    The best thing about this tour was our guide, Barbaros. He was informative, caring, thoughtful, and spoke excellent English. The tour was well organised, and the itinerary gave us a comprehensive overview of Turkey. We never once felt rushed. My wife had a fever in Istanbul after the first day of the tour

  • K

    Kimberly

    Asked on October 6th, 2025

    I see on Day 4 there is the option for the Hot Air balloon flights. What time of the day is it? And does it impact the other activities of the day? Only 2 if the 4 guests want the hot air ballon flight.

    Tour Details
    • Tour Altinkum TravelOperatorWritten October 2025

      The hot air balloon can be arranged for the morning of Day 4. Since all flights take place at sunrise, it will not affect your tour schedule. The price varies depending on the season — for September, it is 350 USD per person including pick up and drop off.

Also, do we have a tour guide escorting us through the entire trip, or if not, who would be the best person to contact in case we miss a flight or we don't meet up with tour leader for the day?
