- Jasreet· June 12th, 2025This tour was incredible! I went with my sister, and we had the best time. The hotels were thoughtfully chosen to be close to town centres, so you could explore on your own in the evenings. The itineraries ensured we saw a lot of what each location had to offer while allowing plenty of time for side activities you’d like to do separately. We also had an incredible guide, Ali, and driver Mr. Orhan, both of whom made the whole trip extra special. And we got lucky with a great group of fellow travellers as well! Highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in spending some extra time in Turkey.Show more
- Mary· June 10th, 2025The tour was great with hotels in excellent locations. The buffet food options could’ve been better during the Ephesus tour but otherwise everything was pretty smooth and well planned.Show more
- Jennifer· June 10th, 2025I had an amazing experience on the 8-Day Discover Turkey Tour with City of Sultans. The itinerary was perfectly paced and covered all the must-see highlights, from the majestic Hagia Sophia and vibrant Grand Bazaar in Istanbul to the surreal landscapes of Cappadocia and the ancient ruins of Ephesus and Pamukkale. The hotels were comfortable and well-located, especially the cave hotel in Cappadocia, which was a unique treat. Our guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly organized. The Skip-the-Line tickets made sightseeing so much smoother, and the included flights between regions saved time and hassle. Everything was seamless thanks to the 24/7 support from the City of Sultans team. I felt well taken care of throughout the trip. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Turkey’s rich history and stunning natural beauty with zero stress.Show more

Asked on October 30th, 2024Do you pick up from Wyndham Istanbul Esenyurt Hotel? I've read on some sites that the luggage allowance is 15kgs. As I'm coming from overseas, my suitcase will be around 20-23kgs + my carry on. How do I go about this? For my return back to a hotel in Istanbul, can it be a different hotel? I'd like to stay in the centre of town after this trip. Also, what time would we roughly get back into Istanbul? Is there an option to do the hot air balloon ride and how much is this?
- City of SultansOperator•Written October 2024
The hotel you mentioned is very very far from the city center and out of the insurance zone, so we would not be able to provide a pick-up from there. You would be able to purchase additional luggage online after you have booked and your tickets have been purchased. Since the package you are enquiring about ends with the flight back to Istanbul. There would be no transfer back to the hotel upon arrival, this can, however, be added on at a fee of 120 USD - Including greeting service upon arrival. You would be back at Istanbul in the evening, between 8 - 10 PM. The hot air balloon ride can certainly be added on, it costs 349 USD at the moment.

Asked on May 23rd, 2024Can you arrange pickup at the airport? Also can we select flight to the same airport at the end of tour?
- City of SultansOperator•Written May 2024
We can arrange for a pick-up at a cost upon arrival, as the package does not include an arrival transfer. The Price would be 120 USD - Including greeting service upon arrival. You would be arriving back at IST (New Airport) by default unless requested otherwise.
