Ultimate Turkey - Istanbul to Cappadocia - Solo
It's not just a name, our ultimate tour of Turkey takes you in glorious Turkish technicolour from Istanbul’s minaret-studded skyline and clamorous bazaars to the poignant battlefields at Gallipoli, the chariot-wheel rutted streets of Ephesus and the white terraced pools of Pamukkale. We then sweep east, crossing the plains of Anatolia to the honeycombed hills, curvy cliffs and fairy chimneys of Cappadocia. Here we’ll venture underground to find an entire chiselled-out city that lay hidden for thousands of years and enjoy the chance to float up and over this magical, whimsical landscape at sunrise by hot-air balloon.
