We are not ashamed to say that Turkey is Mosaic Travel’s favourite destination! Dive into the exotic and bustling metropolis of Istanbul, exploring the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, the Grand Bazaar and the spice markets.
Hit the road to Gallipoli and experience an in-depth tour of the battlefields with a local guide, before crossing the Dardanelles to charming Canakkale. The ancient cities of Troy, Pergamum and Ephesus are all highlights of a visit to Turkey, with our local guides bringing the stories and the fascinating history alive.
In Cappadocia, you will explore ancient underground cities, hike in the valleys and experience a balloon flight at sunrise, overlook the moon-like landscape.
If you have more time, we recommend a visit to the Mediterranean coast, where we can arrange an overnight cruise, or a stay in an authentic village overlooking the sea.
Accommodation we recommend include a charming B&B, an historic mansion and a cave hotel.
We can arrange travel in Turkey with a mixture of private drivers and shared mini-tours, as well as a domestic flight. We recommend around two weeks in Turkey, although Rosie will always recommend at least a month!
Friendly faces in Safranbolu, serving us saffron tea. I love this image because I really got to know this saffron man over the years. He didn’t speak much English, but he would be so hospitable and loved teaching my clients about saffron – I would translate (badly!). On one tour we had just arrived in the town, and I was telling the group something. He ran up to me and louding exclaimed ‘MY DAUGHTER’ and gave me a big hug! The tour group thought it was fantastic!
