- Regina· June 29th, 2024To begin,we feel that we should shower praises on Mustafa Kurt of Travel Talk tours,-our wonderful, kind, caring and efficient tour guide: the best in my 6 decades of travel in all modes.A great combination of facts, humor,helpfulness and always there for our diverse group. The itinerary included long days-some 8 hours on the bus. Wish all the fans were working in the intense heat.The below deck cabins on the gulet were sweltering on some 100 degree F (40+C) days. Our driver was a careful and smooth one, making it easier for us to overcome all those hairpin turns. My 16 y o grandson and I, 80, are so grateful for the opportunity. Again, Mustafa is the best of the best!Show moreTravel Talk commented on this reviewHi Regina, thank you for your review!

- BSBasil· June 13th, 2024I felt the group was to large at 41. Also, stood at hotels with subpar and the Gulet cruise cabins did not have aircon, at 43C it was unbearable to sleep in the cabin.

- AE.Warby· December 6th, 2023I recently completed the ‘Amazing Turkey by Gulet’ and it really was just that - amazing! The 3 days on the Gulet were very easily the highlight (excluding the hot air balloons in Cappadocia of course!) and I would highly recommend this option if you are given a choice!A big contributor to the Gulet being a highlight was the size of the group - a small group of 15 meant everyone got a chance to get to know each other and everyone got along really well!! The size of the overall group was quite overwhelming at times and made it difficult to get to know everyone. The amount of travel time was also very underwhelming and the food stops at service stations weren’t exactly what I expected from Turkish cuisine. Despite these minor flaws, the trip was incredible and I would highly recommend it to anyone!Show moreTrip date: July 2019Review collected by Travel Talk

- AD.Cardamone· December 6th, 2023I'v done three Travel Talk Tours now (Morocco, Egypt and Turkey). All breathtaking experiences, there is no way to compare as people usually ask me 'which one did you like the most?' or 'which tour do you recommend?' My usual response is 'you just have to do them all!' The guides really made sure the tours were engaging, fun, captivating and they all went out of their way to accommodate everybody's needs. They were very knowledgeable in their content and not to mention passionate about their countries which I believed allowed the group to become more engulfed in the experiences and history. I've been with many travel companies and I highly recommend Travel Talk out of all of them. It's an experience you won't regret!Show moreTrip date: July 2019Review collected by Travel Talk

Asked on September 1st, 2025I am interested in the 10 Day Wonders of Turkey package and would like to clarify a few details before booking: For the tour starting on September 13, should I plan to arrive in Turkey on that day, or is it recommended to arrive one or two days earlier? If I arrive one or two days earlier, will you still offer pick-up service? Upon arrival, how will I find the guide who is picking us up? Will the communication be through international phone calls or WhatsApp?
Travel TalkOperator•Written September 2025You do not need to arrive earlier; you are expected to arrive on Day 1 of the tour (September 13). Please note that airport transfer is available on the 1st day of the tour for flights landing in Istanbul between 5:00am and 11:30pm. If you come a day earlier and wish to have the transfer as well, you may booked pre-night accommodation with us. If you choose to book Pre-Accommodation with us, the airport transfer will then be available 24 hours. Once your flights are booked, we kindly ask you to forward us your flight details.
