Guest reviews from travelers on Cultural, religious and historic sites tours in and around Ankara
Summer | Traveled in April
We had an absolute blast on this tour. Some of the days are long driving days, but we didn't mind, plenty of comfort stops to break it up. This tour was well organised and informative. The cave hotel is a really cool experience. The highlight of our tour was Ege, he was the most kind, considerate and passionate tour guide. You can really see how much he loves his country. He took time to get to know everybody and cared about everybody. He went out of his way to sort things out for people in his free time.
Naveenkumar Narayanan | Traveled in April
Thank you very much for creating such a fantastic and unforgettable experience for us in Turkey. The companionship and guidance from the operators truly made a difference. They were not just great guides but made us feel like family. Thank you both again. 👍👍
Miket | Traveled in November
We spent three days with them, two in Istanbul and one in Ephesus. The organizer was great to work with. We had a couple of last-minute changes in plans and he was flexible and fair in accommodating our last minute needs. The guides in Istanbul and Ephesus were great. Both were well-informed and personable. We will be happy to use them again on our next visit to Turkey!
Vikas Kantharaju | Traveled in October
We surly had wonderful and a memorable vacation. We had opted 12N-13D private tailor made trip. The team was very responsive and never disappointed us at any point of the vacation. We were really relaxed and never felt tired during the entire trip. The team took immediate action when our plans changed and we really appreciate it. I will sure recommend this agency to all our friends and relatives.

The pre tour suggestions were very professional. The pre tour detailing by Mr Ege, the Tour leader the night before the tour was clear and informative. He assured vegetarians and vegans would not have issues.He gave details the day before and posted on the FB page.He looked after the group like a Anatolian Shepherd dog! He gave suggestions what food to try and where to visit.He gave options as where it was safe to draw money from the ATM.The coach was comfortable, good seats with ample leg room, Mr Curly, the man behind the wheel did an excellent job maneuvering the coach through the crazy traffic.His role was exemplary and kept smiling . The hotels and food were nice.A brief history was given, the drive was punctuated with pit stops to allow stretching and comfort stations.
