The tour was great. Our guide Nadir was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The team was flexible and accommodating throughout the tour. Before booking, you should know that since they organize tours of different lengths from different sites, it will be easy for them to extend your stay if you want. The only downside was that on my trip the tour started and stopped on different days for different people. The hotels were good but not what you would expect from a 5 star hotel. Even so, I fully recommend this tour.
GAdventures made my visit to Türkiye so much fun. The itinerary and activities planned were all amazing! Our tour guide was A+ and was always accessible and knowledgeable about the history and culture of the country. I met some great people from other parts of the world as we traveled together. I highly recommend GAdventures for your next trip!
