It was great to experience so many varied and different things, from ancient cities to hot air balloon rides to hammam treatments. We were busy but also had some free time. Mustafa was the perfect tour leader, a perfectionist yet approachable
Long bus journey but worth it. Major sights visited in Istanbul city.
Gallipolli and Troy well worth visit,very interesting,hard to imagine human cost of war.Trenches still visable. Lots of archaeology at Troy and replica of wooden horse to go in. Good photo opportunities. Ephesus with ancient streets,roman toilets,columns,mosaics and carving of menorah. Amazing amphitheatre at Parmakeele,The Thermal Springs. Lots of people but lots of space. White rocks fab,water not warm,skin felt refreshed after dip. Hotels used were high quality. Breakfasts delicious. Time to visit museum shops and time for coffee break.

The itinerary was spot on, giving us the chance to see the best of Turkey. Our guide, Mehmet, was really knowledgeable and engaging, while Ahmet, our driver, was always reliable. The hotels were very comfortable, and the traditional Turkish meals were a treat. I'd highly recommend Eskapas Travel!

Excellent trip. Excellent knowledge from Sukran. Only reason for 4 stars is because there was a bit of
repetition of information and some of the panoramic views seemed unnecessary. Very good care taken
of use and amazing cave hotel. Memories to last a lifetime. Thank you.
