    You visit many amazing places in Turkey, it is a mixture of history, culture and beautiful destinations. It is a safe way to travel in small groups with friendly like-minded people.

    The trip itself was great but we prepaid for two extra hotel nights before the start of the tour. Our credit card was charged on Sept 14 but no room was available when we arrived on Sept 27. After a two hour wait late at night we were eventually given a smelly basement room with no window. As no other room was available we checked out the next morning and paid for a room at a hotel down the street. We raised the issue with G Adventures who has given us the run around promising an investigation and then a referral to an operation team and then to a customer specialist team. Neither has responded. While our guide and the trip in Turkey was great, the complete lack of service from G Adventures to the hotel problem leaves us not recommending them as a company.

    Lots of great attractions. Cappadoccia and Kas were the best. Some long travel days and the van was too small to be comfortable. Seats very narrow and two seats facing backwards which no one wanted to sit in.

    The tour guide, Orçun, was terrific. He made the whole trip run smoothly and was so patient and kind with our thoughtless questions. He was very knowledgeable about his country, both recent and ancient history, politics, weather, etc.
