Authentic Adventure – 11 days, 10 nights

The emphasis on this 11-day journey through Turkey is to discover some of its most remarkable characteristics.  With an unbeatable blend of scenic mountains and seas combined with historic cities and towns, Turkey’s secret past is unfolded.  Every trip through Turkey should start with the excitement of Istanbul, full of pageantry from the days of the great Ottoman Empire and going as far back in time as its Byzantine roots.  It is here that mosques, bazaars and palaces are the order of the day.  Then travelling along the Aegean and the Mediterranean coasts visit the battle sites of Gallipoli, the ruins of Troy and a wealth of early Greek and Roman antiquities before the road turns inland to the land of the Whirling Dervishes.  One of this amazing trip’s highlights is to experience the volcanic valleys with their carved fairy chimneys and wind-blasted caves filled with early Christian frescoes that dot the landscape of Cappadocia.  Marvel at the shimmering whiteness of a cascade of limestone hot springs at Pamukkale; be awestruck by the tranquil beauty of the Greco-Roman ruins of Aphrodisias, and see some of this fascinating country’s greatest treasures as you tour the museums of Ankara, the capital.  Well-paced, staying in comfortable hotels and with time to relax, this is a voyage memories are made of.
