Turkey visiting from the United States. Our tours, guides, and all the arrangements were amazing in our itinerary. Local tour guides were very knowledgeable and had an answer to every question we asked. They know EVERYTHING about Turkey and day tour sights. Pick up from our hotels for the tours and transfers were on time. The drivers were safe and reliable. Would highly recommend booking with tours by CE. We had a fantastic trip!

My wife and I did the Agean seaside tour in Turkey. It just so happened it we had small groups which made our trip very enjoyable, like a private tour. The local tourist tour guides were great and very knowledgeable. They would go the extra mile to ensure our safety and satisfaction at all times. Their driver was excellent. Although they did not speak much English they were very caring and obliging. All their team took great pride in what he did and was very professional. All of the hotels used were great except. All in all, that was a memorable experience and a great trip. Thanks, guys, well-done team :).
