This all-inclusive, private, guided tour is an easy add-on to a Ski Vacation at Palandoken!

Your guide and driver will pick you up after breakfast and head toward the fortresses of Aziziye and Mecidiye. The Abdurrahman tomb and infamous "mystery road" will round out our morning as you head towards the Three Tombs. You will tour a 300-year-old Ottoman home before trying the local eats downtown for lunch. After you've recharged with some delicious local delicacies, see Ulu Mosque, The Twin Minaret Medressa, and the Erzurum Castle. Don't miss the incredible view of the city from the clock tower inside the castle! In Turkey, it's always tea-time. Sit inside of "The Erzurum Houses", Ottoman homes that have been converted into a museum and restaurant and soak in the history and culture. From there, visit an incredible Caravan Saray that was used along the Silk Road! Before heading back to your hotel, you'll stop at a famous local restaurant to have Erzurum's Cag Kebap for dinner.

Touring Erzurum city and getting the historical perspective of the area made our trip so much richer.

The guides Vahit and Şeyma were definitely a joy to be with. They were open to what we wanted to do and when … like eating, type of food, how much time we wanted to stay at different sites, etc. I enjoyed hearing the history of the area. The guides were knowledgeable and patient in answering all the many questions we had! Also, we booked last minute( as in 2 days before), Zach was gracious and so willing to go the extra mile to get us on a tour. The van we traveled in was comfortable and perfect for our group: 6 adults and a 3 yo. Make sure to wear good walking shoes and dress for the weather! Thankfully we were prepared and the experience was great.
Fascinating

I thought this tour was especially enjoyable. The city is beautiful in the winter with the mountains as the backdrop for most of the tour. Everything from the old castle walls to the ancient mosques was beautiful and the tour guide was really helpful with any and all history questions.
