I feel very lucky for the 9 days I spent on the tour. It couldn't have been better. The group was cheerful and friendly, the hotels were comfortable, the food was delicious. Ephesus, Kusadasi, Greek islands, Athens. We had a dream itinerary. The guides were chosen from the best people in the business. The drivers were punctual and reassuring drivers. I will definitely join other tours with Eskapas!

Choosing to visit both Greece and Turkey in the same tour wasn't a good idea for someone like me, a woman of a certain age. It was very tiring for me. I could barely rest at night. Next time I will choose a tour that includes fewer places. Eskapas Travel will still be my choice because they didn't make a single mistake during the tour.

This tour was far more high-quality and content-rich than most I've participated in before. It was wonderful to make new friends during the trip, and we plan to stay in touch with them even after returning to the US. That unexpected bonus was like the icing on the cake! A huge thank you to the tour operators, drivers, and guides for making this trip truly unforgettable. Looking forward to joining another tour with you next year!
