The trip was a great experience, the cities and places were amazing. Burcu made a great job with recommendations, building my trip and the support during the trip. We faced a couple of unexpected situations and she helped me to fix them. I took several tours and they were great experiences and tour guides were really knowledgeable.

Hotel Reviews
Erboy Hotel Istanbul Sirkeci
İstanbul

Erboy Hotel Istanbul Sirkeci provided a wonderful stay. The breakfast served was really good, and they started serving early enough that I could enjoy it before my tours started. The location was convenient for exploring the city, too.

LaVista Boutique Hotel & Spa - Boutique Class
Kusadasi

LaVista Boutique Hotel & Spa had an amazing view of the beach, and the sunsets and sunrises were particularly beautiful. The hotel was clean, and the rooms were spacious and met my standards. I appreciated the to-go breakfast they prepared for my early check-out.

Activity Reviews
Bosphorus Cruise - Turkish Night with Dinner & Belly Dance Shows

The Bosphorus Cruise with Turkish Night and Dinner was a great experience. The dancers were really entertaining, and I was surprised by how many there were. However, the dinner service could use some improvement. There was only one waiter for our section, and he was quite overwhelmed, leading to a mix-up with my order. Despite that, the overall experience was enjoyable.

Full Day Ephesus Tour

Turkey

The Full Day Ephesus Tour was not quite what I expected, especially the Artemis Temple which was just a pillar. The site was crowded due to a national holiday with lots of domestic tourists. However, the guide was good, and overall it was an educational experience despite the crowds.
