With a country that is divided between the Asian continent and the European continent one can only expect greatness in the form of sights, sounds, tastes and travel experiences. Nowadays luxury Turkey tours includes classical ruins, frenzied bazaars, intricate cuisines and densely encrusted city landscapes throughout the major cities.

Istanbul, the city of a thousand minarets, has been the capital for three empires. The Romans, Byzantine and the Ottoman kingdoms ruled this part of the world from here. Although it is extremely touristic around the mosques, bazaars and museums, there are quieter areas such as the Bosporus Strait, which is the connection between the two continents.

The utmost sites to visit in the city include Topkapi Palace, the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, the Museum of Turkish and Islamic art at the Basilica Cistern. Travelers who form part of a privately arranged tour may have special entrance privileges that fast track them past the usual tourists. In addition to this top service, private tour guides escort clients to the city where East and West meet.

This country is also well known for ruins that lie along the Mediterranean coast in towns such as Ephesus, Bodrum, Aphrodisias and further along the geological wonders of Pammukale and Cappadocia. It is at these last two mentioned places where plush travel experiences await. In Cappadocia the travelers are hosted in fairy like rock formations with exceptional hotel amenities for every desire of comfort. Hot air ballooning over this region is essential.

Pammukale is globally known for its cloud like formations filled with warm spring waters. Enchanting spa facilities add to a touch of lavishness with world renowned body treatments on offer. It is here especially where one can go beyond the ordinary travel plans and experience natural attractions that the regular travelers do not opt for. Accommodation in this region blends in with the unscathed nature surrounding it.

The unique position at the crossroads of Europe and Asia resulted in a fusion of cuisine that has had the world talking for centuries. Turkey boasts with exceptional culinary treats in all forms of meals and drinks. Mediterranean dishes that have European elements are served and on the flipside, true Middle Eastern cuisine is also enjoyed. Turkish coffees and sweets such as the ever so famous Turkish Delight are but two that should be sampled at least once during the stay.

The Turkish lands have been known for centuries as the most strategic trade routes and until this day it is traversing the country. Privatized tours usually result in more luxurious services rendered and these include visitation to famous carpet and spice shops, shops that sell flawless silk garments and an array of other exotic goods up for sale.

When one opts for a luxurious travel plan the hotels that are picked are some of the finest the world has seen. Private drivers escort clients to where they wish to be and private guides dedicate their complete attention to these clients. Restaurant and entertainment show reservations can be done in advance on behalf of the clients. With the hustle and bustle of the famous Turkish cities we would like our clients to take in everything but the concern of arranging an unforgettable experience.
