Had a great time on this tour. Best bits were all outside Istanbul. The capital apart from its geographical location, was less wow than expected. Gallipoli, Troya, Ephesus, Pamukkale and especially Cappadochia were superb. Guide, Ege, knowledgable and helpful. Transport comfortable. Some hotels better than others - smaller one definately better. Too improve suggest less time in ruins of chuches as frescoes very poor.Show more

I would highly recommend this tour. There were only two of us on this tour which enabled us to spend us much time as we wanted at each site. Our guide Can Kurtulay provided us with in depth information about the history of the sites that we visited and was well organised and very helpful and friendly. Our driver Sadik also provided excellent service. The itinerary was well planned and provided a variety of memorable highlights. Overall, it was a wonderful trip.Show more
