About Travel Talk Tours

My travel talk experience was great and memorable

My travel talk experience was awesome and fantastic. Me and my husband was on their Morocco and Turkey tours in 2019, they operated their tours in a culturally fun manner and the tour guides were very nice and very approachable. It exceeded our expection, we love to come back with them in our future travel. Thank you travel talk you made our 2019 as one of our memorable year!

Just finished the 10 day ANZAC tour in Türkiye. Wow what an experience! The tour although busy was jam packed with amazing experiences made all the more richer by our highly knowledgable and very funny guide Aykut. The bus was full of 44 Aussies and Kiwis which would've been no easy feat to control. Aykut and our drivers Naci and Sevki were kind and patient making our long drives enjoyable. Gallipoli was a bucket list of mine, and what a beautiful humbling experience it was, especially the following day tour of the cemeteries. Other than that highlight, the early morning hot air balloon and all the other sites the Kapadokya offers was pretty special too. I will be using Travel Talk again. 5 stars!

We did the 11 Day Anzac Tour of Turkey. It. Was. Phenomenal. My husband and I absolutely love Turkey and were excited to explore the country. Highlights were definitely the Hot Air Balloons in Cappadocia and the privilege of attending the Dawn Service at Anzac Cove. A bucket list item ticked off. This was my second Travel Talk in 2024 and I would absolutely do another one in the future. The tour was organised and our guide, Mustafa, was fantastic.

One of the best holidays I’ve had

We went on a tour of the Balkans and it was above our expectations. Bojan was the best tour leader gave us so much information about the places we were visiting but also a great laugh! The tour ran so smoothly and was the perfect way to see the area in a little amount of time. It was one of the best holidays I have been on, I loved every minute of it and I can’t wait to book another tour with travel talk. They are great value for money!

Just completed the exotic Morocco tour with our excellent guide Abdul! He was one of the best tour guides I have met, he brought so much energy and knowledge on the tour and could not imagine doing the tour without him. The tour itself was so diverse, seeing so many different landscapes. It has been one of the best trips I have done. Would highly recommend!

I would 100% recommend the ANZAC Travel Talks tour, just finishing the 11 day tour here in Istanbul with our guide Mustafa. I travel alone and have done multiple tours with other well known and popular travel companies and this has hands down been the best!!! INFORMATION! Haha So much engaging history and knowledge from our guide, I found the tours of the palace and ruins with Mustafa very enjoyable. The freedom to skip a museum or tour to explore the city was encouraged. Meet back points and day plans were clearly communicated making it easy to have autonomy in a group setting. I felt like I was in charge of my own holiday and tour experience, which as a solo traveller who loves to do her own thing was perfect! We visited such amazing places on this tour that were bucket list items and once in a life time experiences! A hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia, walking the ruins in Ephesus & Troy. The dawn service at ANZAC Cove and Lone Pine Gallipoli. I am still in awe of the amazing things we have done and seen in these last 11days! The country of Turkey itself is absolutely beautiful and the people here even more so. Very generous and kind, I always felt safe as a female travelling alone. The food AMAZING! Baklava, doner kababs, rice stuffed muscles and Turkish delights to name a few, will make you fall in love! Accommodation was big beautiful mostly 4-5 star hotels in great locations on the beach, in the city! Comfortable beds, ample space and an abundance of food! Most of our accomodation provided buffet breakfast and dinner. Not having to worry about where to eat at the end of a long day or before an early start was very convenient. The work placed into the ANZAC service, security and protection was hands down phenomenal. Multiple check points for security, Turkish workers handing out water, offering first aid, and clearly communicating and directing crowds for the services. All my anxieties for the day were put at ease seeing the work and dedication put in by the Turkish people and government. I honestly cannot fault this tour and want everyone to experience Turkey the way I have gotten to experience this beautiful country. This ANZAC tour will forever be in my memories and my heart as one of the best trips I have ever done! Truely, thank you, teşekkür ederim, Travel Talks Tours.

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our 9 Day Essential Turkey tour with Mustafa as our guide. His attentiveness to the group's needs was amazing, going above and beyond to ensure an stress-free experience. Mustafa provided valuable local insights, guiding us on the best areas to visit and helping us find good local deals. Overall, we found the tour to be excellent value for money, and we were particularly impressed with traveltalks accommodation choices—clean, spacious, and offering great meal options. Additionally, the inclusion of two drivers for our safety during long journeys added an extra layer of reassurance to our memorable trip. Thank you to Mustafa!

Unforgettable Turkey Essentials: A Journey with Travel Talk I recently had the pleasure of embarking on the Turkey Essentials tour with Travel Talk, and let me tell you, it was an adventure like no other! From the bustling streets of Istanbul to the ancient wonders of Ephesus, this tour was a perfect blend of culture, history, and pure fun. Travel Talk ensured that every aspect of our trip was well-planned. The accommodations were comfortable, the transportation was smooth, and the itinerary was perfectly curated to showcase the best of Turkey's rich history and vibrant culture. If you're looking for an incredible adventure in Turkey, I wholeheartedly recommend Travel Talk. Their attention to detail, knowledgeable guides (Mustafa), ensure a seamless and unforgettable journey. Whether you're a history buff, a culture enthusiast, or simply seeking a thrilling travel experience, Travel Talk has got you covered. Thank you, Travel Talk for an extraordinary tour that surpassed all expectations. I'll cherish the memories and stories from this adventure for a lifetime.

Fantastic tour, personable experiences

My first tour with Traveltalk to Jordan was fantastic. Everything was very well planned, the itinerary was timed to perfection and jam packed with amazing experiences. The tour guide Issa went above and beyond to make everyone happy and have the best experience possible, taking us to local restaurants and telling us the best things to eat. Our bus broke down on the way to the Dead Sea and he dealt with it really quickly, and a replacement bus arrived in less than an hour. He treated us all like his friend rather than just a job which make the tour even more special. The hotels were fab and had everything that we needed, all I great locations to local attractions. I booked another tour but had to cancel due to Covid and Traveltalk have placed my deposit aside ready to use on the next trip. I can’t wait to book again with them.

We did the 12 day Turkey tour with the Gullet option, and loved it! The price was super reasonable, Travel Talk was always extremely responsive whenever I reached out. Most importantly, we visited an amazing array of impressive historical sites, saw the profound and varied natural beauty of Turkey and enjoyed incredible experiences like hot air ballooning and paragliding. Mustafa was the best tour guide we have ever had. His knowledge and organizational skills were top notch, he helped with everything (even with arranging laundry services) and was hilarious as well. The food was tasty, the hotels were good and the boat trip was fun and relaxing with beautiful scenery and a lot of swimming. The cabins on the boat weren’t air conditioned and were pretty hot at night, so some people slept on deck where there were plenty of places with cushions where you could stretch out and get a good nights rest. I highly recommend this tour!!

The 9-day Turkey Essentials tour with Travel Talk Tours exceeded our expectations! The well-crafted itinerary showcased Turkey's best, complemented by excellent hotel choices. Mustafa, our guide, added depth with his rich knowledge, engaging storytelling and brilliant sense of humour. The seamless experience, from transportation, meals, accommodations, sightseeing and optional activities made this tour unforgettable. Highly recommended for those seeking a perfect blend of culture and comfort in Turkey.

Wow. 9 Day Essential Turkey Tour with Mustafa from Travel Talk Tours. Absolutely exceeded all expectations. I am in love with Turkey! The sights, the places, the hotels, the food, the bus and the antics of our amazing guide was seriously fantastic. This was an unforgettable experience and I am so glad I stumbled across Travel Talk and chose them. Mustafa you made me laugh and made us all feel so safe and welcome.. best guide I've ever had. ❤️

Mustafa is the key to a fantastic Essential Turkey tour

My partner and I did the Essential Turkey tour in November/December 2021. We had a fantastic time, and can both only recommend Travel Talk and this tour. Mustafa Kurt, our incredible guide, is really who sets this tour apart from any competition. He conducts the majority of Travel Talk's Essential Turkey, so you may get lucky if you book. Mustafa is an extremely qualified tour guide, with an extraordinary tourism CV, who wholly commits to ensuring that those on his tour have the very best Turkey experience possible. The man goes well above and beyond, without even thinking twice. He is a natural leader, whilst also being a friend. He was hilarious to have around us, bringing all the laughs and very much aiding in bringing the group together. His knowledge of Turkey is second to none, and he never lets this or his jokes get stale. The minibus that we used was better than expected - modern and comfy. We also had two drivers, adding to safety and ability to cover the long distances required. The hotels on the tour do vary, but are generally good. Travel Talk were responsive during booking, and flexible when it came to us having to delay due to Covid.

Travel Talk's 9-day trip all over Turkey has exceeded all of my expectations. The itinerary was well-crafted, seamlessly blending historical marvels like Istanbul and Ephesus with breathtaking landscapes in Cappadocia. Mustafa was very knowledgeable and have a good sense of humour which made the trip even more fun. The accommodations made our stay very comfortable. Each day was a new adventure, making it a truly unforgettable experience. Will definitely go with travel talk again for future tour guide trips!

Best tour ever

I absolutely loved my trips with travel talk. I did the Egypt and Jordan tour and it was so magical. I felt completely safe and all the activities included and those not included were both clearly stated and priced so I could budget for the trip with no surprise costs. Highly recommend! I can’t wait to be able to travel again soon with travel talk.

Travelled to Türkiye/Turkey 🇹🇷 with Mustafa as a guide in December 2023. We were able to get a taste of the country and visit many great sites such as Pamukkale and Gallipoli. Mustafa was extremely informative and provided deep insights into the history and culture of Anatolia, the Ottoman Empire and modern day Türkiye. His dry humour and great organisational skills made for an incredibly smooth trip. More time spent in Cappadocia and Pamukkale would've been preferred. Thanks Mustafa!

The “Essential Turkey” tour was exceptionally run, thanks to our fantastic tour guide Mustafa (and his yellow teddy bear, Wilson). 🧸 Mustafa was very personable, flexible and accommodating to any specific requests - he wants everyone to make the most out of their Türkiye experience. I spontaneously chose this tour and came with no expectations - Travel Talk has shown me the best of Türkiye in a condensed timeframe. Alongside the famous tourist sites, Travel Talk provided great opportunities to experience and support local businesses and restaurants including a visit to a Turkish Night show and handmade carpet shop! Great tour, looking forward to jumping onto another one!

Turkey 9 Day Essential Tour with Mustafa as our guide was amazing! Turkey offered a bit of everything for everyone - from the modern city, to ancient ruins and of course for the Aussies and Kiwis we experienced Gallipoli. This was my third Travel Talk Tour and Mustafa was by far the best guide I’ve had! Thank you 🤩🙌

Balkan Discovery 10 day tour April 2024. Great way to explore much of the Balkan area (our first time visiting). Dušan - our guide, 5 star!! Slavche - our driver, 5 star!! Some of the hotels we stayed in were in need of updates but they were all clean (USA rating 2-3 star).

Definitely recommend Travel Talk Tour! My 1st time with Travel Talk on a 9-days Balkans tour. It's a well-planned and clearly communicated schedule with Vojin as our guide. He's very considerate and well-versed with historical information about the Balkans and always helpful. Slavcè, our coach chauffeur, was a very safe and responsible driver. Well done 👏

I completed and 9 day essential Turkey tour - it was great!! Mustafa was an amazing tour guide with so much knowledge on all of the history and site seeing spots. He kept the tours lively and interesting and everything - everyday - was so well organised. Accom was all 4/5 star. A lot of time spent in the bus but this is needed to see the sites. Overall loved seeing so much of Turkey and would recommend! Thank you to Mustafa and our bus drivers!

We recently completed a wonderful 12 day tour of Turkey with an amazing and jam-packed itinerary which took us all around the country. The tour wouldn’t be nearly as good if it weren’t for our amazing tour guide Aykut, he truly went above and beyond in every aspect, always giving the best facts, advice and suggestions for every place we stayed or visited. Making sure everyone in our large group was always fed the best food, kept updated on the town’s nightly events, he added bonus stops and visits to the itinerary (which were some of the highlights of the whole tour), whilst somehow having the energy to keep the long (yet still comfortable) bus journeys interesting with his incredible stories of tradition and culture of the amazing country.
