. Easy to book, transfers arranged to and from hotel to and all on time. If you are in Side, Turkey during this festival, you have to go...you will not be disappointed. A truly great experience.
