My experiences with the tour company were likely the most fulfilling and most affordable way for me to experience not only the scores of ancient sites we visited, but also Türkiye and its culture and history. Our guide Serdar went above and beyond his responsibilities and provided me and my fellow students with a detailed and in depth understanding of every site and town we visited. Beyond being informative Serdar was exceedingly warm and forthcoming about his own opinions and experiences in regards to growing up in Türkiye, which for me was genuinely heartwarming. I don’t think I speak for just myself when I say we were all sad to see him part ways with our company on the last day, and I personally wish I could have spoken with him more. Our driver Ali was equally warm and amenable as he catered to many of our needs throughout the trip whether they be unexpected or basic, the drive was always smooth and timely. Having the security in mind of an itinerary and knowing I was in such good hands made it to where I could truly soak in what I was experiencing as much as possible and I will forever be grateful for that.

If there ever was a true 5 star experience, this was it! We had such a fabulous two week trip ! From Istanbul to Ephesus and Kusadasi, from Pommaccle to Antalya, and from Cappadocia back to Istanbul, we experienced so much ! And we owe it all to Meltem as she worked with us to plan it out and then made all the connections that made our stay stress free. All the guides, the drivers, meals, airport connections were all handled by Meltem !! Right from the start she was so good at responding to all our questions and making suggestions where needed. Then once we were in Turkey she made sure all the pieces came together and all we had to do is receive her text each evening !! Meltem is truly a professional and so rewarding to work with!!! As I said, an undeniable 5 star!!

Amazing time in Ephesus with our guide Nafia! Everywhere we went other guides told us she was the best and we believe it. We learned so much and enjoyed our time in Turkey.

My husband and I had an amazing day with Nafia - she is fantastic!! What an amazing guide … so knowledgeable, passionate, thoughtful, and patient. I feel like I have a new friend … it was hard to say goodbye. There was so much more than just Ephesus- which is fantastic- locally immersive experiences and a wonderful traditional Turkish lunch :) Thank you Nafia!!

14 in our group. Visited, Cappadoccia, Kusadasi, Euphesus, Pamukkale, Istanbul and Bursa. Hakan did a great job in arranging our tour from start to finish. Tour guides were amazing especially Oguzhan in Cappadoccia and Osman in Istanbul. They were very knowledgeable and courteous and friendly. The buses were very comfortable. Everyone was on time, the buses, guides. Did not have to wait on long lines. Our tour was very well planned. I would recommend them to anyone planning to go to Turkey

Our family had the best experience in Turkey. I can highly recommend Turkey by Locals based on our family experience. We immensely appreciate how the company organized our 21 day private tour. When we arrived to Izmir Airport, we were even welcomed and then transferred with a private limousine to our following activities. During our overall stay, we had exceptionally knowledgeable tour guides about the history and culture of the country with proficient English. We visited historical sites and iconic landscapes of Turkey. We had the most amazing service and comfort during our trip to Ephesus, house of Virgin Mary, Pamukkale, Hierapolis Ancient City, Cappadocia, İstanbul, etc. I also wanted to point out the amazing gastronomy and culinary culture of the country. I wanted to recognize Hakan Dursun- Turkey İstanbul Tours who was responsible of organizing this outstanding trip for my family. I would defiantly recommend this experience.
