Benjamin M | Traveled in March

5.0 - Excellent

Excellent

Overall this was a great experience, I very much enjoyed this trip and will plan to book with G Adventures again. For me the biggest things were the small group size, sense of wanting to work with local small businesses, and great pace to the trip overall. I cannot stress enough how great Tahsin was, he is undoubtedly 10/10 without question!

My #1 bucket list item was awesome. Felix (tour manager) was great, the animal sightings were awesome, the culture events were awesome, the food left a little to be desired, as did the accommodations (but we had three tented places to be fair)

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.
