We pick up our valued guests in the morning from the departure points previously communicated to you and begin our Yedigöller, Sapanca, Maşukiye Hobbit Houses, and Ormanya tour.
Our first stop will be our restaurant with a magnificent view, located on the shore of Lake Sapanca, which has an area of approximately 46.9 km² and lies at the foothills of the Samanlı Mountains, with Bozburun to the west and the Geyve Gorge of the Sakarya River to the east. Here, we enjoy a delightful breakfast accompanied by a lake view.
After breakfast, we head toward Yedigöller National Park, home to 236 different plant species, especially lilies, cyclamens, crocuses, and orchids. In this natural wonder, home to some of our country’s richest and most untouched forests, we first climb to the Kapankaya Hill Observation Point to enjoy a bird’s-eye view of the unique scenery of the lakes and the valley.
Then, İncegöl, Sazlıgöl, Seringöl, Kurugöl, Nazlıgöl, and Dilek Çeşmesi, famous for its waterfall formed by water flowing from its base, await us. Here, we traditionally take “seven sips from seven lakes” and make our wishes. After seeing Gülenkayalar, we take a photo break around Büyükgöl, the largest and deepest lake of our tour, with a maximum depth of 15 meters.
After this full day spent immersed in nature, we meet at our vehicle at the time set by our guide and set off for the hotel where we will stay.
Day 2: Maşukiye - Glass Terrace - Ormanya - Hobbit Houses - Upside-Down House - Lake Sapanca - Sukay Park Sapanca Lakeside - Zoo - Adventure Park - Istanbul
On the second day of our Yedigöller, Sapanca, Maşukiye, Hobbit Houses and Ormanya Tour, after having breakfast at our hotel, we board our bus and begin our journey toward the Ayrı Gezegen Glass Terrace, located on the road to Kartepe. Ayrı Gezegen Glass Terrace is the first and only glass terrace in the Marmara Region. From this glass terrace, you can enjoy views of Lake Sapanca and the unique mountain scenery. Ayrı Gezegen Glass Observation Terrace covers an area of 460 m2, 100 m2 of which is made of glass, and it stands at a height of 185 meters. After completing our visit to the Glass Terrace, we set off toward Maşukiye.
When we arrive in Maşukiye, during our free time, our guests may spend time in the cafés or take a walk while enjoying the beauty of nature. You are sure to feel more invigorated by walking amid visual wonders, oxygen-rich forests and wonderful floral scents. The time you spend in Maşukiye, even if only briefly escaping the dreary atmosphere of the city, will leave different and memorable impressions on your life. Guests who wish may also participate in activities such as nature excursions, ATV safaris, ziplining or UTV tours in Maşukiye. All of these activities are subject to an additional charge.
A 10–15-minute briefing is provided on UTV or ATV use and safety. Following this short but important briefing, our group begins the safari under the guidance of a tour leader. The safari lasts approximately 45 minutes.
During this excursion, we will undertake a challenging journey along forest trails among beech trees. We take short breaks on the trails and while crossing streams and waterways to photograph the beautiful scenery of the Samanlı Mountains. All guests who meet the necessary requirements may take part in the additional activities.
After our visit to Maşukiye, we set off toward Ormanya. Ormanya Natural Life Park consists of six main sections: a zoo, a wildlife area, walking and cycling trails, a caravan and tent camping area, a nature school and a wildlife rescue center. Ormanya is home to 467 animals from 53 different species. Many species, including fallow deer, gazelles and roe deer, continue their generations in the park’s natural habitats. Visitors can observe animals from 53 different species in their natural environments. After completing our tour, we board our vehicles and begin our journey to Istanbul.
After arriving in Istanbul, we regretfully say goodbye to our valued guests after dropping you off at the locations where we picked you up, hoping to see you at our next event.
Our arrival time in Istanbul is 20:00–21:00.
