What people love about Turkey Tours in July
The accommodation exceeded expectation as did the rest of the trip. Our coach was a new Mercedes and our driver Eirem was exceedingly competent. There was also a good mix of seeing the top commercial products of Turkey and the historical sites. Our guide Tolga was also very knowledgeable on many topics and looked after us extremely well. All in all very good value for money and we have wonderful memories of Turkey.
Wonders of Turkey (Summer)
In total the itinerary was V.GOOD. The accomodation at the countryside has only heater no A/C. KIRCILAR LEATHER We got a jacket which they said was repaired but they just GLUED it. We bought the jacket at a high price thinking that they are gonna give a good warranty on the leather what a BIG DISAPPOINTMENT! I hope trafalgar will look for a much reliable leather outlet in the future. If they cant warranty it then dnt make it as an ADVERTISEMENT ! Just dnt BUY at the leather stopover.
Best of Turkey (Summer, 14 Days) (16 destinations)
- Aegean Prelude Tour
Tour and Itinerary were comprehensive and good. Driver was very good at his job, but would have preferred if the Guide and Driver didn't have loud, animated conversations during our drives, as that was when we were all resting. There were a few extras along the way, that we were not informed about as an option from the guide, until I asked. Also, there was a Museum with relics, etc. in Efesus, that we were not told about either. I understand one has to pay extra for it, but we should have been told about the option to visit it. When I asked what the building was, we were already quite far from it, and the little free time at the end, would not have allowed for enough time to go all the way back. Would have worked well if the guide had given us a little free time in between as the distances are large, but I guess he didn't want to wait for us, and instead wanted to finish off his tour and go back to the van. Logistically, this was not to the advantage of the clients. Also, accommodations in Kudasadi were below average. The hotel is really run down and we were expecting to be put up at the Ilayda Avantgarde Hotel (or similar) as per the itinerary, which was much nicer. Lastly, the guide was extremely professional, pleasant, knowledgeable and factual, but lacked a personality and the ability to make the information he was giving us, less dry and more interesting. If these few things could be improved on, I think it would be a very good tour.
What our customers ask about Turkey Tours in July 2026
What is the weather like in Turkey during July?
Different regions of Turkey experience distinct weather patterns in July. Istanbul sees temperatures around 82°F (28°C) while Cappadocia reaches 86°F (30°C). The coastal region of Kusadasi gets warmer with temperatures up to 95°F (35°C) and noticeable humidity. One TourRadar traveler noted: "The weather was hot in July but the hotels and transportation were well air-conditioned making it comfortable to travel." The best approach is to schedule activities for early morning and pack clothes made from light materials.
Are the famous Turkish hot air balloon rides available in July?
Balloon rides run every day in Cappadocia during July with a 5:00 AM departure to view sunrise. Expect to pay between 300-350 USD per person for this experience. According to a TourRadar traveler: "The balloon flight was unforgettable worth waking up early as the morning temperatures were perfect and the views of the fairy chimneys at sunrise were spectacular." Each flight takes about an hour with hotel pickup service available from properties like Arte Cave Hotel or Under Cave Hotel.
What are the accommodation options in Turkey during July?
Turkey's accommodations cater well to summer visitors. The Recital Hotel in Istanbul's Sultanahmet district provides modern cooling systems. Cappadocia's cave hotels such as Dere Suites naturally maintain cool temperatures. Coastal properties like Charisma De Luxe in Kusadasi come with ocean views and pools. As one TourRadar traveler noted "The cave hotel in Cappadocia was magnificent good for photos and offered great relief from the July heat."
What are the best day trips to take in Turkey during July?
July visitors often choose the Bosphorus Cruise in Istanbul trips to Pamukkale's white travertines and tours of Cappadocia's underground cities. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The Duden waterfalls tour in Antalya was perfect for July - the cool mist from the falls provided natural air conditioning."
Is July a good time for visiting Turkish beaches?
The Mediterranean and Aegean coasts of Turkey provide ideal beach conditions in July. Water temperatures are perfect for swimming especially in areas like Kusadasi. One TourRadar traveler suggests: "Plan beach visits early morning or late afternoon to avoid the intense midday sun."
Are there any special festivals or events in Turkey during July?
July brings cultural celebrations across Turkey including the Aspendos Opera and Ballet Festival near Antalya and food festivals in coastal areas. Istanbul hosts the Constantinople Jazz Festival throughout the month. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The evening folkloric shows in Cappadocia were a highlight with traditional music and whirling dervishes performing in the cool evening air."
