Turkey 360°: Istanbul, Cappadocia and Ephesus
The trip in a nutshell
Turkey is a bridge between two worlds: a land where East meets West , boasting a unique fusion of ancient heritage and modern dynamism. On this group tour, we’ll delve into the rich tapestry of Turkey’s culture, cuisine, and historical wonders. From the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia to the bustling bazaars of Istanbul, our 9-day adventure promises to be an exploration of both the past and the present.
We will begin our adventure in Cappadocia , in the Göreme Valley , where we will travel through valleys surrounded by the famous fairy chimneys and the rest of the geological formations that make this area of Turkey a unique place. We will also have the opportunity to admire this wonder from above if we choose to take an impressive hot air balloon ride at dawn ! We continue the journey towards Konya and Pamukkale , to discover its Roman baths of Hierapolis , before reaching the historic city of Ephesus , a world heritage site. We will also stop in Pergamon before concluding our journey by putting the icing on the cake with Istanbul . The ancient Constantinople that will enchant us with its Blue Mosque, the Grand Bazaar and its magical sunsets over the Bosphorus. Istanbul is a unique city in the world, where very different cultures and traditions coexist every day, but which contribute to making it almost surreal and full of contrasts, mixtures and paradoxes.
