That was my dream trip to Turkey and had a wonderful adventure in Turkey. I am truly delighted by the exceptional work done by the Toursce team in Turkey. It was my first time travel to this country. Not only was he very supportive of all my needs, but especially during COVID, it was helpful to have guidance regarding entering the country and tourist sights protocols. I highly recommend Toursce travel Turkey and will use them again in a heartbeat if I return to Turkey.

We booked the tour thru my friend’s travel agency in our country. The staff of the travel agency was very helpful, knowledgeable, and courteous. We had communicated with Coskun and Erkan from home and they were punctual in their responses. According to our request upon our arrival in Istanbul, they even gave us a phone with a charger and a list of emergency numbers in the destinations we could call. Since our company is always punctual, we did not need it. But we met many tourists who needed such numbers at airports and hotels. Some were waiting to be met at the airport, and some were waiting for the tour, and none of them had a phone number to call. Their contact number was not responding to them either. We were very lucky. Whenever we needed it, we were communicating with Coskun and Erkan via WhatsApp. Special thanks to you. The folks who picked us up at the airports and the hotels, the local guides, the transports, and the hotels were all faultless! In many other countries around the world where I have taken guided tours, an annoying aspect has been visiting stores/workshops. Yes, Turkey was no exception. The Ceramic and carpet shops were worth a visit but can not say the same about leather and onyx stops. As you know, everyone’s interests can be different. We understand the economics of this plan but if we had an option, I would rather opt-out. Though there was no compulsion and they even said if you do not want to, do not enter. But we are on the same group tour. Overall, a very satisfactory tour services in Turkey. Had we known about this, we may have booked with you directly. Thank you very much for everything. Sure we will come back to your fabulous country.

Hotels were of different types of quality. The best one in Cappadocia and Kusadasi 5* worst was in Bodrum 3* including breakfast. Day time tours were good and interesting from location and with different guide best one I enjoy in Cappadocia, Ephesus, Gallipoli, and Troy. All transfer services from hotels to stations or airport was excellent. Was very helpful receiving updates about the trip every day from tour coordinator Tuna, or you can get an answer from him about the trip anytime. Big thank you to him!

Our group trip was cut short due to Covid19 and we only made it to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Pamukkale, and Ephesus but even then what a great trip this was. If you are thinking of booking the tour, then you must ensure that you have enough time for your Turkey trip and contact on Whatsapp with toursce.com travel team for your tailor-made travel plan. They are is simply incredible, super organized, and knowledgeable. We went early March and the weather was great for most activities except it was a bit cold down the Mediterranean coast. Our highlights were the hot air balloon over Cappadocia and also, Whirling Dervish Ceremony in Istanbul. All the tours are well organized with sightseeing and the tour guides are perfect.
