Best of Turkey by land 12 days. This tour was fantastic, our tour guide Aykut The Best was excellent, funny as f***, very informative. Only one hotel lin Kuadasi let us down., other than that 10 out 10 for accommodation.
Our drivers were great, felt safe the whole time.
The food places that were recommended were spot on, catered for everyone.
Definitely would recommended this tour.

This trip was truly a dream come true. Between the hot air balloon trip in Cappadocia, paragliding in Fethiye and visiting Gallipoli I cannot thing of just one highlight; the entire trip is full of adventures of a lifetime. My one regret for this trip is that I did not book it sooner! So if you’re out there reading this review I could not recommend the Turkey by land Travel Talk tour more highly. Our tour guide Mustafa went absolutely above and beyond and made everyone on the tour feel at home. Mustafa is an exceptionally knowledgeable man, full of information of the historical sites and providing a true local experience as we travelled across the countryside. I can’t wait to book my next trip!

The Best of Turkey by Land tour was an amazing experience, largely owing to our tour guide Aykut.
He was extremely knowledgeable and engaging, adding incredible value over the course of the tour with his anecdotes, insight and personal stories – all communicated with a wonderful sense of humour.
Without Aykut we would not have had such an incredible tour, he went out of his way to show us local gems, the best places and things to eat, ensuring that we experienced the Turkish culture to the best of his ability.
He was also always ready to have a chat, answer questions and assist with issues, whether related to the tour or not.
A very entertaining and personable guide, Aykut has set a high bar for any future tours.

We completed the “Best of Turkey by Land” tour on June 15, 2022 and absolutely loved our travel experience. It was the best and most memorable tour that I have ever taken and Mustafa was the best tour guide that I’ve ever had the pleasure of traveling with. Mustafa was outstanding in every way – he was very knowledgeable, professional, experienced, friendly, considerate, caring, kind, protective and had a great sense of humor!
It was our first time traveling to Turkey and everything was exceptional, the itinerary, the sites, the food, the culture and meeting nice people.
Mustafa, stay awesome my friend!
