Can I purchase the tour then add the flights & hot air ride on a later date?

Definitely, you may add the hot air balloon ride on at a later date, provided that there are availabilities. Regarding the flights, these would need to be added on a maximum of 3 days after your booking has been completed.

What are the preferred domestic Turkish flights? Do they go from IST to NAV or ASR on 14SEP and then there is only 1 from ASR-ADB on 16SEP, also ADB-IST on 18SEP?

The preferred domestic flight is IST-ASR - TK2010 - 06:30 / 07:55 (timing may vary but around the same time frame) on Day 1. ASR-ADB preferred flight on September 16th is XQ9039 - SunExpress Airlines taking off at 08:25 AM. ADB-IST is at your own discretion.

Is the quoted price include all cost? If not, what is tge cost including all flight and hotel accomidation?

The total price including domestic flight tickets and all accommodation would be US$4,368.00.

What time do I return to Istanbul? How does it work? Do I fly alone or with a guide and other people in a group?

The domestic flights are not included in the tour by default. However, in this package, we recommend an evening flight out of Izmir (can be booked at your own discretion or you may book the one we recommend after booking) and we conduct your transfer to the airport in Izmir for your flight to Istanbul.

What is the approx.cost of the flights for this trip per person

The cost of domestic flights are 390 USD / Per Person. You may add them on at the "Add Extras" section while booking.

Is it possible not to take the flight back to Istanbul on 9 September? I would just like to end the tour at the airport in IZMIR. After the final days tour.

That is certainly possible, we could end your tour at Izmir Airport.

how much is all the entrance fee that I have to pay?

Below, you may find a complete list of the entrance fees required to visit all sites. Please note that the prices listed are per person and are current prices, they may be subject to changes. Ephesus Ancient Site: 45 € EUR. House of Virgin Mary: 20 € EUR. Pamukkale & Hierapolis: 35 € EUR. Goreme Museum: 25 € EUR. Underground City: 18 € EUR. Zelve & Pasabag Valley: 17 € EUR.

I'm trying to determine if this tour will work with my other flights.

The flight would have taken off by then, the flights we book for usually take off at around 5-6 AM. The return flight would not be a problem, but the departure flight may not work with your current flight.

Do you have Istanbul, Pamukelle, Ephesus, Cappadosia 8 day tour?
