What people love about Fully Guided Tours in Turkey
- Absolutely Turkey (Small Group)
An excellent way to see the highlights of Turkey for those short on time. You'll see many cultural and historical sites as well as get all those Instagram shots (if that's your thing). Enquire about upgrading to the cave hotel in Cappadocia - it's an absolutely must-have experience. Breakfast and dinners are included however I would recommend getting out of the hotel in Capadoccia making your way into Urgup and the waterfront in Izmir where there are an abundance of small eateries (Sofra was amazing) to try authentic local cuisine. Our guide Nadir made this trip - there wasn't a single question he couldn't answer (and we tried!). He genuinely cares about his guests and goes out of his way to make the trip perfect - when our hot air balloon ride was cancelled on the first day, he woke up early to accompany us on the second day and would probably have blown the balloon up himself to get us the experience we were there for. Our driver Dursun was lovely and took so much pride in providing a safe and clean journey. The days are long because there is so much ground to cover, but I would highly recommend the trip to anyone looking for a fuss-free way to see the highlights of this beautiful country. Pack a few extra lira for taxis to get out and about during free time if you want to see a bit more of the overnight towns.

What our customers ask about Turkey Guided Tours & Trips
What is the best time of year to take a fully guided tour in Turkey?
The sweet spots for touring Turkey fall in spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) when temperatures hover between 20-25°C (68-77°F). These months provide comfortable conditions for exploring Istanbul's historic sites and walking through Cappadocia's valleys. TourRadar's booking data shows these periods are the most popular with travelers leading to increased tour departures.
What level of accommodation can I expect on a fully guided tour in Turkey?
Four-star and boutique hotels form the backbone of Turkey's guided tour accommodations. Properties like the Recital Hotel in Istanbul's Sultanahmet district put travelers in the heart of the action while cave hotels such as Arte Cave and Under Cave in Cappadocia offer distinct regional character. Guest reviews consistently highlight the comfort cleanliness and authentic atmosphere of these carefully selected properties.
Are meals and accommodations typically included on fully guided tours in Turkey?
Standard tour packages cover daily hotel breakfasts and many lunches during sightseeing excursions. An 8-day itinerary typically includes 7 breakfasts and 6 lunches at local restaurants chosen for their authentic cuisine. Accommodations range from seaside stays at the Charisma De Luxe Hotel in Kusadasi to distinctive cave hotels in Cappadocia all included in the base tour price.
What is typically included in a fully guided tour package in Turkey?
Tour packages bundle 4-5 star hotels domestic flights between cities air-conditioned transportation entrance fees and professional English-speaking guides. Stays at properties like the Nidya Hotel and GalC Cave Hotel plus most meals come standard. Packages run 7-15 days with prices from $1500-3500 depending on duration and included features. Airport transfers round out the comprehensive offerings that eliminate planning hassles.
How much free time is typically available during fully guided tours in Turkey?
The schedules mix guided activities with independent exploration particularly in major cities. Istanbul itineraries often leave evenings and occasional half-days open while destinations like Cappadocia balance morning tours with free afternoons. Central locations such as the Pam Thermal Hotel in Pamukkale and Richmond Hotel in Kusadasi make it simple to explore during downtime or join optional excursions like hot air balloon rides.
What is the typical group size for fully guided tours in Turkey?
Tours operate with 8 to 24 participants striking a balance between intimacy and social interaction. Companies like Eskapas use 34-seat coaches for groups of 24 or fewer ensuring space and comfort. The modest size allows smooth transitions between sites like the Blue Mosque and Ephesus while maintaining clear communication between guides and group members at archaeological sites and museums.
