- KSKevin· March 19th, 2025A worthwhile existence that can be made great by providing a daily itinerary with times for tours so travelers can know how the day will be spent. My biggest negatives was the hotel room 206 I was assigned at the Efe Hotel in Kusadasi was dirty, with hair in the hair dryer drawer, dirt on a counter in the room and mold in the shower. I did ask a fellow traveler about his rooms condition and he said his was clean. However the general maintenance of the hotel was lacking and the lights in the stairwell did not turn on automatically at night. It would seem this hotel enjoys its water front position and is taking customers for granted. The tour of Antalya was OK and damaged by two mandatory shopping stops and an hour riding in the van to pick up other people, including the guide. For some reason, the team is unaware that Cleopatra pool is closed for months In Pamukkale. There are times when it felt like my time at a sight was being limited so that transportation to the next city could occur on their schedule. The airport transport from Kayseri was not very clear- you must go outside the terminal to find the person taking you to Cappodocia. The team did communicate via WhatsApp and was responsive to my questions. If you can go with the flow and focus on the scenery, history and the great tour guides you will have, it makes the journey enjoyable.Show moreCity of Sultans commented on this reviewThank you very much for choosing our services.

- MSMonica-Svetlana· August 26th, 2024If you want to see main attractions in Turkey, it is a good tour. However, it was not well planned. Every day before you get to see the attraction listed, you are taken to pottery shop, jewelry store, wine store, etc. So out of 12 hours on Pamukkale tour, I actually spent only 2 hours there. Also, most tour guides bring you to attraction and then leave you to explore it yourself. I actually expected to have more historical and cultural explanations (tour) but only one guide in Ephesus (Barbaros) took as around the place and explained what we see.

- Jonea· June 5th, 2024Well organized, the itinerary worked well. Other than I spent day 3 traveling and there was no sight seeing, I know this was due to the flight schedule. But for the cost of the trip made it feel like a lost a day. The guides were all great, but my guide to Ephesus was excellent, he went by the name Adam. He made our day so much fun and it was my favorite day of the tour.Show moreCity of Sultans commented on this reviewThank you very much for choosing our services.

- Roland· December 7th, 2023The hotel and the hotel location in Capadoccia could have been better. They should pick a hotel in the Gerome area which I believe is the best location in the Capadoccia. The transportation transfer from Pamukkale to Kusadasi was a little unorganized. I waited for an hour for the transfer.Show moreCity of Sultans commented on this reviewThank you very much for choosing our services. It was our great pleasure to serve you.

Asked on February 10th, 2025What time does the flight leave Istanbul for cappadocia on this tour package. We are interested in this tour but our flight arrives in Athens at 6.30am the morning of 1 August would we get to Istanbul in time for the flight to cappadocia or would we have to stay a night and join the next day 2 August?
- City of SultansOperator•Written February 2025
As the flight to Cappadocia leaves very early in the morning, it would not be possible to catch the flight to Cappadocia on the 1st of August. You would have to start the tour on the 2nd of August.
