The Best Guided Tour of Turkey
25-Jul-2023
This trip was an amazing experience, well organized and very detailed to please the customers and see as much as possible.
Ahmet is an amazing guide, he has a lot of history knowledge and he makes you have an amazing experience during your tour. We travel all over Turkey with him, and not only he makes sure you have the best experience but at the same time he goes above and beyond to provide the best accommodation for a person who has limited mobility, being sure always a wheelchair was available for me to enjoy the trip. He is an amazing guide and an incredible person. The tour company was best of best, and we all highly recommend
