    AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!!! Did not expect it to be so smooth sailing and well-planned. Our tour guides were really friendly and informative and made sure that we had all our questions answered and ensured to consider individual needs wherever possible. The transport was comfortable and we were given all our flight details and itinerary beforehand. Hotel rooms were also up to the standard with good breakfast options. If you are a vegetarian, you might get limited options because the country is not so vegan/vege friendly, but whatever options were available, they were delicious. We had 2 different groups during day 1-2 and day 4-5 (day 3 was free), and fortunately both the groups were friendly and interactive, which made the trip more memorable. The tour coordinator was readily available on whatsapp for queries. I highly recommend City of Sultans if you're planning your next trip to Turkey.

    The overall experience was great! I am not saying that all was smooth ‘sailing’ but rather it was great because the atmosphere was enjoyable. We traveled with a positive attitude and took any mishaps with a relaxed, cheerful approach. The airplane travel arrangements went smoothly, the tour guides were friendly and very knowledgeable, the sites visited provided a very historical and cultural experience of Türkiye. We had a variety of local accommodations which were nice surprises and added positively to the experience. We were fortunate to have some small tour groups that made the excursions more enjoyable. There was only one day, on the visit to Pamukkale, when the group was a bit close to fifteen people and it was tricky to coordinate such a larger group mainly due to inexperienced or inconsiderate travelers, not the tour guides. Highly recommend City of Sultans. The team worked with us to adjust the tours to our timeline; they were very approachable and responsive with timely communication. Thank you and we hope to visit your country again!

    The organization and timing of the connections were well done, but we felt that the communication to us about the agenda was poor. We are an elderly couple, and anxious travelers, who chose the tour to maximize what we could see in 5 days. Unfortunately, it felt rushed at times. The guides were informative and the hotels and food very good. Pamukkale was a total bust, no fault of the tour organizers obviously, but there was little water and little blue color. We knew that admission fees to sites were not included, but were SHOCKED at that expense. Türkiye is certainly ripping off foreigners right and left and is no longer a cheap holiday destination. Except for tea, everything at restaurants and shops are about the same price as Italy or Spain. We will not return. Again, no fault of the tour organizers.

    I enjoyed having someone help us through these locations; I normally figure things out on my own but chose the “tour” because I didn’t have time to figure out where to stay and how to get from place to place. I’m glad I did. The “Tour” was well worth it.

    The booking process was very easy and most of the tour was as described. Our time in Cappadocia was incredible. Our guide (Ali) was excellent and we felt very well taken care of and the hotel was lovely. We changed our tour dates as we were asked to so we could have a direct flight to Izmir but still had to transfer at Istanbul which meant we spent over 7 hours travelling/waiting in airports. There was no explanation as why this wasn’t a direct flight and we feel like our dates were moved to be more convenient for the company. Our ‘tour’ of Pamukkale was disappointing. We were dropped at the entrance, shown a map and where to meet at the end. We made the most of our time but we felt like we had been promised more. Our day in Ephesus was great. We had a really good day and our guide was very informative.
