An excellent trip
I would highly recommend booking your next tour of Istanbul with Kemal at City of Sultans Day Tours. Our experience in this wonderful city was absolutely fantastic, thanks to him. Kemal was extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of Istanbul. His knowledge, humour, and genuine passion for his city were evident and made the experience well worth it. What made the experience truly unforgettable was how personalized it felt. Rather than delivering a scripted tour, Kemal tailored the day around our interests, making sure we experienced both the iconic landmarks and some of the hidden gems of Istanbul. His warmth, enthusiasm, and attention to detail made the entire day so enjoyable and memorable. We learned so much, had plenty of laughs, and felt like we were exploring the city with a friend rather than simply taking a tour. If you’re visiting Istanbul and want to experience the city beyond just the usual tourist attractions, I highly recommend Kemal. He truly made our time in Istanbul special, and we would happily book with him again
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for choosing our services. We are very happy to hear that you had a great time with our tour guide Mr. Kemal :)

Turkey is highly overrated
Overall experience was fine except that Antalya is highly overrated and specially it trips and travel agencies specially Mars Travels are fraud, all the beaches are occupied by cafés and hotels, people speak only Turkish and faced great difficulty in conversing in English. Food was bland and cold. Turkish tea and coffee was good. Cappadocia and Istanbul were good to stay and enjoy.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time in Cappadocia and Istanbul, as well as the Turkish tea and coffee. At the same time, we're sorry that parts of your experience in Antalya did not meet your expectations. As many aspects of your comments relate to the destination itself, such as the beaches, local businesses, language, and personal food preferences, these are unfortunately beyond our control. However, we always appreciate honest feedback, as it helps us better understand our guests' experiences. If you feel that our team and the services we provided met your expectations, we would be truly grateful if you would consider updating your review to reflect your experience with City of Sultans separately from your impressions of the destinations. Reviews have a significant impact on our small team, and it would mean a great deal to us if the rating reflected the quality of the tour and the service we provided. Thank you once again for traveling with us. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Türkiye in the future. Kind regards, City of Sultans Team

Fabulous Turkey Trip
Mr. Ozgur Ates did a great job of customizing the entire tour to our requirements. Everything was very well organized, done in timely fashion and went very smooth. When our balloon ride in Cappadocia got canceled he quickly made alternative arrangements so that we could go to the ride the next day. The hotel selection for the silver package was very luxurious. We certainly recommend CityofSultans for your tour!
Response from the operator: Hello Mr. Vikrant, Thank you very much for choosing our services. It was our great pleasure to serve your family.. We hope to see you again in Turkey :)

Mediocre Experience with City of Sultans
This review for City of Sultans 12 Days Grand Turkey Tour. My review is based on the dates March 29, 2026 through April 9, 2026. The tour did not add up to a 5 Star experience. My grade is 3 stars based on the following: 1) The hotel accommodation in Istanbul, Legacy Ottoman Hotel, is far from a 5 star hotel. This hotel targets low cost tourist budgets and is in need of many improvements. I made my tour packager, On the Go Tours, aware of my concerns based on established reviews and was told after checking with City of Sultans that all issues at the hotel have been resolved. Not even close – the room assigned was dingy, poorly lit and the safe did not function. We waited 3 hours for the hotel staff to drill into and open the safe. The breakfast food is way below average. Eggs were cold and overall 2) Fortunately, City of Sultans changed our Istanbul hotel accommodations to the slightly better Hotel Amira for the final night of the tour. 3) The Best of Istanbul in 1 Day was disappointing. The tour guide went through the paces and persuaded us to skip Topkapi Palace due to wait times and renovations. 4) Tourist Trap carpet, leather goods, ceramic and jewelry . Each tour day, all tours had multiple stops at vendor locations. NOWHERE IN THE DOCUMENTATION DESCRIBING EACH DAY’S ACTIVITIES IS THERE MENTION OF TOURIST TRAP STOPS TO ATTEND SALES PRESENTAITONS. At least two hours a day are wasted and my research indicates the tour company and/or tour guide is paid a commission! 5) In Cappadocia we were placed in a bargain basement hotel which amounted to a bare mountain cabin. City of Sultans told us the hotel in the marketing materials, Fresco Caves, was under renovation. Funny, Booking.com showed room availability and we were stuck at the bare bones / dirty hotel for a night. City of Sultans changed out room for the last 2 nights. I feel we were placed in a way below marketed experience either for budget purposes or lack of care to details and concern for the tourist. All in all, I am disappointed in City of Sultans and highly recommend any tourist considering their tour packages to avoid this tour operator.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your experience. We truly value all feedback, especially when it highlights areas where we can improve. First and foremost, we sincerely regret that your tour did not meet your expectations. This is certainly not the standard of experience we aim to deliver. Regarding your stay in Istanbul, we are very sorry to hear about the issues you encountered at Legacy Ottoman Hotel. While we had been informed that prior concerns had been addressed, it is clear that your experience did not reflect this, and for that we apologize. We also regret the inconvenience caused by the issue with the in-room safe and the delay in resolving it. Your comments about the breakfast quality have been noted and will be shared directly with the hotel management for immediate review. We are pleased that the change to Hotel Amira for your final night provided some improvement, though we understand this does not fully make up for the earlier experience. With respect to the Istanbul tour, we understand your disappointment regarding Topkapi Palace. At times, our guides may suggest adjustments due to factors such as long queues or partial closures in order to make the best use of the day; however, we agree that such decisions should always be clearly communicated and aligned with guest expectations. Regarding the shopping stops, we sincerely apologize if these felt excessive or were not properly communicated in advance. While brief visits to local artisan workshops are included to showcase traditional crafts, they are intended to be optional and not detract from the overall experience. Your feedback is extremely valuable here, and we will be reviewing both the frequency and how these stops are presented to our guests. In Cappadocia, we regret the confusion and dissatisfaction regarding the hotel arrangements. Occasionally, operational constraints may require us to use alternative accommodations; however, these should always be of a comparable standard. It is clear that this was not your perception, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. We are glad that we were able to improve your accommodation for the remaining nights, though we understand the initial experience left a negative impression. Please rest assured that your comments have been taken seriously and will be shared internally with our operations team and partners to ensure improvements are made. We genuinely appreciate your feedback and regret that we fell short of delivering the 5-star experience you expected. We hope there may be an opportunity to restore your confidence in us in the future. Kind regards, City of Sultans Team

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
10 Days Turkey Tour to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Ephesus: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Istanbul.
How much does 10 Days Turkey Tour to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Ephesus cost?
+
Prices start at $265 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 Turkey Tour to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Ephesus 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 Turkey Tour to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Ephesus worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 20 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 Days Turkey Tour to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Ephesus?
+
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 Days Turkey Tour to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Ephesus 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 Turkey Tour to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Ephesus?
+
Around 7 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 Turkey Tour to Istanbul, Cappadocia, Antalya, Ephesus 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.
