- AKAmanda· May 15th, 2025Tour Altinkum answered my initial queries about the tour very quickly. The booking process was easy and information regarding the tour was comprehensive. There was no waiting around for pick ups etc. Tour guide – Mert was brilliant, couldn’t have asked for a better guide, he is very knowledgeable, friendly, easy to talk to, has the patience of a saint and very kindly made sure that a vegan meal was made me for at lunch or found out what was suitable for me to eat at buffets. Minibus driver – again he was excellent, always on time and waiting to pick us up at each stop. The tour itself had a lot of travelling which I knew before we booked, there were a couple of places I personally wouldn’t have bothered with such as the House of the Virgin Mary and others I wish we had had more time in such as the underground city, Hierapolis, Goreme and Ephesus. The hotels were good, would have liked to stay in Kusadasi for another night as the view from the room was great. The breakfasts were mostly pretty good apart from the cave house, I was very limited for choice but again personal preference. Lunches were great thanks to Mert, I had been a bit worried that I was going to be hungry a lot of the time but that wasn’t the case at all I really enjoyed the food. Would I use this tour company again, most definitely. They are very well organised and professional. I can’t fault the trip apart from the personal preference of wanting to spend more time in some places and having quite a long wait of 3 hours on the last day for our pick up to the airport to go back to Istanbul, would have been better if we had been kept occupied a bit longer. We had a fantastic time and my bucket list item of Cappadocia has now been ticked off.Show moreTrip date: May 2025
- RVRachael· April 13th, 2025This tour was an absolute PERFECT intro to Turkey for me. The length of the tour, the amount of information, the amount of touring vs free time. It was ideal. The group is tiny (9 of us) so we could have people to talk to and have lunch with and then go off on our own to galavant around Turkiye. Efe was brilliant, he knew so much about his country and the rich history that it weaves. Even our weather cooperated for the most part!! The booking was smooth, the transfers were seamless, and the communication was truly easy. 10/10 would recommend.Show more

Asked on February 26th, 2025I am a solo traveller. I am worried about the pickup at the hotel in Istanbul for the trip. Which areas should I book the hotel in? Will there be other people also during the pick-up? On the return, will you drop me to a different hotel? How many hours by bus to Cappadocchia where you have optional flight. I will need a single room. Will you give me a discount on it?
- Tour Altinkum TravelOperator•Written February 2025
Pick up is available from Taksim, Besiktas, Sultanahmet hotels for this service. Return transfer can be arranged to different hotel in same areas. Solo Travelers need to book 'single room' and you can check price for single room on website. Drive from Antalya to Cappadocia is approx 10h but there will be Mevlana Museum and Sultanhan Cerevansaral visits, lunch will be provided in Konya. The land drive will be by tour bus and the tour guide will at the bus.
