13-day Best of Turkey (Small Group Tour)
- Premium Turkey in Depth
Our guide Fatih Devel and our van driver Mustafa Bostan were exceptional. As individuals or as a team they come highly recommened and I wouldnt hesitate to tell people to make a personal request for their services. Fatih's passion, knowledge and genuine love of his country took us to a whole level we didnt expect to experience. A once in a lifetime experience. One of the safest, friendliest places I have ever travelled. Book now. It will be worth it. Thank you Fatih and Mustafa for going beyond the call of duty and responsibility. You were both the real Trasures of Turkey for us.

What our customers ask about Turkey Small Group Tours
What is the typical group size for small group tours in Turkey?
Small group tours in Turkey typically host 12-14 travelers keeping the experience intimate. While some tours like the Turkey Explorer occasionally accommodate up to 19 people the smaller size allows for more personal attention. Boutique accommodations such as the Efe Boutique Hotel in Kusadasi and Melekler Evi Cave Hotel in Cappadocia are selected specifically for these smaller groups making the experience feel more like traveling with friends than a large tour group.
What types of accommodation can I expect on a small group tour in Turkey?
Small group tours focus on local authentic accommodations that showcase Turkish hospitality. Travelers stay in carefully selected properties like the Arte Cave Hotel in Cappadocia the Arden City Hotel in Istanbul's historic district and the Efe Boutique Hotel in Kusadasi. These properties offer a more personal connection to the destination compared to international chain hotels. As one TourRadar traveler mentioned: "The hotels were very comfortable and provided a perfect rest after long days of sightseeing. I particularly appreciated the intimate atmosphere of the boutique hotels."
How much free time is built into small group itineraries in Turkey?
The schedules blend guided activities with independent exploration. Travelers have free evenings in cities like Istanbul and Kusadasi plus flexible time in Cappadocia for optional activities. One TourRadar traveler noted: "Our guide gave us enough information about each day's itinerary and free time to explore on our own." The small group format allows for spontaneous stops at local markets viewpoints or other points of interest based on group preferences.
What is the average duration of small group tours in Turkey?
Most tours run between 7-11 days with 8-day itineraries like the Highlights of Turkey tour being the most common choice. This timeframe lets travelers explore major destinations including Istanbul Cappadocia Ephesus and Pamukkale while maintaining the benefits of traveling with a smaller group.
What's different about meal experiences on small group tours?
The smaller group size opens doors to authentic dining experiences at family-run establishments rather than tourist-oriented buffets. Groups can enjoy meals in traditional cave restaurants in Cappadocia or neighborhood eateries in Istanbul. One TourRadar traveler mentioned "We could eat at charming local places where our guide knew the owners instead of big tourist restaurants."
