It had some good highlights, and provided an efficient way to see some key locations. I was not impressed, however, with the request once the tour had commenced for participants to pay a specified cash amount in Euros. The machinations behind that are startlingly obvious. Suggestion: shift this from the small print and be more explicit about costings. The second criticism relates to marketing. For all intents and purposes, it was an eight day tour. A final positive comment: The hotels went well above my expectation.Show more

There were fabulous highlights but also serious disappointments on our tour. Definitely some improvements could be made. Firstly the demand for cash payments is inexcusable in this day and age. The cash payment requirement raised concerns for us . We felt the explanation provided did not align with our experience during the tour as the tour used a credit card for all but the caravanseri. The documentation referred only to payment in euros. Euro is a currency. Cash is a form of payment. It was horrendously expensive to have to convert the inflated amount to cash and this needs addressing urgently. Soured the whole experience. The hotels were only just okay and certainly not the advertised 4star. The food at the Cappadocia hotel was abysmal. Inedible, in fact. But the itenerary and the sights were fabulous and we loved the country and the places we visited. Our guide Gurkan had a great sense of humour and was always very cheerful. The bus was very comfortable and we were thankful for the charge points wifi and water provided.Show more
