I was so nervous about going on this tour, but All Istanbul Tours made everything so easy and stress-free. Our local guides were amazing and helped us see everything we wanted to see in Ephesus, Pamukkale and Cappadocia. The hotels were great and the food was delicious. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone considering it.
Hello Bilal,
We are now back in Doha but I can’t help myself from telling our friends of how beautiful, amazing and rich Turkey is in terms of tourism, natural resources, agriculture, nice people and so on ….
Let me first to thank you and your group or “network” on what all of you did to make this tour very memorable for us. The itinerary was followed perfectly from our first day at Kusadasi to our last day at Istanbul .
When we get down from our plane upon arrival in Izmir airport, I was a little scared because who knows the tour packaged was not true and nobody arranged any tour for us and we might be left sleeping in the airport.
But our fears vanished when we saw that everything was already arranged for us from hotel, transport, food, tour guide. Tour guides are on time, they patiently waited for us and they are all very accommodating.
Thank you again for the perfect tour organizing and arrangement you did for us and the professional treatment given to us by the tour guides.
We feel in love wth Turkey . How We wish We have the time and money to visit again Turkey and explore more of its numerous historical and beautiful places.
Sincerely,
Teresita

The responsiveness of the All Istanbul Tours/Tour Agency was very impressive. They arranged everything and quickly addressed any new requirements we threw at them (extra night booking & pickup as we arrived one day before the tour start) and a last minute Cappadocia Balloon ride booking too. Accommodations arranged were good and tour pickup times were maintained and tour guides were good as well. Only once did a pickup fail to arrive and had to call but they came quickly.
I’d recommend the Ephesus, Pamukkale and Cappadocia with All Istanbul Tours to anyone. The value is great, hotels and breakfast buffets first-class, important sights covered, and the tour guides was excellent.
