Istanbul Art and architecture Tour Reviews
Guest reviews from travelers on Art and architecture tours in and around Istanbul
Chastity R | Traveled in April
For my fist group tour, Flavia and Gadventures hit it out of the park. I’ll likely be disappointed if I do another as this one was so great. Love supporting locals and hearing all the history of the places visited. And it was so wonderful having it all planned out and not stressing about transport and itinerary.
Neelofar B | Traveled in March
I have been dreaming of traveling to Turkey for a long time. I had initially booked this tour in 2020 and clearly it had to be cancelled. Five years later, my expectations were exceeded by this tour. The rich history, culture, the food and the beautiful people of Turkey— this is a trip not to be missed!
Daniel R | Traveled in March
This was my favorite trip yet. Due to the group, CEO and rich history of all the places visited I cannot recommend this trip enough. Have no regrets in booking this trip and would have no issues recommending.
Addy | Traveled in September
Absolutely phenomenal trip. The itinerary, views, experiences, tour guide were incredible! Getting to know others on the tour was also so much fun! I had only solo travelled prior to this, so making friends (for the moment and for long-term) was an unexpected gift!
Rachel | Traveled in June
Great trip, really interesting to see the ancient sights. Great to experience the culture of Turkey and have time to relax and jump into the Aegean alongside the history. The CEO was excellent with great knowledge, enthusiasm and experience - Ephesus barely had other people in!
Victoria | Traveled in April
I loved my first trip with them and hope it won't be my last. As a solo female traveller, the world can seem a daunting place, but I was made to feel very welcome by my group and it felt safe and fun to travel with company. Thank you so much! You have created a really beautiful tour and I've seen and experienced so much!
