    We enjoyed our 6 day classics tour. Our starting point Nidya Hotel was very nice and within walking distance to Galata tower. Our guide was G and he was very easy to get a long with. We covered a large distance but which was expected but we chose not to do the long drive back to Istanbul on the last day electing to fly back from Kayseri airport. We really enjoyed the hotels in Kusadasi, Pamukkale and Cappadocia (many steps to the rooms). Hotel Barbaros in Canakkale should have cooled the rooms before we all arrived. They were unbearably hot when we arrived. Our meal there that night was great. Although we paid for day 7 and our transport back Istanbul and our hotel had to pay our own way to the Kayseri airport on day 7

    Really enjoyed this tour. Our guide Goksu (G) was really informative and engaging. Being Australian, we were especially honoured to visit Gallipoli. The gulet tour was a great way to relax during tour and balloon ride in Cappadocia was unforgettable. Turkiye is an amazing country.

    Our Tour was The Agean Odyssey, which began in Athens, visited Greek islands, toured ancient sites along the west coast of Turkey, and ended a couple weeks later in Istanbul. We are very happy with our trip, but a single review format isn't conducive to details as each section of the trip was so distinct in area, activities, and our being independent in Greece
