INSIDER ACCESS – DON’T JUST SEE IT; EXPERIENCE IT
Turkish Travel has a comprehensive network of experts, insiders and service providers, which allows us to create the trip you’ve always imagined. Want to make “manti” in Kayseri with a local housewife? Does seeing the magical moonscape of Cappadocia on a hot-air balloon ride at sunrise enthrall you? How about making jam with local villagers in Kuşadası, or exploring the Aegean Coast in a private gullet? We can make it all happen. We can also arrange for you to travel around Turkey by boat, on horseback, or by private jet. We can have you sleeping in a room on the top floor of Istanbul’s most luxurious hotel or in one of Cappadocia’s exquisite cave hotels. We have more knowledge, relationships, and expertise than anyone in the industry, and we use it to create one-of-a-kind journeys and experiences that you will cherish for a lifetime.
FIRSTHAND KNOWLEDGE – WE’VE BEEN THERE
We make each travel suggestion based on the personal experiences of our team, and we continue to travel throughout Turkey to ensure that our recommendations are accurate and inspired. Not only do we know the best hotels and restaurants – we know which rooms have the best views and which restaurants serve the best local dishes. We don’t simply connect you with random tour guides, gullet captains, hot-air balloon pilots, and artists; we connect you with true experts that we know well enough to call friends. We suggest places that have ignited our own interest, such far-flung villages, ancient mosques, and cave resorts that we’ve been to ourselves and still remember. We are perceptive and insightful – and opinionated – and we welcome the opportunity to share our knowledge with you.
PERSONALIZED SERVICE – TRIPS JUST FOR YOU
Remember the old hamburger commercial, “have it your way”?
“Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce.
Special orders won’t upset us.
All we ask is that you let us serve it your way.”
At Turkish Travel we take the same approach with your tour. First, we gather information from you about what you like to do so we can create a customized itinerary that really invigorates you. We have arranged for art lovers to meet up-and-coming visual artists in Istanbul and learn centuries-old metalworking techniques in Gaziantep. Spiritual seekers have made pilgrimages to see the House of The Virgin Mary in the hills near Kuşadası and many have followed in the footsteps of St. Paul on his Missionary journeys. We have even arranged for socially conscious visitors to meet with refugees in Eastern Turkey. We can build a trip around any of your passions or interests, such as cooking, yoga, archeology, or volunteering, or just make them part of a larger journey.
OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE – WE ARE VISIONARIES
Turkish Travel was established more than thirty years ago and we are pioneers in tourism in this country. We were the ones that first brought Americans to Turkey and this pioneering spirit has stayed with us over the years as we’ve brought people to see the unexplored parts of the country. We are devoted to creating unique experiences for travelers who want to see first-hand the astounding and distinct beauty of Turkey. The company has a diverse team who want to share their excitement of travel with you. You absolutely won’t find another company who knows Turkey as well as we do, is as excited by it, and who will inspire you to see it so thoroughly.
