GAdventures made my visit to Türkiye so much fun. The itinerary and activities planned were all amazing! Our tour guide was A+ and was always accessible and knowledgeable about the history and culture of the country. I met some great people from other parts of the world as we traveled together. I highly recommend GAdventures for your next trip!

Fantastic in most respects but it is a lot of travelling and sometimes the balance between activity and travel felt too skewed to travel

Excellent tour, outstanding tour guide.

Overall this was a great experience, I very much enjoyed this trip and will plan to book with G Adventures again. For me the biggest things were the small group size, sense of wanting to work with local small businesses, and great pace to the trip overall. I cannot stress enough how great Tahsin was, he is undoubtedly 10/10 without question!
