Carmen
Asked on January 8th, 2025Is the flight from izmir to Istanbul at the end included? Just clarifying the wording. Of onward flight vs outbound flight. I assume the outbound flight refers to the flight leaving Istanbul
EskapasOperator•Written January 2025Domestic flight Izmir to Istanbul is not included. Its cost is 75USD per person. We are adding this in case our customers prefer us to book it when they have extensions in Istanbul. Most of them they issue their international flights from Izmir. In that case the leg price ADB-ISD (Izmir-Istanbul is almost 1/3 of this price). If you let me know the travel date and will you be travelling solo etc. I may quote it accordingly.

Asked on August 3rd, 2023Can you advise how strenuous the excursions/tours are? Will be booking with another solo traveller, would it be possible for them to have separate rooms close to each other for the duration of the tour?
- EskapasOperator•Written August 2023
The day excursions require to walk slowly 1-2 miles a day. If you have a friend that purchase the same tour for the same period we will can give side by side rooms. It is easy.

Asked on December 23rd, 2022Is any domestic flight necessary for this tour that is not included on the package? Or flight between Turkey or Greece?

Asked on December 22nd, 2022Is there single supplement?
- EskapasOperator•Written December 2022
Unfortunately solo travelers pay a single supplement and we are not able to match two solos in a double room since pandemic.

Asked on November 20th, 2022Can I request to have my own room I'm doing solo
- EskapasOperator•Written November 2022
Since pandemic we don't match two solos in one room dur to regulations. However it creates a single supplement. I am now adjusting your departure to May 6th 2023 for a single solo traveler. Let me know if you want to add great options such as External Cabin Upgrade 230 USD, Cave Hotel Upgrade in Cappadocia starting from 200USD, Balloon ride over Cappadocia 240 USD, Pre or post accommodations

Asked on May 29th, 2022Will I need to apply for a Schengen visa to enter Athens? I am an American citizen residing in Thailand.
- EskapasOperator•Written May 2022
As a US citizen you are required to obtain an e-visa via (15 minutes) at the governement web page evisa.gov.tr. To Greece until 90 days you don't need a visa. Our Athens hotels are in the city center and very close the hop-on / hop-off buses station as well as subway.

Asked on May 26th, 2022Do you suggest any vaccinations besides Covid for Turkey, Morroco and the Greek islands?
- EskapasOperator•Written May 2022
You mentioned Morocco but it is not included in this trip. Only Turkey and Greece and Greek Islands as well. And you don't need other than Covid vaccine card. In case you don't have it you can also give a PCR test (negative). Latest restrictions can be found at related government web pages. Both countries health standards are OK.

Asked on February 14th, 2022Is it possible to stay in one room...two adults and our two children?
- A
Audrey
Traveler•Written February 2022The children at 12 and 15 years
- EskapasOperator•Written February 2022
In some hotels there are family rooms that can accommodate 5-6 people. They are usually more expensive comparing to 2 double rooms side by side as they have also a common living rooms like suite rooms. In the cruise ship I can provide a 4 people berth (bunk beds) with no price increase. We are always providing the rooms side by side for the families. Unfortunately children over 12 years old are considered as adult so the premiums calculated are based also on adult prices.

Audrey
Traveler•Written February 2022What is your tour company doing to assist travelers that need to have COVID tests before their return flights home?
- EskapasOperator•Written February 2022
Our guides in both countries are helping to our customers to take their test in the right time during the trip. For instance, before Celestyal cruise and your home flight you will be required to take your PCR tests. Our guides all know where and how to do it.
