As described, the itinerary was amazingly planned (only conveniently twisted if the travellers arrival flights to Turkey are not as per the plan to accommodate the day). Hotel stays were up to the mark, safe and at prime locations. Individual Tour guides were humble knowledgeable and friendly, assuring the safety of travellers. Included lunches were hosted nicely. Vegetarian options were available (vegan can manage). Only the point to be noted is that the schedule could be hectic if not prepared for the 3 early morning flights and balloon ride (optional) within 8 days tour.

My husband and I enjoyed our trip immensely. We're amazed about Turkey and we learned more about its history. Turkey is such a beautiful country. The food was great too. What made our trip a great one was because of the tireless effort and fantastic company throughout by Fatma in Ephesus and Pamukale; the perfect trip schedule and itinerary arranged by Ismael and the indefatigable help by Zeki in Cappadocia. Indeed our trip was memorable.

One of the best tours we joined! If you have questions email or WhatsApp them you’ll get your reply in a flash! I wonder if they still sleep? All the tour escorts and drivers are kind and courteous! The hotels we stayed in are all clean, and in the Center of all the tourists must see. We fell in love with Istanbul, it’s people, the sights especially the Hotair Balloon ride in Cappadocia and the Food!!!!! Istanbul is a haven for sweet lovers like me, Baklavas, Turkish Delights, and my favourite chicken breast dessert! This tour gave us a lot of free time to explore and we had a chance to try all their yummy foods! I have recommended them to my friends and will continue to recommend them. We will be back this coming September! See you soon Fatima and the team! Continue what you’re doing, you’re making a lot of people happy❤️❤️❤️ God bless

We had a great time with Best of Turkey package. Ishmail and Fatima are so sweet and so accomodating to all my inquiries. One good thing about them is they answer right away. Will definitely recommend them. Hope they will offer tour to some parts of Europe too, will definitely join them again! Thanks and best regards to the couple. Much love to you both from my family.❤
