Do your research, hotel ratings in US are different than Turkey. Give info on interests and research the places they are sending you. We needed to make our expectations and wants clearer to help them help us, otherwise they will send you on a private trip that is the same as the big busses.
Great trip! Had a great 6 days in Turkey seeing several sites: Istanbul, Ephesus, Pamukkale, Cappadocia. Our tour guide, Alican provided a recommended itinerary that was well balanced and let us see a lot in a short time. Really great experience overall, both in terms of sightseeing and food!
We just got back from our private tour of Turkey with Alican, a local travel specialist. I have been to many countries and know many tour guides but Alican is the best tour guide I have ever met. Turkey is definitely interesting and scenic, but Alican made it an excellent trip. He is super generous and kind, and very knowledgeable.
