Candace | Traveled in October
It was FANTASTIC! The itinerary was a great mix of sights, activities, experiences. There was nothing I didn?t thoroughly enjoy. I also appreciated that the pottery and rugs were very educational with no pressure to buy. The smaller group size was nice and Orcun was amazing! Also I liked all the food experiences we had, everything was delicious!
Thomas | Traveled in October
This tour covers many of the highlights of Turkey and was a wonderful experience. Since there is only one included day in Istanbul I would recommend flying in a few days earlier and exploring Istanbul on your own before the tour begins - the city is twice the size of NYC and has a lot to offer. This is not difficult to do since the city is safe and has an excellent public transit system. This tour is then a fantastic way to see other portions of Turkey.
Anne | Traveled in October
Fabulous experience. I experienced foods beyond what I would likely discover on my own. A wonderful mix of history, experiences, and our CEO , Orcun, was wonderful. Funny, kind , enthusiastic about his country and the history. An amazing trip! Thanks!

100% recommend this trip to everyone, everything was perfect! Not only was our tour guide, Mr. Morgul very kind and helpful but he was also very knowledgeable in guiding us through the 7 congregations. The drivers were also very kind. We got to do and see everything within the 7 congregations in only 3 days!! The lunch provided was delicious and the guides were very accommodating and informative with additional activities for us to do which made our trip much more fun and enjoyable. A highlight for me was visiting the thermals in Pamukkale! This trip was very carefully planned and definitely a memorable experience me and my family will never forget. IIm so very thankful, it was a lovely experience (:
