This tour gave me countless unforgettable memories, but the most special moment for me was the sunrise hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia. Floating above those unique valleys felt like a dream. Since returning to the U.S., I’ve recommended this tour to everyone I know. Huge thanks to Eskapas for their effort and warm smiles throughout, ensuring everything ran smoothly.
The tour was top quality. Every detail was thought out in advance, with careful planning you could really feel. The staff were responsible and clearly loved their work—it showed. We especially connected with our guide, Mehmet, who had both a strong grasp of history and a great sense of humor that brought positive energy to the group. Visiting the Mausoleum of Ataturk was an especially powerful moment, with Mehmet delivering an emotional and impactful explanation. As a history enthusiast, I was truly moved by the historical sites like Troy and Canakkale. Beyond that, the hotels and food were excellent, adding to a thoroughly memorable experience.
Every detail, from timing to location choices, was set up so we could experience Greece and Turkey beyond the postcard moments.
I found unique items in both countries and tried some unforgettable street food. The guide Ozgır was kind and knowledagble.
It's been a long time since I’ve been on a tour as seamless and refreshing as this one. I really needed this break, and I was so pleased that it met my expectations perfectly. In a word—wonderful.
As the tour name suggests, this journey captured the most remarkable sites of two exceptional countries. Each city we visited in Turkey had its own unique character, and it's a country overflowing with historical and natural beauty at every turn. Greece, too, is just as special, with Mykonos feeling like a true paradise getaway. The cruise days were definitely my personal highlight, adding a wonderful touch to the experience. A big thank you to Eskapas for handling all the organization flawlessly.
This tour is perfect for anyone who wants a bit of everything: history, culture, relaxation, and amazing food. I appreciated the pace, as there was enough time to visit major landmarks without feeling rushed. The guides and drivers made sure everything went according to plan and that we had all the support we needed. By the end of the tour, I felt I’d experienced the best of both countries and am already considering returning in the future.
Experiencing Pamukkale and Cappadocia was like stepping into another world. The unique rock formations and hot springs of Pamukkale, combined with Cappadocia’s fairy chimneys and vast open landscapes, made each stop feel surreal. Greece added a whole other layer with its incredible music and delicious dishes—I couldn’t get enough of the traditional flavors. As for Athens, it stood out as my favorite city. There’s something magical about being surrounded by so much history and culture. Thanks to the team for this unforgettable journey.
There are so many positives to mention about this tour, but for me, the itinerary tops the list. Exploring these beautiful, almost paradise-like places felt rejuvenating, making it as relaxing as it was enriching.
A heartfelt thank you for a well-organized, memorable tour. Each stop was thoughtfully planned, and I felt cared for every step of the way. Truly grateful for this wonderful experience!
