My girlfriend and i booked online from www.greeceturkeytours.com with Mr Mehmet for their Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum package tour that we had seen on their webpage but also because we had heard so many great things about these areas of Turkey and also about this specific agency. What we really found to be comforting throughout our Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum package tour was that we had the same tour guide on every tour which was so great as we all became like good friends. The tour guide we had was a man called Burak who we found to be very impressive - knowledgable and most of very friendly and helpful, as we listened to him talk about the each and every place we explored you could see how excited and enthausitic he was which for us really put an extra edge on the tours and any other tours we had been on in our past adventures. In the whole 10 days we was touring we did not occur not one single problem or fault from any aspect and infact every inch of our Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum Package tour was a dream vacation for us both so thankyou very much for everything!Miss Jackie Carter 2019-02-12
What i learnt about my time in Turkey on the Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum package tour was what an amazing and beautiful country Turkey is! Everywhere you turn thre was something to explore / discover and no matter what it was it certainly gave that wow factor. The tours on this Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum package tour take you to all the highlighted areas you hear and read so much about and when they are accompained by a brilliant intellectual tour guide it makes everything 10x better thats for sure. I would indeed highly recommend this Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum package tour as otherwise you will find it rather difficult to cover all these places on a one 10 day trip, the price of this package is incredible as it also included our internal flights, transfers, hotels, tours and various meals....absolute bargain and an experience of a lifetime so if it sounds like something for you which im sure it should then check out www.greeceturkeytours.com and let them take of you dream package trip just like they did for us.Mr Nathan Banks 2019-01-15
I booked this Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum package tour at the last minute with www.greeceturkeytours.com , with it been so last minute i was really surprised by the level of exceptional service i recieved from mehmet and most of all how prompt he was for arranging everything for me on such short notice - it was very much appreciated! What i loved about the Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum package tour was that everything was taken care of and i didnt have to arrange nothing myself, all transfers - hotels and tours were included in the price i paid and i can freely say everything surpassed my expectations without a doubt in my mind. As i recieved such excellent service and my Istanbul - Cappadocia - Ephesus & Bodrum package tour was very delightful i would in my next heartbeat recommend this agency and trip to everyone near and far with no hesitation. Big thumbs up from me!
