Fantastic Tour! Don't miss it. Tamara_D, Jun 2024 This was the best tour of our trip. The guide, Elif, went through strict processes to become a licensed guide. For example, they must travel for one month all throughout Turkey as well as classes and tests. She was knowledgeable and friendly and it felt like being taken around by a good friend. The tour was also very well organized. We were able to spend more or less time as desired, while relying on her expertise to get us everywhere. We never felt rushed or delayed. Always cold water and an air conditioned vehicle waiting for us at each stop. The sites were amazing and the lunch spot was good. Highly recommend this tour especially if you can go with Elif!
Our tour was excellent! We learned so about Turkey , the culture, the food, and Tolga, our guide, EXCELLENT!!! Highly recommended him!!!
What to know
Really easy, enjoyable, well handled trip for our group. The guides English is excellent, he’s hugely entertaining and knowledgeable. Manages to keep everything interesting by blending stories, with jokes and facts. So very knowledgeable in terms of his history, but also managed to keep everything light in feel. Our group had a had a couple of specific requirements and the operator stayed flexible to that. Hugely appreciated. Thank you.
