About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Cuba2023Feb0 contributions18 day Turkey Tour - Absolutely Fantastic!Erkan, the owner, was very responsive and everything worked like clockwork. Great scheduling and we did not have any issues at all. Our trip covered Istanbul, Capadoccia, Pamukale, Ephesus, Aphrodisias, Kusadasi, 4 day Gullet tour from Fethiye, Antalya, Rize and Mount Kackar in the north. We would definitely recommend Travel Store Turkey to anyone visiting Turkey.Written October 1, 2024
- DianaP6730 contributionsPerfect tour experience for solo female travellerMy time in Turkey was incredible, I was worried travelling solo as a woman but this tour made everything seamless from the moment I was collected from the airport. The hotels were in perfect locations and the tour guides were all 10/10. Highly recommend!Written August 28, 2024
- mathew660 contributionsAwsome trips in IstanbulI found travel store turkey via Google. He was very excellent and choose some excellent selection for us. Our trip very enjoyable and the accommodation was awsome. I will recommend this agency for future trips.Written August 25, 2024
- Musicneil660 contributionsReally set me up for a good stay, with knowledge and where everything isThe private guided tour was well worth it and more, as a solo traveller and first time to Istanbul I wanted to get a feel for the place and know where things are. We started off at my hotel to the hagia sofia mosque (my favourite place in Istanbul), then the Blue Mosque which is just next door. Aft this was up to me, he showed me where the Grand bazaar was which I wanted todo another day. Took me in the Bailica Cistern, which was amazing cost 500 lire too enter. But having the use did not ned to queue. Not queuing was the thing to all sites as an official guide always kne other guides who where already buying tickets for their tourists, so he got mine. Learnt a lot about history, good places to eat or grab a coffee. Really set me up for a good break in Istanbul.Written May 26, 2024
- Glenfrans200 contributionsPrivate guide sightseeing Istanbula truly extraordinary experience using a private guide to enter mosques and museums and several other places because this service really cuts down our queuing time even though the costs are quite expensive, but if you have excess money then my advice is to use a private guide service like this one. will purchase tickets and and the most important thing is to cut the queue which is so long and wastes your time because if you have to queue normally without using a private guide like this it might take 2 hours for you to get into your destination and this woman is very, very kind and knows you well For all our purposes, thank you once again for the private guide services. by Dilek. Good JOBWritten May 20, 2024
- Shrek-loves-Fiona0 contributionsBest recommended Turkey tour agentMy wife and I had a wonderful time doing the 6 days tour from Istanbul to Gallipoli, Troy, Ephesus, Pamukkale and ending up in Cappadocia. Although Mr Erkan, owner of Travel Store Turkey, was just the agent and coordinator and didn’t join the tour, he connected us with the various tour operators in the various regions, booked our hotels and flights. Everything was top notch and the tour went smoothly. Mr Erkan was very responsive to our WhatsApp messages and flexible with our itinerary. The money we paid to get someone trustworthy and who knows the best tour operators and hotels was well worth it.Written May 20, 2024
- TrulyGoBlue0 contributionsCreative and inexpensive help in making a first time visit to TurkeyAlthough we were not able to ultimately book with Travel Store because of other issues, we did find that Erkan at this tour operator (he is the owner) was among the most responsive of any that we have worked with in the past. He had many creative ideas for keeping our transit time low (and low cost), and maximizing the opportunity to see as much as possible of his beautiful country in our limited time. He is a one man operation, which means prices are lower (little overhead) but he will reply to WhatsApp messages seemingly 24 hours a day. You will be very happy with his communication and planning if engage Erkan and his team.Written May 8, 2024

- barrykL8531GE0 contributionsHad the best time and were looked after from start to finish.Erkan from the Travel Store Turkey was wonderful to deal with. He organized everything from start to finish! We spoke clearly and promptly via WhatsApp. The pricing was on point and flexible as required. I would definitely recommend them and I would use them again. They looked after our family of five with the best trip. We even got them to take us to and from a ski field. Great people.Written January 15, 2024
- reginacD6587YG0 contributionsAmazing ExperienceThe hotels were wonderful, Hilton and The Hera Caves, the places are amazing, especially Pamukkale, Kusadasi and Cappadicia, the people are very friendly and the guides were very helpful and had an amazing knowledge of History to enlighten our experience. I highly recommend this package and wish I can come back to this amazing country.Written January 10, 2024
- Giovanni M0 contributionsAwesome TripAwesome experience! The transfers were always on time, the hotels were great, the places we visited were amazing and the guides were very helpful! Unfortunately, the weather didn't allow us to do the balloon flight in Capadoccia, but now I have more reasons to come back!Written January 10, 2024
- Meander572739536250 contributionsBeautiful experienceThank you for the beautiful experience at the Hagia Sofia! Dilek our guide she explained everything in the details, we skipped a huge line in the entrance and after that brought us also to Yerebatan Cisterne without any charge. Super friendly and available for all the advice of this city !Written December 29, 2023
- 531nishadn0 contributionsif you need guided tour in Istanbul then I will definitely recommend her to be your guide … it’s totally worth it.!!Dilek met us by chance… near Hagia Sophia… and I must say it was worth it. At the start of our conversation it was very professional but by end our guided tour we all became so friendly that she helped us out of the way for some other activities as well…Written November 20, 2023
- aruns4230 contributionsGreat experience and very professionally organisedThis truly was a trip of a lifetime and it did not disappoint. We covered all major cities of Turkey and indulged in history and site seeing. We covered Gallipoli, Pamakule, Capadocia, Antalya and of course Istanbul. We wish to express our thanks to Mr. Erkan Turka of Travel Store Turkey. We traveled for 11 days and Everything was well organised the schedules was well maintained and tailored for our needs. We were very happy with the hotels we stayed in and all arrangements for pick up and drop happened on time. The guide and driver worked very hard to please us every day, choosing nice restaurants for every vegetarian meal, he was flexible with working hours and making changes to our itinerary. We were well cared for and never felt unsafe on the mountain roads. Overall, we would highly recommend Mr. Erkan Turka If you are planning any sort of tour in Turkey.Written November 13, 2023
- Voyage088322112670 contributionsUnforgivableAmazing. I recommend this tour 1000% . The driver was very nice and the guide man very and super nice. And Mr. Erkan was wondering.Written October 8, 2023

Every aspect of this tour was great. Pick ups, flights, and transfers were smooth, hotels were centrally located and wonderful, and tour guides were informative, knowledgeable, and friendly. It felt amazing not having to worry about any planning for 4 days. An itinerary was provided for each day ahead of time so I always knew when my flights or pick ups would occur. Keep in mind that every city has a different tour company and guides for each day so don't expect to be with the same group throughout the whole time. This provided opportunities to meet new people. Would highly recommend.

This was one of the best organized tours I have been on. The 4-day tour started in Istanbul with a hotel pickup and ended the same. From airport transfers, flights, hotel bookings and the guided tours, everyone did an excellent job.
Travel Store Turkey was even flexible in changing our tour option in Ephesus from morning to afternoon when we had a long flight delay and couldn’t get to Kusadasi until 3am. Any issue was quickly resolved via WhatsApp almost immediately.
The hotels we stayed at were excellent and well curated for our needs. The airport transfers were all on time.
The guided tours included a group of about 10-15 folks. So, be forewarned that they cannot be customized, but a certain level of flexibility could be made. Also, all the guides make a quick commercial stop at local businesses as part of the tour. It’s your option to purchase items from these facilities.
All in all, we felt that Travel Store Turkey did a great job in managing through the dozens of tourists they cater with an individual attention to our needs. I highly recommend them and will employ them again for future tours we may do in the region.

This tour covers all the basics that you want to visit across various locations. It is an extensive and jam-packed itinerary with some late nights and early mornings but if you're okay with that I highly recommend this tour.
All the travel is organised by the agency, which relieves you of having to plan every little thing such as the domestic flights and the car rides to and from the airports, which can be a lot especially in a foreign country.
I particularly enjoyed meeting people from all over the world!
All the individual tours were great and the tour guides were all very friendly.
The seaside location of the hotel in Kusadasi was beautiful.
Erkan organizes everything for you and is very accommodating.
As long as you know what to expect you will definitely be satisfied.

This trip was awesome and The Turkey Store is part of the reason. The guides were on time for hotel pick ups, transfers to airports or to other drivers for multi mode transport were smooth and all of this added to the magic snd enjoyment of it all. Gotta give a special thank you snd shout out to Ethan T from the Turkey store who really helped us big time with all aspects of the trip that made it even more enjoyable.

Flights and guides perfect. Would use them again and highly recommend if you like your own independence without the stress

This was one of the BEST experiences I've ever had w an organized tour operation. It was reasonably priced, the guides were excellent, and the locations were amazing! Everything was very well organized. And when the only setback arose w a delayed plane they quickly remedied the situation and refunded my cab fare. Top shelf tour w very professional staff!

We used Erkan from “ The travel Store, Turkey, simply put he was the best ! Always making sure everything is happening as it should or arranging on the fly when the wind didn’t cooperate for our balloon flight in Capadocia , he moved things around and got us the balloon ride in Pamukkale without us suggesting it. Pickups from and to the airport perfect, hotels great. I’d use him again anytime.

Amazing trip. Even though the weather was not the best, this tour is absolutely recommended. Erkan from Travel Store Turkey is an exceptional professional. He is really dedicated to serve his customers. Throughout the crazy flight schedules due to bad weather, he pulled out our itinerary intact somehow. We did not lose anything we had scheduled in the middle of snow storm around Istanbul and Cappadocia region. If I go back to Turkey, I will book all my tours and trips through him and Travel Store Turkey. Good Job Erkan.

It was an excellent tour.
Erkan was aware taking care of us all the time.
Flights were good, guides were excellent, hotels reasonable good and meals (breakfast and lunch’s) were also good.
Small groups and very good land transportation.
I really recommend this tour, as going alone could be difficult and more expensive.
