I highly recommend GAdventures for your next trip!
The Solo-ish Trip was exactly what I needed -- we ended up being a diverse group of like-minded travellers and with our tour guide's leadership, we experienced Turkey in what I can only describe as "grown up summer camp." We learned, and we laughed. I can't wait to book my next Solo-ish Trip.
