Jyoti· October 15th, 2023We had a fantastic time in Turkey. The tour operator, Altinkum, was the best choice. They went above and beyond to make our trip smooth and enjoyable. With the flight delayed, pick up from the airport was all messed up, but they picked us up when the flight arrived. I had missing luggage, and the guide, Metin, helped me so it could reach the next destination since we were leaving Istanbul. Our group was very fussy eating lunch, and they accommodated us. We couldn't have asked for a better tour operator and a guide. I highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed. Thank you, tour Altinkum for an excellent service.Show more
