Wow to Turkey. So many things to say. Stunning landscapes, amazing cities, beautiful beaches, delicious meals and soooo much incredible history. Everything is also very affordable even with the very low Australian dollar right now. Best of all is the people, they are all full of personality, jokes and kindness. As a solo female traveler, no one hassled me (although I'm in my 50's) and I never felt unsafe at any time.

From Athens’ ancient marvels to the mystical monasteries of Meteora, the "Best Of Greece" tour is a relaxed, five-day odyssey designed for seniors who cherish comfort and classic sightseeing.

The unique selling point: an expertly guided introduction to Greece’s most iconic monuments, blending the nation’s historical significance with serene landscapes.
Mykonos and Santorini were beyond beautiful! I was impressed by how smooth everything went from start to finish. The tour was well-paced, and we got to see so much without feeling rushed.
We saw 16 cities that had a lot of history and beauty. Loved the archeological sites of Ephesus and the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia. Our tour director had outstanding knowledge of Turkey and provided continuous commentary over 2 weeks. I would highly recommend this vacation.

Nebil was a great guide to the paths and routes that we took. Great group of fellow-walkers, dined together every night. Walks were mixed with additional local information. Meals with local residents was great, particularly the one on New Year’s Eve, with a perfect sunset.
Accommodation was good but felt some of us missed out with basic rooms while others (mostly singles) had a sofa and /or a jaccuzzi while those sharing had neither so very little space.

A great week of walking with some challenges underfoot. Beautiful coastal views at times. Nebil was a consummate leader with great interpersonal skills, a good sense of humour and top notch care for his flock!
P.S. Excellent Mediterranean food on the way!

Chania was probably my favorite spot, especially with how laid-back it felt. The ferry rides were actually really fun. I spent most of the time just watching the water and the dolphins.
More time is needed in Acropolis Delphi and Dion,
the museum of the Acropolis was not on the itinerary which is a shame
especially that there was not free time to see it by ourself
