Entry 11 Choosing
Guided tour or independent visit to Tazı Canyon?
Comparing the two
| With a tour | On your own | |
|---|---|---|
| Getting there | Transfer from your hotel area | You drive the narrow final road |
| Time at the rim | Set by the guide and the day's plan | Your own choice |
| Lunch | Included | You arrange it |
| Other sights | Rafting or Selge in the same day | Whatever you can fit in |
| Entrance fees | Extra, paid on the day | Ask on arrival |
| Departure days | Depend on your area | Any day you choose |
What independence gets you
Freedom, mainly. You can arrive when the light suits you, stay as long as you like and leave when the crowd arrives. The price of that freedom is the road: narrow, then unsurfaced, as our access guide explains. And no one will tell you where the safe places to stand are.
What a guide adds
A guide knows where the group should stand, handles the logistics and keeps an eye on the weather. On a combined day, everything from the raft to lunch is already arranged. The downside is equally plain: a fixed plan, other people's pace, and only so long at the viewpoint.
If you want the canyon and nothing else
With us, that is only possible as a private tour on request. There is no published price, since it depends on the group and the starting point, so you would need to ask.
Common questions
Is there a Tazı-only group tour?
Not a regular one from us. Our group days combine the canyon with rafting or with Selge. Alone, it can be arranged privately on request.
