Absolutely Turkey

This tour exceeded our expectations in both content and value for money. A large modern and comfortable bus was provided for our transportation and it was driven safely and gently at all times by our driver Gorkan. Our guide Ahmet demonstrated a rare ability to communicate freely in English and, at the same time, convey the passion and pride that he felt for his country as a Turk. His enthusiasm led us into areas we never expected to as he conveyed the history of Turkey to us. It was always appropriate to the location and particularly interesting. We were fortunate to have a small group of travellers who bonded well and communicated freely throughout the seven days. The Australians in particular were quite moved during the visit to the Gallipoli Peninsula. Each of the other sites were fantastic in both historic content and visual impact. The contrast between the ancient history of Troy, the natural beauty of Pamukkale and the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia was truly amazing. The accomodation provided was four-star but each location was different in theme and more than adequate for any traveller's needs. Despite the current spectre of security in Turkey, at no time did we feel unsafe or threatened. Overall, an excellent tour managed by a most capable and entertaining guide. John

I highly recommend this tour. I enjoyed it so much that I can't stop talking about this tour. The local tour agency that handled this wonderful great experience of Turkey. Hakan our tour guide is a jewel of this trip and for the company. He is an intelligent, loving, caring and knowledgeable and who truly loves his country. Our group are so lucky to have toured with him in explaining the history, the people of Turkey. Of course Gokhan our captain driver of the entire 7 day journey kept us very safe and on time schedule. He is as nice as Hakan. I would encourage everyone to join this tour when in Turkey to truly see the beauty of Turkey. I will definitely go back cause we were not able to do the hot air balloon ride due to strong wind situation. I have gained friends in this trip.

The trip exceeded out expectations, our guide was well organised informative and spoke very good english, we say so many interesting sites , and our accommodation was excellent, overall it was very enjoyable and excellent value. Would have no hesitation in recommending this trip.

My wife and I are not big fans of organized tours but the 7 day Turkey Express tour was a fantastic experience that we would highly recommend to other travelers. Our guide, Ahmet, was funny, knowledgeable, and truly cared that we had the best experience possible. The coach, the hotels and the food were all top notch. We felt completely safe and comfortable on this tour.

I just returned from this amazing trip which was organized by Eskapas. I thought that the company would cheap out on the hotels and food, given the unbelievably low rate, but I was pleasantly surprised. All the hotels were 4 stars and were very centrally located. We stayed at water front properties at Canakale and Kusadasi with amazing views. The resort at Pammukale had a thermal pool and mud bath, all complimentary. The breakfasts and dinners were literally lavish buffets! The tour guides were good. Nonetheless, I had a blast. It was the perfect time to go as i didn't experience any crowds, long lines, and the weather was beautiful! It turned out to be one of the most memorable trips ever. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour. The value for money is too good to be true! You can't pull this kind of a tour on your own, that too in this kind of budget. Stop thinking, start booking!

This trip was absolutely incredible. My husband and I had such a nice time seeing Turkey with our guide, Ahmet who was very knowledgeable and always had an answer for every question The hotels were great, I especially loved staying in Kusadasi and Cappadocia. Kusadasi is on the coast line with lots of cafes and things to do. In Cappadocia we stayed in a 4**** hotel, it was beautiful. I wish I would stay in a cave hotel. I really enjoyed visiting all the Roman ruin sites and especially loved seeing the calcium travertines in Pamukkale. The breakfasts and dinners were great, i really enjoyed all the food - i am definitely going to miss the big breakfasts with olives, cheese, yogurt, jam, turkish coffee, etc. I highly recommend this tour, it was an experience that I will never forget.

Fantastic tour covering the highlights of Turkey. Amazingly knowledable guide (Sennur) and OMG the FOOD!!! Included meals were great and varied and our guide took us to great (cheap and varied) places for lunches. Accommodation was generally good. Overall unbeatable value for money.

The tour was operated by a reputable Turkish Tour company Eskapas. Our guide Sevgi was excellent, her knowledge and enthusiasm was outstanding, she had so much information on every site we visited that it saved me hours and hours of research. The driver was also excellent, very safe and polite. The sites were all the big sites I wanted to see, we were delivered to the doorstop, tickets were pre-purchased, no waiting. The accommodation varied from good to terrible. The Akol was adequate, the Neopol in Kusadasi was good, the Tripolis in Pamukkale was old and tired and too far out of town and the Dinler in Cappadocia was not a bad hotel but I got the worst rooms there. The buffet breakfasts and dinners were adequate. Overall the tour was enjoyable and informative, as a single woman travelling on my own it was fantastic and safe. I would highly recommend the tour and thought it was good value.

Generally speaking, this tour is a good one and the areas covered are rather extensive for a regular tourist. I am a little bit upset as I could't fly with hot air balloon in Cappadocia. But i will retrun back. Good value for your money.

Good tour that sees a lot of Turkey. Lots of driving so avoid if you don't like long road trips but the bus is comfortable and there are regular stops The guide was a bit hit and miss. Very knowledgable but not very friendly.
