Tour Details

A land where East meets West…

A mention of Türkiye will characteristically bring to mind images of the impressive Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque with the skyline of towering minarets both in Istanbul and also other cities of Türkiye. Türkiye’s geographic location at the crossroads of Europe and Asia makes it an enchanting case of East-meets-West. The Bosphorous strait that divides the Europe and Asian sides of Türkiye quite literally straddles both continents, a mere ferry ride away from each other. For every urban skyscraper there is an Ottoman mosque or ancient ruin; for every Zara or Burberrys there are locally-produced rugs, bags and handicraft that features traditional Anatolian motifs; for every McDonalds or Pizza Hut there is a restaurant serving Mediterranean food with Oriental-influenced Turkish music playing in the background and for every Starbucks and Café Nero there is a Turkish coffee shop where mostly elders are playing backgammon. Nowhere else in the world does the amalgamation of Eastern and Western cultures come to life as it does in Türkiye.

Tucked in the south-western corner of Türkiye is the Turquoise Coast, involving thousands of miles of shoreline widening across major towns such as Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye and Antalya. Bounded by the Mediterranean Sea, the Coast presents Mediterranean blue waters and unspoiled sandy coasts to make the ideal beach getaway. The backdrop of wooded slopes and rocky cliffs make it easy to enjoy panoramic views of the seascape.

Moreover, Türkiye has so many ruins from ancient civilizations. From the West; Troy and Ephesus to the East; Cappadocia’s monasteries and cave churches besides statues on Mount Nemrut, these blasts from the past provide a glimpse into the historical wonders that make up Türkiye.
