The itinerary covered so many impressive spots, and it was even better experiencing it all with such a friendly group. Pamukkale and Mykonos were definitely highlights. Pamukkale's unique landscape was unlike anything I'd seen, and Mykonos had that perfect island vibe. The cruise portion was also a standout, giving a unique view of the Greek islands while offering a bit of relaxation between stops. If you’re considering this tour, I’d recommend bringing comfortable walking shoes and a light jacket for cooler nights on the water. Overall, a well-rounded experience.Show more

As a solo traveler on this tour, I found the group dynamic to be engaging without feeling overwhelming. Our guides were very well-versed in both local history and cultural insights, making each stop even more interesting. The timing for each activity was well-managed, keeping the pace steady but not rushed. The hotels were comfortable and ideally located, making it easy to explore a bit during free time.Show more

This was my first European tour, and I feel like I got to experience the best parts of both Turkey and Greece. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, and everything went smoothly as scheduled. The hotels in Turkey were notably more modern and comfortable. I was initially unsure about the cruise portion, thinking three days on board might get boring, but it ended up being the highlight of the trip, I was probably one of the most entertained people there. The food was above average, and I especially enjoyed trying Turkish raki and Greek ouzo. Overall, I’d recommend this tour to anyone interested in exploring these beautiful countries.Show more
