      Traveler•Written September 2026

      Also is the flight in Turkey already included in the price?

    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written September 2026

      Unfortunately, we do not provide international flight services, so you will need to arrange your international flights independently.

      Once you arrive in Istanbul, our driver will greet you at the airport and transfer you to your Istanbul hotel. Please note that the first and last days of the package are arrival and departure transfer days, so there are no scheduled tours on those days. And land trasnportation are included during the tour.

      Regarding accommodation, of course, you will have one double room for two people in each city throughout the package.

      Please note that domestic flights are not included in the room/package price. After selecting your preferred room option on the booking page, you can add the required domestic flight tickets from the Extra Add-ons section under the room selection.

      Rose

      Traveler•Written September 2026

      What is the cuisine, weather, and safety level for US female travels in Turkey? What is the rough cost outside of the trip price and flights (for meals not covered and such)? if we pay for 2 adults for the domestic mid trip flight, will the tour guide/company arrange all of the airport logistics and transportation/support us with that such as helping us with our 2 suitcases and such?

    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written September 2026

      For your selected date, the current total is USD 1,577.46 for 2 people with Silver Package accommodation, including the domestic flights.

      Regarding additional expenses, dinners and admission fees are not included in the package price. You should also budget for beverages, personal expenses, and any optional activities.

      The current admission fees are approximately:

      Admission Fees (per person):

      Topkapı Palace: €60
      Hagia Sophia: €35
      Ephesus Ancient Site: €45
      House of the Virgin Mary: €20
      Pamukkale & Hierapolis: €35

      Total: approximately €195 / 224 USD per person. Note: The tour guide will have pre paid skip the line tickets to avoid long ticket queues. The cost of used entry tickets can be paid to your guide in cash dolar, euro or turkish lira at tours.

      Regarding food, Turkish cuisine offers a wide variety of options, including grilled meats, kebabs, vegetables, salads, rice dishes, soups, seafood, and vegetarian options, so you should have plenty of choices throughout your trip.

      Turkey is generally a safe destination for female travelers, especially in the main tourist destinations included in our itinerary. As with any country, we recommend taking normal travel precautions when exploring independently and keeping an eye on personal belongings.

      Regarding the domestic flights, if you add the flight service to your reservation, we will arrange the required domestic flight tickets and all airport transfers included in the package. Transportation during the tours and transfers between your hotels and airports will be arranged by our team. Our team will contact you everyday through whatsup for the next day schedules during your trip.

      Our package tours are operated in small groups, generally with a maximum of approximately 14–15 people. There is no assistant service at the airport, the driver will drop you off in front of the airport gate . and also driver will be greeting you at the airport . Your guide will not travel with you, you will have different guide in each region.

      Traveler•Written September 2026

      Is there any way to pay entry fees of optional sites in advance? Also can we have it guaranteed all our luggage will be able to come with us for domestic flight?

    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written September 2026

      The admission fees should be paid directly to your tour guide in cash each day, according to the museums and sites you will visit. You may pay the admission fees in USD or EUR.
      Regarding your luggage, the standard allowance for the domestic flights is 15 kg of checked baggage + 8 kg of carry-on baggage per person.
      If you require additional baggage allowance, you will be able to purchase extra baggage online, including during the online check-in process. We recommend adding any extra baggage online rather than at the airport, as it is generally more economical.

    • R

      Traveler•Written September 2026

      In the moment if needed would I be able to purchase the ability for more luggage in the domestic flight if needed? will there also be the opportunity for consistent bathroom breaks throughout the trip as well as morning coffee access?

    Asked on May 23rd, 2025

    Can you move the itinerary on day 5 to day 3? Can you transfer us to Cesme instead? We already have 2 nights hotel reservations in Istanbul, how does this affect the price of the tour? Can we deduct those 2 nights from the price of the tour or change what it's worth for something else?

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written May 2025

      Transfer from Denizli to Çeşme is a private transfer with a Vito vehicle for $300 USD. We can deduct 2 nights of Istanbul accommodation from the package (2 rooms x $90/night = $360 USD). Adding the Çeşme transfer ($300 USD) results in a net deduction of $60 USD.

      Justin

      Traveler•Written May 2025

      The hotel we have booked is in Sultanahmet. I agree to the deduction and the extra fee for our transfer from Cesme and the transfers in Cappadocia.

    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written May 2025

      Since your hotel is located in Sultanahmet Square, that's perfect. You may book the tour. Optional extras can be added to your account through TourRadar, which you can pay by credit card via their secure system.
