Wonderful Experience

I took a group tour to Istanbul, Capadocia and Kusadasi. I visited the Fairy Chimneys, the Pasabag Rock, the Ancient City of Ephesus. I mean, I consider myself a traveler, but I had never been in the Middle East. It’s so different than anything I had never seen before. In Turkey, people are warm and welcoming. If you have the chance, visit Turkey, specifically Istanbul. Lots of history and cultural sites.

Incredible Guide makes Intrepid Tour extra special

We spent 15 days on an Intrepid Best of Turkey tour. An outstanding tour that was more than what was advertised. Turkiye is a nation that has lots to offer from historic sites to beaches and the food is incredible. What made our tour so amazing was our tour guide -Mete Mustafa Ates. He is one of the best if not the best guide I have ever used. Professional & Passionate, patient and kind, and a guide who cares about his clients. Traveling in Turkiye and need a guide, do yourself a favor and choose the best. Contract him through WhatsApp +90 554 643 2010 . He is also very humble so I am sure he would be embarrassed if saw this review but please let anyone coming to Turkey that you know a highly recommended guide.

Istanbul - An Amazing Place - Many Memories

We visited Istanbul in October 2025 as part of tour of Turkey with Altinkum Travel. We stayed at the Celal Sultan Hotel. The hotel was ideally located near the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Istanbul is an amazing city. So much to see, do and eat! We visited the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia - amazing buildings that must be on any visit list. We walked to many places - the Hippodrome, the Grand Bazaar, the Spice Market, Topkapi Palace. One of the best adventures was a cruise on the Bosphorus on the Turkish National Day. Another highlight was the Basilica Cistern, an amazing structure built in the 6th Century, one of those how did the do that places. The best part was the number of places to eat with wonderful food - great fun exploring the food options.

Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience with us. It's a great pleasure for us to hear that you enjoyed your trip with us. The feedback always motivates us to serve you better. Thank you very much once again and we are looking forward to seeing you again. Kind Regards, TOUR ALTINKUM TRAVEL

Amazing time on the Best of Turkey Tour

I had such a great time in Türkiye. We visited several cities and the sites were magnificent! Such a beautiful country! At times, the weather affected the itinerary; however, the tour guides proceeded with exciting alternative sites without missing a beat. The tour guides all spoke English, were very helpful, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. The food was good and the hotels were nice and clean. I was impressed with the daily communication regarding the next day's activities, and responses were prompt. Recommend

Turkish delights

We had a great time exploring Turkey with a fun group of six. Our guide Tayfyn was very knowledgeable and nice. Our driver Kueret was very professional and kind Free time in the afternoon on some of the days was a great balance. Unfortunately we could not see the balloons fly in Cappadocia due to the weather.

10 Days - Best of Turkey Tour / by Plane: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Istanbul.

How much does 10 Days - Best of Turkey Tour / by Plane cost?

+

Prices start at $700 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 Days - Best of Turkey Tour / by Plane 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 Days - Best of Turkey Tour / by Plane worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 90 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 236 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Istanbul, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule 10 Days - Best of Turkey Tour / by Plane?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 144 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 Days - Best of Turkey Tour / by Plane 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 Days - Best of Turkey Tour / by Plane?

+

Around 83 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 Days - Best of Turkey Tour / by Plane 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.
