    I'm so glad I booked Turkey in Depth and travelled on 23/08/2025 to 6/09/2025 with our exceptional Tour Leader, Zafer Yucedag. I decided to book the tour because it covers a lot of interesting and historical places. I learnt so much about Turkey from our Tour Leader. His in-depth knowledge of the history of Turkey is truly a gift to his group. The itinerary is well thought of. The areas covered by the Tour is vast so there were days where long travels and early starts were necessary and plenty of breaks were provided. Zafer made sure everyone's safety and needs were attended to. He made the group was as comfortable as could be. Not only he knows so much about the cities we went to including where to eat and suggestions on where to buy our souvenirs from the locals. Zafer was very professional in handling the issues with our driver. I highly recommended this tour. It truly is an amazing tour especially if you are lucky to get Zafer as your Tour Leader. Thank you so much, Zafer. Let me know if you have another tour in Turkey.
