Pamukkale Walking Trips

Sedef and her team did an amazing job organizing our 8 day tour. From the time of booking to our very last flight, there was great communication via WhatsApp and everything ran smoothly. Reza, Emre, and Hatti are absolutely wonderful tour guidesƒgreat English, full of passion, and very accommodating. The tours do involve a lot of walking but even in July heat, it was not too rigorous. The tour guides made sure to find shady spots for us and lots of water breaks. Meals provided during lunch were delicious. The shuttles vans that took us around were very comfortable and had outlets and ac. We choose to pay extra for the hot air balloon ride on Capadocia and it was fantastic. Sedef made arrangements and a local company picked us up from our hotel room at 4 am. The driver had nice goody bags filled with fruit, snacks, and water. After the hot ballon ride, the pilots and their crew all served non alcoholic champagne in honor of the soft landing. Totally great touch. We got back to our cave hotel by 7 am, which gave us time to take a quick nap and breakfast before our next tour. This was honesty a great tour of the high lights of Turkey. Small group, we loved our guides, and made friends with fellow tourists. Thank you again Tour Altinkum and special shout out to Sedef for going above and beyond.

Highly recommended this tour agent. Did the Istanbul-Pammukale-Ephesus-Cappadocia tour and it was great! Tour booking process was easy/simple. Very clear itinerary. Pick up time was on point. Comfortable shuttles with AC. Communication with the agent was amazing!- available via WhatsApp throughout and they'd update you daily with the next day's itinerary. Tour guides were amazing! Very knowledgeable. They would also give advice on where to take the best photos + where to get the best deals for goods/gifts. Toured various local businesses daily (not part of the itinerary but a free complimentary tour when time allowed) and they all sold very nice, affordable items! Did the trip solo but made friends along the way- with other tourists doing the same tour on that day. Hotels were good with good breakfast options (although if you are lactose intolerance or celiac, options might be limited). Lunch was mainly buffet style- good range of options. Desserts were amazing! Really enjoyed my trip!

enjoyed a lot the Turkish Breeze Tour... and Tour Altinkum made my trip amazing, tour was very well organized, very responsive staff. Tours were punctual and tour guides were amazing specially : Hussien at Cappadocia, and Riza at Ephesus Ruins. Cant wait for my next trip to Turkey

Tour was very well organized and executed, Kerem and Sevde were very responsive and wonderful to work with. Incredibly easy to book. We really appreciated the daily WhatsApp update once the tour started, reminding us of the next day schedule with link to tickets. Airport pick up and drop off worked very well. The tour in essence preserves the independent traveler freedom / feel for us, while taking care of the local logistics. All local tours were small groups, around 10 or less in a comfortable van. Cappadocia tour guides were both fantastic, which together with hot air balloon ride were the high lights of this tour. Ephesus was interesting. I had high hopes for pamukkale but the day was brutally hot, the terrace pool was not shaded, and we only had a couple of hours there in early afternoon during the hottest part of the day. On retrospect, we should probably have stayed overnight there. Istanbul is beyond words, be prepared for culture shock. full-day tour guide, Ali, was awesome, a great story teller that brings things alive for us. All breakfast at hotels were good. Hotels are clean, well located, and each unique in their own way. A la Cart lunch were high quality, we are not fans of buffet lunches but selections were large. I was concerned about turkey domestic flights which turned out to be unnecessary, as three domestic flights were comfortable, and largely on time. IIm glad we chose to fly instead of long distance bus. There was a minor hiccup for the last day hotel, which was caught and fixed by Sevde, before it became a problem.

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 (:

Our visit was unforgettable! Our tour guide was Yavuz and he offered services in Spanish and it was exceptional. Very informative, interactive and inclusive. Also, we were given small breaks to engage more with the Turkish culture and everything was amazing. I would 100% recommend this tour!
