Ten days is the most popular length for a complete first trip. The grand circuit of a 10 day Turkey tour leaves Istanbul for Gallipoli and Troy, follows the Aegean to Ephesus and Pamukkale, rests on the Mediterranean in Antalya and ends in Cappadocia.
Other ten-day routes keep three nights in Istanbul and fly to Cappadocia, Ephesus and Pamukkale, with or without beach days in Antalya, and one starts from Izmir for travellers arriving on the Aegean coast. A history-rich route also visits Pergamon on the way south.
