5.00I gave Metin and his team 2 weeks notice to provide me with a "custom" 9 day tour of Turkey. Daring- I know!! I got prompt service with multiple ways to contact them. They handled all of my questions/concerns/indecisions professionally. Everything was carryied out to perfection!! I encountered so many travelers associated with other tour groups who had problems that I'm even more grateful.
