Everything went very smoothly, taxis turned up on time, hotels were comfortable and welcoming and any questions we had both before the trip and during it were answered promptly, even out of hours. All three tours which were part of our trip were interesting and the guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The 1811 Cave Hotel was stunning as was Cappodicia itself. All in all, we would throroughly recommend this trip.”

Our trip was a custom itinerary and Rough Guides and their expert Mehmet from Turkiye arranged all transportation, guides, admissions, and fabulous hotels in each city. Our itinerary required a lot of moving from place to place and included flights as well. We were picked up with almost military precision at each location that required a pickup. The vehicles were all clean, modern and the drivers were good. We never had a thought that we were not provided for. Our trip was everything we hoped for. I would definitely use Rough Guides again for any upcoming trips.”

“We found that the driver was always on time except for the occasion of a flat tire. The driver and guides were very professional and were helpful with all of our needs.”

Mehmet and his team responded very quickly when there was an issue(very few considering) and corrected it. I feel there was a good value to using Rough Guides and I would consider using your services again. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Turkey.”
