I didn't go on this tour specifically bc efendi will actually take into account how many days you are there. My husband and i went for our honeymoon for about 6 days. We had to reschedule last minute bc we both got really sick but thankfully the rep who helped me (Yusuf) was really helpful in rescheduling our days and extremely patient with us when things were up in the air on our end. He was always answering my questions and giving clarifications. And giving updates on timings which was great. The itinerary he sent us was spot on and really straightforward. It was our first time traveling abroad and using a tour guide for the entire trip. We felt very taken care of and the reason we went with a tour guide was bc we didn't know the language, culture, or anybody nearby and wanted it to be stress-free and Efendi and Yusuf really made it that way. The hotels were great, the places chosen was great too. We were half in Istanbul and half in Cappadocia for our stay. We were given a lot of downtime, coming back from the tour around 4:30-5:30 pm and having the rest of the day to ourselves which we really liked. I will say tho, this isn't for people who are wanting to go on vacation, this is for people who want to see as much as possible in an efficient way. Any way, I would highly recommend if it'll be your first time going to Turkiye.

One of the things that we like the best about working with Efendi Travel Turkey and see was that when we had a question, they were always there within minutes to answer and help us. The best place if they book is in Istanbul where is the Golden Horn Hotel. That place is absolutely amazing and if you stay on the right floor in the right direction, you have a view of the Haga Sophia, and a little mask all lit up at night.

Efendi Travel Agency with the guidance of Gokay Eskizambak made our trip to Türkiye exceptional. We were impressed with the efficiency and quality of our tours and transportation. As this was our first trip to the Middle East, we were very pleased with the punctuality of all our transportation and transfers. Efendi welcomed us and made it easy to travel around the country. We are well into our retirement and we would find navigating the roads in Türkiye to be extremely challenging however Efendi provided easy, comfortable transportation.
As for the tours, we saw the Best of the Best. Gokay acknowledged that we had limited time and that we needed some rest in order take in the magnificence of the country. He prepared a perfect itinerary with all the must see attractions. The tour guides were articulate and the group sizes ranged from 4-14 participants. The restaurants and hotels met our needs and we were treated to a luxurious surprise at MDC Hotel in Urgup, Cappadocia. Our belly’s were full and we slept well, ready for the next day’s adventure.
We were thrilled to have everything prearranged and taken care of by Gokay. Lovely that we just had to show up and we floated into a magical dream.

We had an excellent experience with Yousuf from Efendi Travel. He was extremely available and helpful throughout our time in Turkey. Any small issues we encountered he immediately helped us with. The hotel locations were perfect, near all the sites and very comfortable but also very quiet. The tour guides were great and the itineraries well thought out with enough time for ourselves. Our groups were never more than 6 to 8 people at most and vehicles were very comfortable. We only ran into a small delay due ro traffic in Istanbul which resulted in a tight connection at the airport but that really qas not Efendi's fault. Yousuf also added a balloon flight for us in Cappadocia which is a must do, and then an extra night in Istanbul at the end so our trip was truly custom. very highly recommended!

Tahsin, was a great tour coordinator and was very informative in helping to guide us around Turkey. He worked with our budget and was available to communicate via WhatsApp. We did a guided tour throughout Turkey and visited all the highlights. Tahsin arranged all the hotels, guides, transfers, and flights. Everything worked well and we had a great time in turkey and was very safe. We fully recommend Effendi and Tahsin to everyone looking to visit Turkey. They are the best!

We were a family of 3 and i must say the tour was well planned. There were no last moment surprises and we would know the scheduled well in advance. We were skeptical when we initiated the conversation to transfer advance to a travel agent in an unknown country but i must say Tahsin is one of the most professional travel agent we have come across. Efendi allows you the flexibility to book hotels of your choice directly, they even planned our flights and gave us the option of booking ourselves which saves us money. That goes to show Efendi does not operate only on commercial principles but they want to provide you with an experience. Tahsin is prudent on mails as compared to calls. I would highly recommend Efendi for Istanbul tours
