    The tour was amazing and allowed me to explore a number of Turkey highlights in a short time. It was well organized and convenient. I don't like long drives so a flying tour was perfect for me. The tour guides in Istanbul and Pamukkale were great. The guide in Cappadocia was good as well. While the tour is advertised is having 4 star hotels, it definitely doesn't. That was disappointing. The hotels are clearly 3 stars based on appearance, room size and amenities. This can be confirmed through a google search. The Antalya hotel was particularly poor and had a very low cleanliness standard. The tour started on a high with Istanbul and Pamukkale, but turned sour in Antalya. The waterfalls in Antalya were really nice, but based on the overall experience I would skip Antalya on this tour. The highlight of the tour for me was the hot air balloon experience in Cappadocia, which I booked separately at a much lower price. It was really amazing.

    Overall, a good experience! The first time I had visited Turkey was with a large group in a bus, so a lot of time was spent in transportation. Here, having only internal flights was a nice change, although some evenings flights led to a lot of waiting time at airports. The guides in Antalya, Istanbul and Izmir were great, less so in Cappadocia. The hotels were good to great, especially Recital hotel in Istanbul, but the one in Antalya was a bit dirty, room was not cleaned and the staff was hostile. The food was pretty good overall, although a few of the lunches were bland tourist-friendly food. Highlights : overall logistics and communication via WhatsApp : wow, great job!, old town Antalya and Cappadocia, and Recital hotel staff, location and food.
