With our valued guests,
We meet at Giresun Atapark at 06:00 and begin our full-day Çeçeva (Haremtepe) Tea Garden and Ayder Plateau tour. We stop at the establishment where we will have our breakfast at Trabzon Sera Lake (Extra). After breakfast, we visit the Vatan Tea Factory, which served as the setting for the series "Taşacak Bu Deniz." Following the route through Rize, Turkey's rainiest province, we stop at the Bezhane Workshop to witness the traditional weaving process of Rize Bez on looms dating back 300 years. After learning about the crafts and having Hemşin-style manuscripts tied, we board our minibuses and head to the Çayeli Haremtepe (Çeceva) Village Tea Garden, a site visited by many travelers (Extra). In Çeçeva Village, located 6 km away, known in recent years for being the location of all tea commercials seen on television, we take a photo break at Uncle Kenan's tea garden before heading towards the Fırtına Valley. We enter the establishment in Fırtına Valley, one of the world's top 100 ecologically important valleys to be protected, where we will enjoy lunch, Zipline, and swing rides amidst a thousand shades of green. During the free time provided, we partake in these beautiful activities. At the scheduled time, we return to our vehicle and arrive at Ayder Plateau, situated at an altitude of 1400 meters, leaning against the Kaçkar Mountains and referred to by the local people as the "Plateau in the Sea of Clouds." After traveling between Gelintülü Waterfall, Kalegon Area, Şenlik Düzü, and the Old Ayder Houses, we are given free time on the plateau. At the designated time, we return to our vehicle and depart from Ayder Plateau. We have dinner featuring the famous İspir dried beans, buttered rice, and Rize roast meat, then begin our journey back. In the evening hours, we drop off our valued guests at the pickup points in Giresun and bid farewell, looking forward to meeting again on another PİKOLA TUR excursion.
