Best Private Turkey Tour Company
My husband and I booked a private tour with Turkey Private Tours and were so impressed. We had the most amazing time exploring and learning about all of the top sites in Turkey. Ertunga and Mari are very professional and highly responsive. He organized the perfect tour for us. From the airport pickups to the hotels everything was flawless. We loved our very comfortable and air conditioned van. Our guides and driver were top notch. If you can request Veggie was our driver and our guides were Ozgar and Mehmet. If you are considering a private tour in Turkey I can highly recommend this company.

A little bit of Everything! (All perfectly coordinated)
From the beginning, they answered probably 15-20 emails back and forth. Their communication was always superb pre-trip and during the trip. Mari always was available by WhatsApp for questions and was always patient. Turkey is a wonderful country. It is diverse in food and rich in history. We literally saw places that spanned thousands of years and many empires. Also, the food varies greatly by region and is always fantastic. I personally think it is the best food country that I have ever been to. The 10 day tour included a few days in Istanbul seeing all of the major sits. Our guide Mert was caring and attentive and rich in knowledge. Then we proceeded to Cappadocia, where are guide Nela (sp?) was knowledgeable and patient when we wanted to take breaks or do a bit of souvenir shopping. Then underground caves were particularly interesting. And I would book the balloon trip; it is spectacular. I also ate the best meal I have ever had while there. See previous review. Then we went to Izmir/Ephesus/Selcuk. This was incredible for Greco-Roman influences and ruins. We loved our hotel in Seljuk particularly Ayasoluk Boutique Hotel. The management were so nice. It felt like home. There was a hotel cat and dog that roamed the grounds. Loved that! Also, got to watch a little bit of World Cup with the manager. Also, the hotel is witching walking distance of many restaurants and stores. Even when are flight was late on one leg, everything was known and communicated. Would come back to Turkey again in a second!

Türkiye- A Spiritual & Cultural Journey
Highly recommend Felicity Travel! I recently returned from a Bible trip to Turkey with my mom and son, and it was a truly beautiful and transformative experience for all of us. From the beginning, Ertunga and Mari were exceptional. They helped us plan an itinerary that included meaningful biblical sites while also allowing enough time to fully enjoy each place. Once we arrived, every aspect of the trip, from accommodations to transportation, far exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide Özgür was outstanding. He was warm, knowledgeable, and generous in sharing both historical context and his personal testimony. His insights brought each location to life, especially places like Ephesus and Cappadocia which also included the most amazing hot air balloon ride experience over the sites. One of the most powerful moments of the trip was reading from the book of Revelation at each site of the seven churches. The spiritual atmosphere created during those visits was deeply moving. The food and culture were another highlight. We enjoyed a wide variety of traditional Turkish dishes, and each meal reflected the warmth and hospitality of the Turkish people. Mealtimes quickly became a favorite part of our daily routine. The hotels were also wonderful, chosen with care for both comfort and cultural charm, offering peaceful and inviting places to rest each evening. From ancient ruins to breathtaking landscapes, every stop left a lasting impression and deepened our connection to the biblical stories. This trip was a beautiful blend of spiritual reflection and cultural discovery. Felicity Travel created an experience we will always treasure. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to explore the roots of the Bible and Christianity in Anatolia/Türkiye in a meaningful and unforgettable way.

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
10-Day Highlights of Turkey Private Tour from Istanbul: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Istanbul.
How much does 10-Day Highlights of Turkey Private Tour from Istanbul cost?
+
Prices start at $467 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Istanbul usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 10-Day Highlights of Turkey Private Tour from Istanbul take?
+
Plan for about 240 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Istanbul is not rushed.
Is 10-Day Highlights of Turkey Private Tour from Istanbul worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Istanbul, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 10-Day Highlights of Turkey Private Tour from Istanbul?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 10-Day Highlights of Turkey Private Tour from Istanbul suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 240-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 10-Day Highlights of Turkey Private Tour from Istanbul?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Istanbul can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Istanbul and add a light layer if any part of the 240-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 10-Day Highlights of Turkey Private Tour from Istanbul start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Istanbul within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Istanbul?
+
On Outty we rank every Istanbul experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Istanbul 1, 2 or 3-Day Private Guided Istanbul Tour, Istanbul Luxury Bosphorus Yacht Cruise with Asian Side Stop, ISTANBUL BEST: Iconic Landmarks Full Day PRIVATE Guided City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Istanbul?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Istanbul?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
