About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- chonaic0 contributionsFantastic Turkiye DaysWe had a wonderful time inTurkiye on the ‘13 days Best of Türkiye’ tour. The tour guide Halil spoke perfect english, was knowledgeable & fun. He managed the twelve of us very well. We saw a lot of historic sites & learned more about the Turkish culture. The tour guide was very open in explaining society & culture. The 3 days on the gulet were wonderful. Cabins were large; food was excellent; and water was great for snorkeling and swimming. You will have a deeper appreciation of Türkiye if you take this tour. We can’ wait to take an east side or north side (green area) Türkiye tour.Written October 12, 2024
- Sightsee022823186150 contributionsMust do experience if going to Turkey.Small group excellent tour guides.We were amazed by the sights that we seen on this tour.The tour covered all the important places to see in Turkey 🇹🇷. From the 1st day to the last day our tour guide Fa was amazing his knowledge of the history of the places we visited and his passion for the country was second to none.Fa and our bus driver Han went above and beyond of what was expected from them. We had a group of 12 on our tour so we all mixed in very well together. The accomodation on the tour was excellent with great breakfasts. We were more than happy with this tour. 5 star plus. One tip make sure that you have plenty of cash Lira/Euro before arriving as the ATMs Have very high fees in Turkey.And all tours etc need to be paid in cash.(We have done a lot of traveling and never been hit with these fees.We had no option)This is however just a tip on traveling to Turkey and does not reflect on the tour itself. But Fa/Han introduced us to one fee free ATM Zirat Bank.But there is not a lot of them around.Written October 11, 2024
- susanu4270 contributionsAn excellent experience when you add Fa’s knowledge to your own.Fa was so knowledgeable & enthusiastic. it was a pleasure exploring Gallipoli & Troy with him. We loved his imagination & storytelling of Athena while at Troy.Written October 11, 2024
- Kristy B0 contributionsBetter than we imagined!This tour is amazing! Our guide, Fatih Karci, was so knowledgeable and passionate! Words really can’t do it justice, but it was informative, magical, beautiful, breathtaking, emotional, wonderful, and so much more. From the history to the culture to the food to the sea to the hot air balloons, we loved it all! The three nights on the gulet were incredible. The water was more beautiful than we saw in Greece and Italy. We even went paragliding over the travertine terraces! The hot air balloon ride was out of this world. I can’t recommend this tour enough!Written October 11, 2024
- U3412PKalanr0 contributionsOmer was an excellent guide for us. He was knowledgeable and courteous at all us in seeing the major sites in Istanbul.Over our guide showed us all the major sites of interest in Istanbul. He was very knowledgeable and courteous throughout the tour. We would recommend him to anyone wishing to do this tour.Written October 10, 2024
- A8087JYgrahamp0 contributionsGallipoli and Troy adventureWe hav we just completed our Troy / Gallipoli two day tour...a great experience. Day 1 saw us visit the "stacked" city of Troy, plus a quick visit to the naval museum...up close and personal in a submarine! Day 2 was the Gallipoli tour...a must for all Aussies and Kiwis. Through it all, our guide Omer was well organised, helpful and good fun to be with...add our trusty and skilled driver Jengis and it made for a great tour. Slightly less enthused with the Hilton Hotel at Cannakale...efficient I suppose, but snooty...we weren't made to feel welome at all. Rest of the trip? Awesome!Written October 10, 2024
- Stay5995130 contributionsA captivating experience of a fascinating country.I did the 13-day 'Wonders of Türkiye with gulet' tour, and what an incredible experience it was. I was thoroughly engaged from Day 1 to Day 13. Our guide was Halil and our driver was Akim until we got to Cappadocia. Halil was charming and his knowledge and passion for this wonderful country was the icing on the cake. Always calm, always ready to answer our endless questions, ever respectful and seemingly tireless. I left my phone at Dolmabahçe Palace on Day 1 and Halil phoned and discovered it has been found and made sure I got it back again in the rush before closing. Akim was a good and careful driver and he and Halil were a great team. Our group was comprised of varying fitness levels and I was impressed by Halil's skill in managing us all with his ever patient manner. The highlight for me was learning about the history of the ancient civiIisations that all contributed over millenia to current day Türkiye. I highly recommend this company.Written October 10, 2024
- Mobile404464828400 contributionsScam companyThis tour company is a scam company. They have hidden costs which are over the top. They make you pay for all tickets seperate (add at least another $400) and try and profit off this. We realised they were over charging for many of the tickets and only gave us money back after we called them out on it. The tour guide was rude and actually shouted at multiple tour goers (all women which made me wonder if he was sexist to be honest) at one point I thought he’d hit someone he was trying to intimate her so much when she had just asked a question in a very polite way we all heard it. Not a company to travel with if you want to feel safe and get information. Turkey is beautiful, see if through another company!Written October 9, 2024
- cheryldT8589II0 contributionsAmazing TurkiyeWe have been home barely a week and our Türkiye holiday with Fez travels was fantastic. Fathi Karci , our guide, mentor, educator and friend was everything we could have hoped for with his incredible knowledge of the history of Turkiye, relaxed nature and helpfulness , he certainly helped us in our journey, to learn, have fun and enjoy his country. What holiday! It was memorable and we will never forget Türkiye, the people we traveled with and the fun we had! Thanks Fahti and our expert driver.Written October 8, 2024
- M1484RBelizabethd0 contributionsSuperb TurkeyOur tour guide was Fatih Karci who expertly managed our 11 person tour to great effect. We have one difficult member of the tour who challenged Fatih on a daily basis and appeared intent on disrupting the group.He managed this person with aplomb and skill and the rest of us had uninterrupted touring pleasure. I commend him on his professionalism and recommend him to you if you have a choice. We were entertained and educated and always amused. Thank you Fatih. Both you and Turkey exceeded our expectations.Written October 7, 2024

- D5771BZjanep0 contributionsCombination of information of Turkey past and present visiting some of turkey’s magical sightsTamer our guide and Murat our driver were a fantastic team to show us some of Turkey’s amazing sights. History and expanded information meant we could understand a great deal about Turkey past and present. Both Tamer and Murat were highly organised and our trip was enjoyable from beginning to end.

I want to highlight the excellent service of the agency and the personalized attention of Pinar. I recommend to everyone who goes to Turkey to contact Pinar and the agency. They gave personalized attention at all times, the excursion and the guides were excellent, they were at the customer's service at all times, they recommended places to eat, to walk, we felt content at all times. The hotel industry 10 points. The price was the best on the market and the service far exceeded my expectations. It is an agency that I will use every time I travel. I hope there are many more. Thank you Pinar for the excellent attention. I felt cared for and contained. CONGRATULATIONS for the excellence in quality of service! My entire family was surprised and grateful for the great service you had with us.

We did the 10 day tour. Absolutely perfect. Saw places that had always dreamed of. Our guide Tamer was absolutely 5 star rating as was Murat our driver. Tamer was extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of everywhere we went. Murat dropped us close to all attractions and hotels. Tamer went out of his way to help and checked us in for our flights and arranged our boarding passes. Couldn’t recommend this tour enough. Our hotel in Capadocia was incredible too!
