G Adventures exceeded my expectations. Absolute Turkey allowed me to experience the country's varied culture and geography from city to small village, from farmland to seacoast, from mosques to the underground cities, and much more. With an excellent tour guide and driver, I highly recommend this trip.
Noreen B | Traveled in March
This was my first G adventure tour.. I was very impressed by the tour leader, the variety of experiences offered, and the camaraderie among our group who were strangers at the start. Not sure I have ever felt so much ease while exploring a culture and its people. Kudos to G adventures for designing an A+ experience.
Jude W. | Traveled in March

This tour was absolutely incredible! Starting in Istanbul and traveling through Turkey’s most iconic spots, from Cappadocia’s landscapes to Ephesus and Troy. The blend of history, culture, and natural beauty kept me amazed every day. Mykonos and Santorini were, of course, highlights with their breathtaking views. The entire experience was well-organized, and we had enough free time to explore on our own. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to discover Turkey and Greece in depth!

This tour was an exceptional tour of an exceptional country. I loved every single moment of it from the wonderful breakfasts to the fabulous food throughout the day to the amazing sites that we saw in the myriad different areas of the country. As a lover of history and archaeology this tour exceeded my expectations, and I truly loved all the historical sites. I would recommend it to anyone and if there’s any way that they can get the wonderful leader Engin then I would recommend it even more so
