5.00We loved this tour! The company were flexible, helpful and quick to respond to queries. The tour is extremely good, visiting the sites and staying in some varied and wonderful places and hotels with a range of cultural experiences. Our guide Ozgur was the one who made the tour so meaningful and was wonderful. He quickly understood our family, gave helpful historical information, and was a great guide for all aspects of the tour. We like learning about the 7 churches and other cultural sites we visited. It was an amazing tour we would thoroughly recommend.
