Pearls of Turkey

My favourite part of the journey was the knowledge and friendliness, tact and professionalism of the guides. Each historic site visited was expkained in detail, whilst they also respects if we wanted to explore and jyst feel the energies of the place. We were given choices of amazing authentic food experiences along the way. Traveling was in comfortable minivans with aircon, and the assistance given at the airports for internal flights were priceless.

Excellent tour of Turkey

We just came back from our trip and we are so happy we chose this 8 day tour of Turkey. Sedef, our tour coordinator, was absolutely amazing! She was available for us all the time, answered our questions quickly, and made accommodations for us whenever we needed it. We highly recommend this experience. Thank you for an amazing trip to Turkey!!

The Pearls of Turkey was extended to include the amazing Gobleki Tepe in the far East. We really experienced Turkey 🇹🇷

We had the most amazing time in Turkey! Our guides were super knowledgeable and friendly. Metin on the biggest part of our tour and Shukran in Cappadoccia were just the best!!

A wonderful experience, we have learned much about Turkia and its immense historical and cultural baggage

The experience gained on this magical journey to the bowels of our civilization has been profound, with true knowledge of history thanks to our guide Emre. I have travelled quite a lot and this time I have been surprised xq we have been fortunate to have an authentic scholar, Mr. Elmer. It is worth adding that Emre and driver Okra made our trip an unforgettable experience. If you are looking for a learning journey in an easy to understand way, taking home the desire to continue learning, with simple, friendly people, willing to serve you at all times, this is the company you should choose.

Unforgettable Turkey with Tour Altinkum

Visited three cities in the tour. They were three totally different experiences. Cappadocia was wonderful. Try to spend a day more as Kusadasi to enjoy the stay at wonderful Efe boutique.
