Turkey in Depth - July 2026

This was a brilliant tour with a comprehensive itinerary. It appealed to me and my husband for the historical content and our guide Oz was very helpful and knowledgeable with this. There are some long days of travel but the scenery is always interesting and they were well broken up with breaks. We felt completely confidant with both Oz for organisational aspects and our driver Omar who was excellent, driving safely and always cheerful and smiling. The accommodation was comfortable and generally teh food good. The final plus was the lovely group of people on this tour.
