TURKISH DELIGHTS

Turkiye (Turkey) is considered one of the lesser-known jewels of Europe and perhaps the world!  It is here where east meets west, and Europe and Asia connect.  Join us over 17 magical days as we take you on a wonderful journey comprising hidden gems and must-see highlights.  Visiting the ancient sites of Troy, Hierapolis, and Ephesus, along with a chance to float in the warm seas along Turquoise Coast. 

 

We step back in time to take in the solemn battlefields of Gallipoli before regathering and sampling wines from a local vineyard.  Perhaps jump in a hot air balloon, viewing the beauty of Cappadocia, with its whimsical fairy chimneys and peculiar rock formations from above. 

 

Our journey sees us visiting the capital city of Ankara before heading to the UNESCO World Heritage site Safranbolu has been deemed one of the 20 best-preserved towns in the world and our overnight stop is at the historic Imren Lokum Konak Hotel, a boutique accommodation founded by Hidayet Sezer, the oldest Turkish delight seller of Safranbolu. 

 

Our final night is a special delight back in Istanbul, where we emerse ourselves in the modern bazaars before our Farewell Dinner and overnight together in the historic luxury hotel, Pera Palace.
