Turkey Tours

Another successful WendyWu holiday, excellent guide (Ilhan) with great knowledge of the places visited on the itinerary. Lovely hotels & good variety of food from many different sorts of restaurants.
Coach driver Mustafa's patience driving group safely around the sights of Turkey was second none.

As always very friendly and helpful. Also efficient and explained costs. Gave me my VIP discount without me asking

Very good itinerary but we didn't have enough time at some of the sights, especially those in Istanbul. The hotel in Istanbul was in a good location but otherwise was not up to the usual standard of Wendy Wu.

Pretty good but too many n group for one pwrson to lead and guide. Three people were lost on the first day and others almost left behind i a different place. Some very long days with no warning.

The holiday was a bit less "polished" than previous Wendy Wu trips we have been on.

The food was repetitive and variable in quality. All hotels had a buffet service except the Kalehan Hotel where the food was excellent, it would have been nice to eat in the hotel the second night rather than going out and having a substandard meal that was served too quickly, 28 minutes from beginning to end.
Maybe with lunch and dinner it might be an idea to know what type of food is to be served, we often got the same meal twice in one day.

The hotels were good except the Oran in Istanbul. As a welcoming hotel for the first few nights the bar area was never open for people to get to know each other. Rooms were tired looking and there was no sound proofing, it was very noisy from other residents.

We would have preferred more time at Gallipoli. The waterfall (Manavgat) was not worth the trip. The guide (Ibraham)was good and knowledgeable. The driver(Ali) was great.

The tipping arrangements seemed confused. On previous trips the guide handed envelopes to the local guides and driver from the £90 euros we had paid but this didn't appear to happen and there was an additional collection from the group for both the driver and the guide..

The Magnesia trip was very informative with an extremely knowledgeable local guide.

The flight from Ankara to Istanbul seemed an unnecessary complication, with a lot of time spent at the airport in Ankara followed by a bus journey of over two hours to get back to the hotel in Istanbul.

All in all we had a great trip, we loved the places we went to and finding out more about this historical country. The balloon ride in Cappadocia was a real highlight of the trip.
