I had long plans to visit the Black Sea region of Turkey. During my travel arrangements, I came across Northa Travel on the Internet. My decision to contact this agency was very good. From the first moment there was a reliable communication. I was offered an extensive offer for a 5-day tour at a reasonable price. It led from Trabzon on the Firtina Valley, Ayder and Artvin to Şavşat. This region is scenically very impressive. The chosen accommodations were very good. The guide Alican is extremely attentive, friendly and reliable. He pays attention to the needs of his clients and allows them a journey with unforgettable impressions. Among my more than a dozen visits to various parts of Turkey, this tour is an absolute highlight. I absolutely recommend this agency and this guide.Show more
