Fantastic Sahaba and Ertugral tour!!! To have a good tour guide such as Ugur was the unexpected highlight of the journey. Importantly we learned a lot and really enjoyed learning about the various Sahabas. My wife, mom, three sisters, two brothers, and I were mesmerized. The stories and enjoyed visiting the masjids and graves of all these great Sahabas, that played their part in making Islam successful. One of the great stories and masjid to visit was Underground Masjid (Yeralti Camii) SubhanAllah. The feeling and stories behind the graves were amazing mashAllah! We also did a private tour to visit Ertugrul Ghazi’s tomb in Sogut then we visited Bursa and Inegol. Alhumdullilah was arranged really well from the hotel at 6:15 and we arrived back at 9:45. ToursCE team was guiding us all the time with patient and kindness. Keep in mind; it is essential that everyone stuck to the timings on the tours especially if we were to visit all graves and pay respects. Your team did a very well job mashAllah so thanks.

It was I and my friends’ first visit to Turkey. The tour package could not have been better. The historical knowledge and friendliness of our guide were super. It has been a perfect introduction to Turkish culture, Islamic Sights of Istanbul, and history as well as a fun time. The food recommendations were fantastic. We could not finish everything so we will definitely visit Turkey again with Turkey ToursCE.com team.
