    The tour is ok but part of the itinerary definitely needs improvement. For example, day 2 we spent the whole day checking all different locations of tombstones along the coastline on our way to the next destination, they are all similar. We made like 6/7 stops, which can certainly be reduced to 2/3. Seems that our schedule was just stretched only to fill the day tour. It was very tiring to stay on the bus all day. We could have arrived at the hotel earlier and enjoy the facilities at the hotel. That’s one of the main reasons we booked this tour with 4/5 stars hotels. Also for 3days staying in Greenland hotel in Fethiye, the pool and gym closes at 6pm and opens at 8am. This doesn’t make sense as we have tour schedules during the day, it is impossible for us to enjoy any facilities at the hotel. Also, none of the entrance fees or activities are included, they are all optional, but they will make the stops anyways so be prepared to pay extra 500 -700 euros if you want all these activities with the tour.

    The tour was excellent and made all the better by our great guide with 10 stars to Akyut. . If you want a deep dive into Turkie then use Travel Talk / Tour Radar and hope you get Aykut as your guide. Brand new coach with 2 drivers ( most tours only have 1 driver). Turkie is really an amazing country to explore. Highly recommended.

    This tour is an absolute MUST for those who wish to see various parts of Turkey, since it includes the coast and inland Cappadocia. It included the perfect amount of beaches, history, and wildlife. Our tour guide Yilderay and our two drivers were absolutely fabulous! Keep in mind there is a fair amount of driving, so if you prefer flying - this tour may not be for you, but we loved it, as it allowed us time to go through photos and really get to know the other guests on the tour. My only advice would be for Travel Talk to keep up to date with the admissions pricing of the attractions and for all guests to bring cash (euro, pound, or lira) to cover those admissions (with the exception of the hot air balloon and paragliding). Many of the guests had issues getting cash in Istanbul and several folks had their cards eaten by ATMs. Other than that, the tour was absolutely fabulous - highly recommend!

    I did the best of turkey by land tour and could not fault it! From start to finish everything ran so smoothly and our days were planned with just the right amount of sightseeing. Our guide Mustafa was so accommodating and made us feel like nothing was ever too much trouble. The tour itself was great value for money and a convenient way to see so much of beautiful Turkey. Would highly recommend �
