    The Eskapas team was so friendly to my wife, Mary, and me that we felt completely comfortable and well taken care of. They always aimed to provide the best service and were available anytime we needed assistance. The hotels they arranged, the itinerary, and the cruise were all beautiful and unique experiences. Our thanks go out to Alex, our tour operator, and the entire Eskapas team for making this trip so special.

    Our tour guides did an excellent job of keeping us informed throughout the journey. They shared the background, significance, and unique aspects of each place without overwhelming us. They patiently answered all our questions and went out of their way to help whenever needed. The driver and hotel staff were also top-notch in their roles.

    This trip was filled with incredible natural and historic sites. Having a knowledgeable guide made the experience even better, adding so much value to each place we visited. Exploring Turkey with this agency gave me so many unforgettable memories, thanks to the guides who looked after every detail we needed. The small group size also made it easier to connect and enjoy the journey.

    On this 12-day tour, we saw many unforgettable places, but my favorites were definitely Pamukkale with its natural hot springs and white calcium terraces, and the hot air balloon ride in Cappadocia. The weather was perfect throughout – not too hot or too cold. With top-notch accommodations and excellent guides, all we had to do was enjoy every moment of the journey.
