- Catherine· August 31st, 2025It was great! The arrangements were flawless. The accommodations and transportation were comfortable. The coordination and response times were good. Tour operator was also flexible and offered alternatives when one attraction was temporarily closed.Show more
- James· August 28th, 2025The things to do on the trip were amazing! If you get Mert as your guide then you are in luck as he is phenomenal and his knowledge of the country was awesome. Food choices were also excellent! My only knock was that about half of the hotels were below average with smells or non working AC. The other is I chose solo to have my own room but the everyone else was female so I definitely was taken advantage of by having to pay $300 extra when they clearly knew I was the only guy. The other half of the hotels though were amazing and with stunning views and accommodations. Despite the couple of bad hotels wouldn't let that dismay anyone from choosing this tour. Felt safe with great internet the whole time as well. Was an amazing insight into a country I never thought I would be able to get to.Show more
- José· August 27th, 2025Captain was excellent. Your organization almost put everything to wasteShow more

Asked on September 19th, 2024What type of vehicle are we transported in while in Turkey? Are we part of a large group or just our small family group? When we board the ship, it appears to be a huge cruise line. Are we then still with our guide?

Traveler•Written June 2024They are very close but we are looking for a tour that includes Istanbul, Gallipoli, Troy, Ephesus, Patmos (and Cappadocia preferably). It seems like a tall order to get them all in one trip :).

Asked on June 12th, 2024What dietary restrictions can be accommodated?
- Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written June 2024

Jenny
Asked on May 9th, 2024Are there single supplements for solo travelers?
- Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written May 2024
Yes, single supplements are available for solo travelers in private rooms.
- C
Craig
Asked on May 6th, 2024What rating (stars) will the hotels have? Can the diet offered accomodate a pregnant lady (no alcohol, cured/smoked/raw meats and fish, no cheese with moulds, no runny eggs, food generally cooked piping hot, etc)
- Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written May 2024
The hotels that will be used for this service are based on 4-star or special-class boutique hotels. On some tours, lunch is set as a set menu, and on some tours, it is an open buffet. I think that if you remind your guides about your sensitivity regarding Diet during the tours, they will be able to help you. The breakfasts will be served at the hotels and I think they will help you if you inform the hotel reception about your diet sensitivities and the same goes for your cruise
