Visiting the ancient city was interesting, but the real highlight of the day was the walk along the gorge. Wet shoes were definitely necessary (which we had), and our tour guide insisted we wear hard hats due to loose rocks. It was great walking through the water and scrambling up the rapids. We were free to walk at our own pace. It was a unique experience, and definitely worth the time spent on the hot coach ride.

It was a fantastic visit to both the stunning gorge and the legendary home of Pegasus. I would definitely recommend this to anyone with an interest in history. The lunch was enjoyable, served at a charming hillside taverna with a unique atmosphere.
