An active traveller’s heaven: rugged coast, bizarre inland geography and a continent-crossing capital

Tours in Turkey

An excellent Mediterranean climate, kilometres of unspoilt beaches, mountains, lakes, fascinating towns and villages, and a treasure house of historic and archaeological sites… Turkey tours are filled with adventure. The places we visit are world-renowned: Istanbul, Ephesus, Cappadocia, Gallipoli and Troy, and each has an undisputed place in world history.

Rightly touted as a country of wonderful beaches and coastline, Turkey is also home to untouched mountains and lakes. In the phenomenon of Pamukkale’s limestone ‘cotton castles’ and Cappadocia’s strange geological formations, nature displays its penchant for the beautiful and bizarre. Less well known, perhaps, is that Turkish food is rated as one of the world’s great cuisines, but without doubt, some of the best memories on Turkey tours will come from contact with the local population, who are renowned for their charm, hospitality and friendliness.

Highlights of Trips to Turkey

1. Explore Istanbul: The Hippodrome, Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque and covered Grand Bazaar are all monuments to the glory of the Ottoman Empire, but these days you can also polish off your sightseeing with a cocktail and all-night partying at trendy downtown clubs.

2. Discover Cappadocia: The soft volcanic rock around Cappadocia has created a fantasy landscape of lunar curves and eerie ‘fairy chimneys’. Head underground to uncover entire cities and intricately frescoed churches carved into the rock.

3. Trek the Lycian Way: Pine-forested mountains, amazing clifftop views, ancient ruins and beautiful beaches await on this much-loved long-distance walking holiday route.

4. Go sea kayaking: Just one of the wonderful ways to discover the famous fine beaches and stunning scenery of Turkey’s Turquoise Coast.

5. Dive deep: Busy reefs, underwater caves and shipwrecks await underneath the warm waters of the Med – plenty to keep divers of all abilities happy.

6. Turkey on two wheels: Different and just that bit more dynamic, a road tour of Turkey can take you from the stunning beaches and archaeological sites of the coast high up into the hills where traditional Turkey is all around.

Incredible scenery throughout this walking holiday.

Deb Simmons Walking in Cappadocia

This six day trip includes two days paddling in the Gocek area followed by three days in the historical Kekova area and then one free day in beautiful Kas. Both kayaking areas are sheltered from any winds and have no currents and warm turquoise waters. Paddles are about 15 km each day so they are great for competent kayakers. The boats are sea kayaks, some new and some well used , singles and doubles. Our guide Alper was a very good kayaker with a lovely warm personality, and excellent English. His experience, leadership and organizational skills were great. Being a local, he knew the history of the area and was familiar with all the nooks and crannies. Our small group of eight made for a perfect kayaking adventure.
