We do not normally travel with guided tours but myself and my wife decided to try it for this trip to Turkey due to lack of planning time. This was such a good experience! Monica was very helpful in guiding us through our booking process and helping us prepare for the trip. Our tour manager Tony was very knowledgeable and really cared about everybody on the tour having a great experience in his country. Our tour group only had 14 people in it, and we were all a little family by the end of our 2 weeks together. The hotels were very nice, the food was good, and the wildlife was phenomenal. I would definitely recommend this agency to anyone considering it!
Excellent Tour of Western Turkey Our guide Çağman was very knowledgeable about both ancient and modern Turkish history, and about architecture. He provided in-depth descriptions of the places we visited, and was always happy to answer our questions and to give us suggestions for which regional foods to try as we proceeded through the country. The accommodations were all very nice, and we felt very safe and welcome in this beautiful, historic country.
Long bus journey but worth it. Major sights visited in Istanbul city. Gallipolli and Troy well worth visit,very interesting,hard to imagine human cost of war.Trenches still visable. Lots of archaeology at Troy and replica of wooden horse to go in. Good photo opportunities. Ephesus with ancient streets,roman toilets,columns,mosaics and carving of menorah. Amazing amphitheatre at Parmakeele,The Thermal Springs. Lots of people but lots of space. White rocks fab,water not warm,skin felt refreshed after dip. Hotels used were high quality. Breakfasts delicious. Time to visit museum shops and time for coffee break. Guide allowed plenty of toilet stops.
