The tour was very well managed. So it is not a group tour per se with the same group for 10 days, rather a day tour of each of the places and every day you meet with a new group with a new travel guide. You are assigned a local agent a day before your trip and he/she is the person who will coordinate everything for you. The pickup drop to the airport is arranged for you with a private car. I travelled solo and overall the tour was great, well managed, good guides with amazing knowledge of the places and most importantly safe for solo trip. Another advantage over other tours is that all entrance fees and internal flights were included in the price.Show more

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip. We travelled clockwise from Istanbul - Cappadocia - Antalya - Kusadesi back to Istanbul. Turkey is a beautiful and magical place. The Turkish people are delightful: charming and funny. The Byzantine and Ottoman Empires came alive during the tour. Ephesus, Hot air balloon (paid for separately), Topkapi Palace were some of the highlights. I had no problem finding delicious things to eat as a vegetarian. Ended up buying a kilim, loads of fruit teas and of course Turkish Delight! I'd go back in a heartbeat.Show more
