    The tour was all wished for. We were escorted professionally around some of the most remarkable places in western Turkey. The guides were excellent and we saw everything that was promised. The vehicles were good condition and the small group size excellent. We enjoyed the lunches. We would have given 5 star, but for a couple of issues. One night we were bumped to a lesser quality hotel. Also each day there were unexpected visits to commercial establishments which wanted us to buy goods. This was distasteful and disrespectful, we would have preferred to spend time in other ways. Also, the tour ended late causing us problems with our connection. I understand that this can occur but we were told information which was wrong to appease us. Honest information would have been more helpful. These issues aside, we had a great time and would recommend the tour.

    Nicely organized trip. All was on schedule, all transfers and hotels were great! I would suggest to put a little attention to the menu of provided meals - in our case we had mixed grill and lentil soup twice a day for 3 days - would be nice to have some variety. Tour guides were great too. One thing I would exclude from the tour was visiting leather and olive oil shops .. not necessary at all

    The tour was very well organized, times of pick up always perfect and I got to stay in beautiful hotels, for a relaxing experience after the tours. The guides were all passionate and funny, and I say all because on every tour there was a different guide and different group, which was fine for me because I got to meet a lot of new people (but maybe not so great if you expect to stick with the same group for the whole trip). Overall I can say I am fully satisfied!

    The boat is great. The food was ok. The coastal trip from Istanbul is well balanced. We had only one day rainy day but overall it was sunny.
