A day in Cappadocia. - This is a bucket list must! This tour is well organized, our guide was extremely well educated and answered all our questions regarding the region and it's history. Our guide brought us to all the important places that are worth seeing and accommodated us , taking time to enjoy the day. He also brought us to wonderful restaurants where we had a typical Turkish food that was delightful.

Wonderful trip to Istanbul and Cappadocia! - I researched many tour agencies with requested itinerary to include Istanbul and Cappadocia. Our trip was 10 days total with 2 nights/3 days in Cappadocia. Meltem was our tour coordinator and all contact (email, WhatsApp) was through her regarding daily itinerary, arrangements, questions during the trip and even questions after the trip. She was exceptional and available at all times with immediate responses for any issues/questions during the trip. First of all the pricing with this tour group was very competitive and more reasonable than any other tour agency that I researched (for the same itinerary other groups were at least $1000-$2000 more per person). The itinerary was very flexible depending upon personal tastes/requests. All arrangements such as pick up from airports to hotels were very organized and most likely cheaper than trying to do it on your own (avoid taxis at any cost; even Uber will try to scam you). For Istanbul we had a private guide for family of 4 and visited the typical sites: Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Basilica Cistern, Galata Tower, Boat ride on the Bosphorus, Spice Market and Grand Bazaar. According to our own individual request the tour agency helped to arrange visits to Dolmabahce Palace and performance of a Whirling Dervishes Ceremony. Lunch was provided during the full day tours but per our request our guide brought us to one of the best baklava stores in Istanbul (Karakoy Gulluoglu) and one of the best places to buy Turkish delights (HazerBaba in Spice Market). We also asked to go to a local restaurant (near Spice Market - sorry I did not get the name) that served delicious bone broth soup as their specialty. Our guide also gave us names of delicious kebab restaurants that I would HIGHLY recommend (Baral Et & Mangal, Shehzad’s). We also spent 2 night/3 days in Cappadocia which I HIGHLY recommend. The tour agency arranged the flights, car transport to and from the hotel, balloon ride (top 10 balloon ride place in the WORLD). Cappadocia is very unique and made our trip to Türkiye extra special. The guide was excellent and brought us to Goreme Open Air museum, a beautiful coffee/tea shop with a mountain top view and many other places. Although the tour also included trips to a leather shop, ceramic shop and carpet shop (where I am sure commission of sales are transferred to the guide and tour agency) we did not feel pressured to buy anything and enjoyed the information (cooperative of local men/women who benefit from sales, ceramic/carpet making process, etc.) during the visits. Definitely high quality products (Cappadocia is famous for their carpets at more reasonable prices compared with Istanbul. Türkiye is famous for their leather which they export to high end companies) and, of course, we ended up with purchases that we had not planned on buying. Now back in the US we are extremely pleased with our purchases that we got for fair prices (but you have to bargain - even up to half the “discounted” price). Although you could try to arrange all of the above on your own, having a guide and all arrangements made for you (such as airfare between Istanbul and Cappadocia, car transport between airports/hotels, entrance fee to tourist sites paid for ahead of time) and a wealth of information from local guides, makes it all worthwhile. When I did my research calculations I found that doing everything by myself vs paying the tour agency perhaps might have saved me $100-$200 dollars per person - your choice but definitely having the tour agency make arrangements for me was worth it. Thanks to Meltem and Turkey Istanbul Tours for making our trip to Türkiye a memorable one!

Spectacular! - I had an amazing 5 day vacation with Turkey Istanbul Tours. Sibel was the one who assisted me with all my bookings. She was exceptionally helpful which made my solo tour even better. I enjoyed everything about the tour from walking the streets of Istanbul and sight seeing to riding the air balloon over the valleys of Cappadocia. I will definitely be coming back! Thanks guys!

Thank you Ilyas for showing us the best of Cappadocia - Cappadocia is amazing but much more enjoyable with the Best Guide: İlyas or as he is called is Eliazito communicates. Not only does it explain everything with a lot of passion, it always leads us to Top-rated places. It's the second time I've toured with him and I'll ask him to come back while I work. We went as a group of women and had a great time
