Very professional and customer service oriented company. All of the staff I encountered were thoughtful, and accommodating. When there was a bit of a concern I had, I was not brushed off and treated rudely as I've experienced with other companies; my concern was addressed immediately in a fair manner. I highly recommend this tour company; they treat people with respect and honestly seem to want your trip to be the best it can be ...more ...less

Turkey. 12 day tour with Gullet cruise. A novice speaks.

May 2013

We've never done a coach tour before. Was expecting a lot of driving obviously but didn't expect five to seven hours a day (and this was just the west coast). If only they could make Turkey smaller! The guide however was excellent "we will stop soon for some snakes" and our group were all good company but that became a problem:- Parts of the group would be taken away to hotels far away and be replaced by (equally nice) strangers. This led to rumblings within the group and some discontent for suddenly a "chum" would never be seen again. (ENCOUNTERS please take note). All the guided trips were well thought out with just the right amount of old rocks and Mosques. All the hotels and food were good. The highlight for me was going to be the three day Gullet cruise as I love anything to do with boats however this is the first time in my life that I've ever wanted to get off a boat and I used to be in the Merchant Navy. On boarding we were greeted by the skipper as if we were Somalian pirates (by this time only one of the origanal group was with us). His attitude never waivered apart from once when he waved cheerfully while leaving the boat in the dinghy and we all thought he might have skuppered it. Only one sheet was supplied as we were expected to sleep under blankets even in the cabins. In his defence he turned out to be the best BBQ cook ever, his cheerful but hard bitten wife however did everything else and was solely responsible for all of the best food we had had on the whole trip. Of the three days aboard we were allowed only three hours ashore. The "Tree Houses" were a basic but much welcome and relaxing "alternative" relief. ...more ...less
