- Nas· August 13th, 2025I did the Turkey Classics Tour booked through TourRadar and had a wonderful experience overall. The itinerary was well-planned, covering many of Turkey’s most iconic sites, including Istanbul, Cappadocia, Pamukkale, and Ephesus. Each destination offered something unique, and I felt like I got a great overview of the country’s rich history, stunning landscapes, and vibrant culture. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure everyone was comfortable and informed. The coach was modern and comfortable, which made the longer travel days much easier to handle. Accommodation was generally good, with a mix of hotels ranging from decent to very nice. Meals included were tasty, and there were plenty of chances to sample local cuisine. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that a couple of stops felt a bit rushed. However, these were minor issues in an otherwise memorable and well-executed trip. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Turkey for the first time!Show more
- Vicki· July 16th, 2025We 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 7Show more
- Noreen· July 16th, 2025I had an incredible time on the Magic Carpet Tour — it was the perfect blend of culture, history, and adventure. From the warm hospitality of the guides to the breathtaking views, every part of the tour felt thoughtfully planned. I especially loved exploring the ancient sites and local markets, and the storytelling throughout made the journey come alive. This tour gave me a deep appreciation for Turkey’s beauty and heritage. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a meaningful and memorable experience!Show more
