Still think it best to hire a car and make your own way, in your own time.
Of course, finances allowing.
Guess UK£ 20.00/ £25.00 per day for car hire but that's a year ago.
Didn't come across the "fake park" but there are far better informed posters than I on this forum and I was probably lucky.
I've always been far happier hiring a car and occasionally getting lost. There've also been happy accidents where I've found some roadside gems e.g. a stone baked trout and flatbread for 4 Lira! (and no tummy upset).
Driving on your own opens up a world of different experiences.
