Turkey private tours reviews
*We spent 12 days touring western Turkey with Aykut and found it to be a wonderful experience. Having an archaeologist as a guide makes a real difference. Aykut is extremely well informed and professional. He put together a special itinerary that includes all of the finest sites and museums in Turkey. As we had asked, we stayed in family-run hotels in central locations and enjoyed the best of Turkish food. He didn’t just offer us a tour; he gave us a new way of looking at history.
