Turkey Tours and Trips

This hiking tour was excellent, with a great mix of beautiful coastal scenery, mountain views, and fascinating historical sites along the route. Every day seemed to offer something different, whether it was a dramatic stretch of coastline, ancient ruins, or a traditional village. A big part of what made the trip so enjoyable was our guide, Alper. He was not only extremely knowledgeable about the hiking and logistics, but also provided historical and cultural context throughout the trip. In fact, I learned more from him about the region's history and culture than I have from many guides on tours that were specifically focused on those subjects. The final day was a perfect way to end the trip. We took a boat excursion to Kekova and the sunken city, with time to explore the beautiful village of Simena, which was one of the surprises of the trip for me. The swimming stops were wonderful, the lunch on board was delicious, and the scenery was spectacular. The trip concluded with an incredible home-cooked dinner prepared by Alper's wife, which felt like a very special and personal touch. Finally, we were fortunate to have a fantastic group of fellow travelers. Everyone got along well, and the camaraderie added a lot to the overall experience. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a combination of excellent hiking, history, culture, and beautiful scenery.

It was a good look around Turkey. We traveled many miles, hence early starts, but that's to be expected. Did not like the Whirling Derb..... ! Could not understand a thing. Very boring.

It was well organized. The tour director and driver were excellent. The meals and restaurants included in the package were good. However, the rest stop meal options and taste were ordinary.

A fabulous holiday, all round. Our guide Necip was knowledgeable and able to alter our walks dependant on the weather. The group I was with was small and every day I enjoyed the walking, terrain, views, food and company.

This trip was awesome, hard yakka but our leader Emre and the great local organisation made it a faultless trip. The dry humour of the Turks was evident and the hotels/food/weather exceeded expectations. Definitely do this trip

We were a small group of 6, lovely people who helped make this a great holiday - along with our wonderful guide Alkan and our driver Ugur. We packed a lot into our 6 full days - tours around Istanbul and Antalya plus visits to fabulous ancient sites such as Troy, Ephesus, Hierapolis and the ancient city of Perge and wandering around the back streets of pretty towns. Plenty of time to explore .
