Sümela Monastery on its cliff, the misty shore of Uzungöl and the city from Boztepe: a private introduction to the Black Sea.
The Black Sea runs on a different rhythm: the green is darker, the cloud sits lower, the table is warmer. The day opens with Sümela Monastery in the Maçka valley, its story told by your guide beneath the cliff it hangs from. Then Uzungöl, where the mist settles over the lake, and Hamsiköy for its famous rice pudding. On the way back, Boztepe shows Trabzon from above and a short walk through the old bazaar closes the day. The pace is set by the guest; stops flex with the weather.
Stops flex with the weather, traffic and your guest's pace.
