By Sutton K.(Halifax, Canada)July 1, 2026 Great family trip in TurkeyMurat in Istanbul was so patient with our family, especially when we needed a bit more time getting around. The 6-day / 5-night Turkey tour felt well paced, with enough planned but not too rushed. Flights and transfers were smooth, and Zeynep in Antalya was lovely and clear about each stop. One day was long and we were tired after, but happy. Really appreciated how easy it all felt.Date of Experience: July 01, 2026
