  This tour was ambitious and exactly what I was looking for in that it covered all the major historic highlights in Turkey in one shot. I did not do the balloon ride in Cappadocia but the cave homes and tufa structures were worth it. Historic Ephesus was a major destination and matched all the hype. The ancient sites of Pamukkale, Hierapolis, Perge and Aspendos were a goal of the trip. For the most part the guides were excellent, knowledgeable and personable. I've never been on a "tour" where each day I had new guides and new guests. None the less, all the connections worked. Were I to do this again, I would add some space between stops.Show more

  Iglesias Tours, the on-the-ground operator, were fantastic in organization, communication, all details, transportation, promptness, guides provided. Can’t recommend them highly enough! Information was not being communicated by TourRadar to one of our group prior to the tour, and Iglesias jumped right in and fixed the problem. The tour itself was beautiful. The variety of guides helped to provide perspective on history in Turkey, which we loved. Air transportation for the 3 flights during the tour was expertly arranged. All questions were promptly answered. Special thanks to Ismail Kuscu and to Melisa of Iglesias for their excellent service. I recommend Iglesias without reservation!Show more

  This tour was fantastic. Iglesias local tour operators took great care of us. All the hotels were very good and in great locations. All the tour guides were very knowledgeable, accommodating, and friendly. The transportation, the communication was excellent. I would like to thank Ismail Kuscu for his wonderful communication with us. He answered all our questions in a very timely matter, like super fast. All guides were on time to pick us up and/or communicated with us if the pick up time has changed. We hit all the highlights of Turkey in the short period of time we had. I want to thank all our tour guides: Ismail & his wife Fatime, Harun in Pammucale, Bekir our driver, Mehmet driver, Mehmet Hosein our guide in Antlya, I can't remember all the guides and drivers names but they were all fantastic. I highly recommend this local tour organization. My husband and I had a wonderful time. If you are signing up for hot air balloon ride, you have to be serious about this as the organization books your seat ahead of time and you are obligated to pay the full amount unless due to weather condition, the ride is canceled. I did the hot air balloon ride and it was an incredible experience. I highly recommend it. This tour covers a lot so be ready to have an amazing adventure.Show more

  We are very glad we decided to go with the 8 Day tour. Everything was so well planned and super organised. The transportation was all very comfortable and organised. It ranged from comfortable mini bus to private VIP cars to public bus (only one time for a short distance). Accomodation was excellent in all the cities except the one in Fethiye (this one was a bit old and really small). All lunch and breakfast were really great too. Lunch is usually in a big restaurant and it is buffet style. You do have to pay for you drinks (and water as well :/). We especially enjoyed the lunch in Izmir when Ismail took us to a family owned local restaurant. The itinerary of the tour was really great too, however towards the end of our trip especially in Antalya, we felt that we had seen too many historical sites and really wished we could do and see something different. For example we wished we could explore the beauty of Antalya (e.g. the the waterfalls, the beaches, city tour etc) instead of going to 3 different ruins (which we had seen so many by this point). Therefore I believe this tour is mostly historical based. It does involve lots of walking so make sure to wear comfortable clothing and have water with you. Additional activities we really enjoyed during this tour was the Turkish Night Show and quad bike in Cappodacia, swimming in cleopatra swimming pool Pamukkale and boat cruise to 6 islands in Fethiye (Booked through hotel). All the travel guides were super informative, super nice and friendly. This is except for our first tour guide in Cappadocia who showed a little unprofessionalism. overall very happy with our experience and we will defiantly book more tours.Show more

  This tour exceeded our expectations in every way! Even before the tour started it was easy to message our tour agent, Ismail, with any questions and he always responded in a timely manner. During the tour he also responded quickly and checked in with us to make sure the tour was satisfactory. All the locations of our hotels were in old city centers, which we loved because it made it easy to walk around and explore the area when we had free time. All of our guides (and hot air balloon pilot) were great. A special thank you to Tuncer K. during our Cappadocia tour and Fatma K. during our Ephesus tour. Both gave us additional recommendations for what to do in those areas during our free time. Overall, we could not believe how much we got to explore in Turkey in just 8 days. We loved it and hope to be back to explore more!Show more

  This was the most perfect trip! Iglesias Travel were so quick to respond through the whole booking process. Even with little hiccups and delays they were in contact throughout the trip. The itinerary was perfect for me as it had guided tours for the historical and local sites, with free time to explore in the evenings. Fatima is such a lovely, knowledgeable and fun guide. She is a local and gave some great recommendations for things to do and places to eat with the free time too. As Iglesias tours is based from Kusadasi and Pammukale, the tours in other cities were run by equally experienced local guides. All the tours were small group tours and avoided the sites at the busiest part of the day so we never felt the presence of the big bus and cruise ship crowds. The accomodation is all located in the heart of the city so you can make the most of your time there. All the hotels were clean, safe and comfortable. The food throughout was delicious and local. They were accomodating for those with dietary requirements. As with any booked tour there was one “hard sell” each day, but these were actually quite fun. Always a local craft that spent as much time in the showroom as they did explaining the craft. Some of them were quite interactive and I got to try making pottery in Cappadocia. The whole trip was amazing and I can’t wait to go back to Turkey. So many memories on this trip that i’ll never forget. Thank you! Note: Make sure you book the Hot Air Balloon in Cappadocia early. It was fully booked for 2 months ahead. The departure isn’t guaranteed. Civil aviation grounds the balloons based on wind and weather conditions.Show more
