We found a trusted and experienced travel partner in Turkey. I recommend working with Erkan and Tource. We worked with Erkan in scheduling and customizing our 13 day trip to Turkey. Erkan was very responsive and very attentive to the details. We finally ended up scheduling and booking a 13-day private tour with Erkan. As we got closer to the date of travel, the pandemic turned ugly again and we had to cancel 9 days before our travel. Erkan was very mentality and was able to postpone the entire trip without any penalties and without any problems. I will certainly travel with Erkan as soon as on my next vacation.

Turkey was one of the countries that are on top of our visiting places. That is such an amazing and culture enriched country. I and all my friends planned to have our vacation here but days prior were still not sure if we were going to be able to fly out. Even at just the last minute, Coskun and his team helped us out so much. Coskun was very accommodating. They helped us to have hassle free tours, catered to our requests too much especially that is within our budget considering that was less than a week before we decided to go. It was hassle free and memorable Turkey vacation. We will definitely come back and still contact them to help us explore the rest of the beautiful country.

In the beginning, I just wanted to book an Istanbul old city tour. I wanted a guided tour because I love history. I was a little nervous as it was my first trip to your country. After talked with Erkan, I decided to book a 12-day Turkey package tour. He was very helpful in planning the tour package. It changed a lot of parts for me. He kindly answered every question I asked and was very patient. The tours, transfers, hotels, and all services were provided wonderfully and on time. Best of all, I had a travel consultant with whom I could contact via whatsapp at any time. The feeling of being able to reach 3 different numbers in case of need gave me a lot of confidence. Your guides were very knowledgeable, kind, and helpful. A heartfelt thank you to all your travel team.

Unbelievable experience, amazing tour company, and tour guides! We came across this travel company on tripadvisor a day or so before we flying to Istanbul. I read the reviews and check their web then decided to send a note on their whatsapp. Got the answer at the right time. They had great customer service from the minute I made an inquiry into their tours. On the first day, the guide and their service exceeded my expectations. They had the knowledge to share information all the time and the manner in which they shared was so beautiful. Every story was told in flawless detail and they also gave us time to do explore each place. That was an experience I’ll cherish forever. The tour company wasn’t only helpful during the tour but also helped us find a good place to eat after the excursion was finished. They went far beyond what they had to do on tours. We strongly recommend that you book tours 100% with this company.
