## Testimonials

- **Yvette Spivock** (visited Visited Turkey in May 2026 for an extraordinary private journey through Turkey’s most iconic destinations, experiencing outstanding service, expert guides, carefully curated experiences, and genuine Turkish hospitality throughout.): Turkey is an incredible place, and we feel so fortunate to have traveled with Turkey Tour Organizers. Erkan helped us design a personalized itinerary that included all the highlights we hoped to see within our limited time. He also added special stops along the way that we never would have discovered on our own.

From the moment we arrived at the airport and met our driver, Arda, we felt completely taken care of. He shared fascinating history and stories throughout our journey, immediately making us feel welcome and at ease. We also had time to explore independently, which we appreciated.

In Istanbul, our guide Burcin showed us the city in a way we could never have experienced on our own. His enthusiasm and deep knowledge brought the history to life, and we found ourselves happily going off on interesting tangents with him that we only wished we had more time to pursue.

Before our departure from Istanbul, Arda treated us to one last special stop to see the ancient city walls from a unique vantage point, offering insight into their construction and history. We then flew to Izmir, where we met our final guide, Alijan.

After an unforgettable day exploring Ephesus, Alijan led us on a spectacular driving tour through some of Turkey’s most stunning regions. From Sirince and Pamukkale to coastal towns, ancient Roman sites, volcanic landscapes, and a beautiful valley hike, every stop was memorable. The journey culminated in Cappadocia, truly the “diamond in the tiara” of the trip. Alijan was engaging, knowledgeable, and personable, making each experience both fun and meaningful. He also ensured we had time to relax, enjoy Turkish tea, and savor excellent meals along the way.

Erkan checked in with us regularly throughout the trip to make sure everything—from hotels to daily plans—was perfect. We even had the pleasure of meeting him in Cappadocia. The hotels were thoughtfully selected and consistently excellent, and we never felt rushed or overwhelmed, allowing us to fully appreciate each destination.

Both Burcin and Alijan added thoughtful personal touches, always accommodating our interests, whether it was visiting an extra site or trying a local restaurant. One particularly meaningful moment came at the end of our journey: after I mentioned how much I liked Alijan’s shirt and wanted to find one for my son, I was unable to locate it anywhere. To my surprise, before we left Turkey, Alijan and Erkan had specially ordered one and presented it to me as a gift.

It is these kinds of thoughtful gestures and attention to detail that truly set Turkey Tour Organizers apart. We cannot recommend them highly enough.
- **Jenny Gardiner** (visited Visited Turkey in May 2026 for an unforgettable adventure, experiencing the country’s rich history, warm hospitality, breathtaking landscapes, and perfectly organized private tours.): After decades of travelling, this was the first time I used a Tour Organizer. I thought about how much I wanted to see and understand, that I didn’t speak the language and that I can get a bit anxious with covering all the details. What a treat! For the first time I had no stress about the actual getting around so I was able to thoroughly enjoy the country. My travel partner and I had zero tensions because it was all handled so well (including the need to see a doctor) and had a lovely time together.

And what a country! So much good stuff to see and experience. To land in the hands of Kadir and Erkan, the humble and knowledgeable owners of Turkey Tour Organizers, we totally lucked out. They both are travellers themselves and were guides for years before starting their company so they understand what travellers need.

They chose the perfect itinerary for us – not too fast paced but seeing everything we wanted to see. It was easy over e-mails to arrange the details with them when deciding what to see. They had timely and knowledgeable responses to questions. In addition to Istanbul there were 3 other areas we wanted to see – Mt. Nemrut, Ephesus/Gocek and Cappadocia. So there were some two flight days but they were easy – no early pickups, easy transfers, short flights.

At the end of each day they would What’s Ap us the details for the next day: pick-up time, name and phone number of driver, name and phone number of guide, plane boarding passes, expected timelines.

They picked amazing hotels very suited to our needs including historic luxury, country garden estate and ocean view modern.

The 3 different guides they arranged (3 days in Istanbul, 2 days around Effesus, and 3 days in Cappadocia) all had over 15 years of experience. Unending knowledge of their country both historically and present day. Took us to authentic yummy lunch places. And they knew how to get past most lines. They were all historians that love their country.

One of the highlights for me was cooking with a local family. The turks are a warm and friendly nation and I felt that we didn’t just see great things, we felt the pulse of this country.

I had been wanting to see Turkey since my 20’s and now as I turn 60, I had an adventure of a lifetime. I highly recommend and thank Turkey Tour Organizers.
- **Gendie Somerville** (visited Visited Turkey in May 2026 for a magical 19-day journey through Eastern Türkiye, discovering ancient history, vibrant culture, and unforgettable off-the-beaten-path experiences along the way.): My husband and I have just spent a truly magical 19 days touring East Turkiye. Kadir did an amazing job in organizing a trip focusing on our interests of history, culture and environment. He was super responsive to all our needs, both in advance planning and on the road. Our guide in Cappadocia, Baris, was outstanding, and we were privileged to have the charming and knowledgeable Kadir look after us from there to Kars. Kadir took us off the beaten track for special experiences (who else has been to a major cattle and sheep sales yard!) and he gave us plenty of time to explore historical sites and museums. I can't speak highly enough of the organization, responsiveness and personalisation of dealing with Kadir and Turkey Tour Organiser. Spread the word that they're outstanding!
- **Wendy Mertens** (visited Visited Turkey in May 2026 for a tailor-made journey through Istanbul, Cappadocia, Konya, and Antalya, enjoying expert guides, seamless logistics, and personalized support every step of the way.): We had a fantastic trip through Istanbul, Cappadocia, Konya and Antalya with Turkey Tour Organizer. We found them online based on positive reviews, and although it felt like a bit of a gamble at first, it turned out to be an excellent choice.
From start to finish, everything was very well organized. The entire team was not only professional and attentive, but also genuinely kind and wonderful people to be around. A special thanks as well to our drivers — Arda in Istanbul and Mehmet in Antalya — who were always punctual, friendly, and made every transfer easy and comfortable.
A special thanks to our guides, Burcin and Ali. Their knowledge, enthusiasm and personal approach really made a difference. They brought the rich history, culture and stunning landscapes to life, all while keeping everything relaxed and enjoyable.
We also very much appreciated the behind-the-scenes support from Kadir. He was available 24/7, checked in regularly, and made sure everything ran perfectly. His responsiveness and personal attention gave us real peace of mind throughout the trip.
Turkey Tour Organizer delivers a high-quality, well-organized travel experience with a very human and personal touch. We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a worry-free and memorable journey.
- **Bernard Sirois** (visited Visited Turkey in March 2026 for a 3-week tailor-made journey combining private guided touring and a self-drive adventure across Istanbul, Trabzon, Cappadocia, Ephesus, and the stunning Mediterranean coast.): To say that my wife and I were completely satisfied with our 3-week trip to Turkey as organized by Turkey Tour Organizer, specifically Erkan Dulger, would be an understatement. Erkan is the definition of ‘attention to detail’ as applied to every aspect of the trip which was a hybrid directed and self-driving tour.

Starting with the planning stage of one month, we were asked several pertinent questions (by email and WhatsApp) regarding what we had hoped to see and do on this trip. An initial itinerary was presented very quickly which was followed by several discussions and changes to achieve the final itinerary. Rather than feel like all our requested changes were an imposition, it was apparent that Erkan welcomed as much input as possible to ensure we would get the ideal trip. The final itinerary included some drivers, guides, domestic flights and the final 2 weeks driving ourselves. The pdf itinerary included the names and contact details for all persons, hotels, flights and car rental. It included recommended routes for driving with hyper links to google maps for all routes and destinations. Suggested sites along the routes were also included with h-links.

Exceptional points:
• Being greeted as soon as we exited the baggage pick-up on arrival in Istanbul by the smiling Arda Irkekli who also drove us on 3 more occasions by the end of our trip. He is very knowledgeable of the city and is eager to identify and provide background information along the routes. He altered routes to our destinations to ensure we saw more of the city.
• Our guide on the first day in Istanbul, Burcin Kahraman, was extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of the history of the city and sites. He was captivating in his explanations clearly enjoying sharing his expert knowledge with us. He also made it a point to identify other sites of interest we could consider as well as places to eat and shop for authentic Turkish experiences for our remaining days in Istanbul.
• To ensure our quick trip to Trabzon was most rewarding, Emre Ayyildiz joined the driver to greet us at the airport and act as guide. A proud resident of Trabzon, he showed us some of the highlights and even helped Mary haggle for some scarves at the market. He was a delightful guide.
• We were fortunate to have Erkan greet us at the airport in Ankara and be with us for the subsequent three days in Cappadocia. Besides a wealth of background knowledge, he knew when to visit what sites to avoid the larger tour groups and get the maximum value from each visit. His friendly approach made for a stress-free visit throughout our stay. Even after we left on our self-driven tour for the remaining 2 weeks, he was in frequent contact to ensure all was going well.
• Our visit to Ephesus was with Tugrul Sokmen, historian, philosopher and all-round nice guy. His knowledge and perspectives were totally captivating and superior to other guided tours I happen to overhear. He pointed out details that were fascinating and likely overlooked by others. He paid close consideration to our expressed attention suggesting appropriate times to take a break.

To conclude, the hotels arranged by Erkan were all exceptional. He ensured they were all in the old sections of town so we could walk to most sites. Sea view rooms were booked where available. His favourite drive along the Mediterranean was ours as well. He even recommended we arrive at our hotel after our longest day of travel in time to see a beautiful sunset. He also arranged for us to drop off our rental at the outskirts of Istanbul and have Arda pick us up there so we wouldn’t have to drive in this hectic city. Erken will do whatever is necessary to ensure clients have an amazing experience.
- **Mujtaba Khambatti** (visited Visited Turkey in February 2026 with his family for a private historical journey across Istanbul, Ephesus, and Pergamon.): We worked with Erkan at Turkey Tour Organizer to plan a private February trip for our family (including our 13-year-old son and accommodations for my wife’s back). From the first conversation, Erkan was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly thoughtful in designing a deeply immersive historical itinerary.
In Istanbul, Burchin — a student of Hittite history — brought extraordinary depth, flexibility, and warmth to our days. In Ephesus and Pergamon, Tugrul made ancient history feel alive with his storytelling and personality. Transportation, hotels, and logistics were seamless throughout.
The experience was flexible, educational, comfortable, and unforgettable. Highly recommend.
- **Christopher Andrews** (visited Visited Turkey in December 2025 for a 12-day private family tour covering Istanbul, Cappadocia, and several of Turkey’s most iconic historical and natural sites.): We had such an amazing family vacation in Turkey and Ali Can was the perfect guide for our 12 day adventure. He coordinated a local guide for us in Istanbul, who was an expert in the history, the culture, the food, and the architecture. Ali Can then met us in Cappadocia and personally guided us through carved out cave cities, horseback and ATV rides, amazing ancient historical sites, hot springs and a hot air balloon ride, tasty local cuisine, tailored lodging, and more. We knew this trip was gonna be incredible, but the experience surpassed all of our expectations. Ali Can is a kind, thoughtful, heartfelt, and knowledgeable guide. We couldn’t recommend him more highly.
- **Jonathan Grunzweig** (visited Visited Turkey in November 2025 as a couple on a fully customized private tour.): My wife and I cannot speak highly enough of Erkan and his team. Maybe you can find someone with similar levels of PHD-type knowledge of history, culture and lore, and maybe you can even find someone matching the enormous familiarity with all locales we sought to experience, but what I believe is unparalleled in how Erkan and colleagues really listen to their clients and adapt seamlessly to customize and attune their guidance to accommodate every nuanced desire, small and large. This meant that our preferences for meals, ambiance, drive time length, downtime, even footsteps were all respected and enhanced — truly astonishing! You can book with full confidence. We cannot wait to go back and learn more ourselves.
