<<< Back To Previous

The beginning of this tour follows the basic ANZAC Day package, then the group takes off for an extensive trip around Turkey. This trip includes everything from archaeology to mythology. You’ll see the varied landscapes, traditions and magical scenery from Turkey’s interior to its crystal blue Mediterranean waters.

Your Turkish/English speaking guide will be with you on your bus for the whole trip, ready to explain or answer any questions you might have on your journey.

Accommodation is hotel style. Different places are chosen for specific reasons, be it the quality of the rooms, the standard of service, the friendliness of the staff, or the amazing hospitality of the owners.

A great plus to this tour is the 4 day/3 night boat cruise aboard a gullet which we have included as a real holiday getaway. You have everything at your fingertips on the trip including all meals, plus 5 tea breaks with biscuits. Cruise the Mediterranean, seeing Turkey’s coastline and coves with amazing views and sites of interest.

This tour brings together the most popular of sites with some added extras of great value but less travelled places by western tourists.
