    We recently returned from our group tour to Greece and Turkey and while there were certainly memorable moments, there were also some areas that could have been improved. Some of the hotels provided were very good and comfortable, which we appreciated. However, a few of the accommodations did not meet the standard we were expecting for this type of trip. It would be helpful if hotel quality could be more consistent throughout the itinerary. In terms of meals, we enjoyed the 5 included dinners in Turkey, but we felt that it would have been more balanced to include at least a few meals—either lunch or dinner—while in Greece as well. One major point of concern was the travel time between cities. We spent two full days on the road, which felt like a loss of valuable touring time. These long bus journeys were tiring and left very little opportunity for sightseeing or rest. Lastly, we only had one full day in Istanbul, which was not enough to truly explore and enjoy such a rich and vibrant city. Many members of our group were disappointed that we couldn’t spend more time there, especially since it’s such a highlight of the region. Overall, we appreciated the effort that went into planning this trip, but we believe that with better time distribution, improved hotel selection, and a more balanced meal plan, the experience could have been significantly better.

    Naomi

    Asked on July 24th, 2024

    Do you provide Porter to carry our luggage from ferry cruise to transportation and hotel people carry luggage to room

    Transport
    • Fez TravelOperatorWritten July 2024

      We don't provide porter but during the transfer, your driver would help as much as he can. At the hotels there are usually staff to help you carry the luggage after you check in.

    Dennis

    Asked on August 5th, 2023

    How large is the boat for the 1st part of the trip? How bad are the sea waves in terms of sea sickness?

    Transport
    • Fez TravelOperatorWritten August 2023

      Usually the route from Piraeus port to Santorini port is performed by Blue Star Delos boat. Vessel Features: Length (m): 145,90 / Width (m): 23,2 / Cabins: 32 / Passenger capacity: 2.400 / Garage capacity: 430 vehicles or 600 lane meters. As for the sea waves it depends on the weather but as it's not an ocean I assume it wouldn't be so rough.

    Trevor

    Asked on January 17th, 2023

    Is it possible to make the tour longer or shorter? How is it going to work? How much more for staying longer in Istanbul Hotel we should pay? How much less for making the trip shorter, if possible?

    Accommodation
    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • Fez TravelOperatorWritten January 2023

      It is possible to make the tour longer by adding a few more nights after the tour in Istanbul but it's not possible to make it shorter; i.e. if you don't want to skip any highlights. By skipping some of the highlights included in Colours of Mediterranean Tour in Turkey, you can make it shorter but not sure which you may want to skip. I'd recommend not to, as all are worth visiting.

      Trevor

      TravelerWritten January 2023

      How early do I need my hotel rooms for extended stay in Istanbul? Are the rate of the rooms on sale till Feb 15th? Would you please clarify how much will it be for double occupancy with breakfast in Canadian dollar? How early do we need to book the rooms? Can we change the reservation of the rooms when we got closer to our trip? Would you please provide me the cost for the room for Athens if we arrive one day early?

    • Fez TravelOperatorWritten January 2023

      It's possible to make changes twice and we'd be happy to help if there's availability. Post accommodation in Istanbul per night: 1 double room including breakfast - 210 CAD. Pre accommodation in Athens per night: 1 double room including breakfast - 250 CAD.

      TravelerWritten August 2023

      As we are getting closer to our trip, I was wondering if we as American and Canadian need visa for Greece or Turkey. Please advise us what we should do.

    • Fez TravelOperatorWritten August 2023

      You can obtain online visa on evisa gov tr. I cannot type the website name here as it'll be deleted but if you add www and dots in between the words, that's the website name.

      Trevor

      TravelerWritten September 2023

      I was wondering if we need to book Balloon ride in Cappadocia ahead of time or we can do it where we are there. Do you recommend to book anything ahead of time?

    • Fez TravelOperatorWritten September 2023

      With all our tours visiting Cappadocia, we pre-book hot air balloon ride which you can book and confirm with your guide when you are in Turkey. It is advised to do so as sometimes it gets cancelled due to weather conditions. It's best to book closer to the day you're in Cappadocia.
