    We usually travel independently so this was our first tour experience. It makes traveling under a time limit really easy. Highly recommend.

    G Adventures continues to provide affordable trips that are fun and immersive. You have a knack for finding that good balance between local flair and quality. I have been on multiple tours with G Adventures and will be on many more to come. The Best of Turkey tour proved to be a wealth of content and relaxation.

    The "Best of Turkey" tour is a fantastic itinerary for anyone looking to explore the historical side of the country; it covers a lot of sites whilst also providing time to visit local areas and secluded villages, and enjoy the Turkish culture. The trip is crammed with activities from start to finish - you see and do so much more than expected! From the bustle of Istanbul to the ruins of Ephesus and the beauty of Pammukale, this is a trip that caters for every taste. What a tour - I've absolutely loved it!
