Very comprehensive coverage of the highlights of Türkiye if you only have a week to spare. The guides were knowledgeable and provided good service. Despite the busy schedule especially when transits to airports are involved, the team made sure to provide information and directions in advance. Transfers were seamless and worry-free. Would greatly recommend! Kudos to Meriç, Sedef for their remarkable assistance before and during the tour.Show more
