2008 Tours

Because our groups are limited to 10 guests, we can stay in small traditional hotels and experience the local cuisine at non-tourist restaurants; even sharing dinner or tea with some of the warm and hospitable Turkish residents. We travel at an easy pace, allowing ample time for visiting historical and archaeological sites as well as shopping.

We are proud of our unique and personal approach to travel. Our tours are carefully designed and meticulously planned to offer as wide a range of exposure to history and culture as possible. In addition to the regularly scheduled group tours described in detail below, we are happy to design custom itineraries and special interest tours.

With our travel destinations, we focus not just on the destination alone, but the history and culture which profoundly affects a majority of our guests and opens their eyes and hearts.

We hope to share this with you.
