Great trip of six nights in Turkey, with three full days in Istanbul and two in Cappadocia. Zicasso’s travel specialist created an itinerary based upon my specifics for my 85-year-old father, 73-year-old mother, my wife and I (40s), and our two kids (8 and 11). She gave a couple of options for hotels and matched our budget. She was responsive and flexible.
Upon arrival in Turkey, we were met by our guide, who was our guide throughout the trip. All transportation was arranged in well-appointed and comfortable Mercedes Sprinter vans. Overall, our guide took care of all the logistics so we could really be very efficient in seeing many sights, learning about the culture, and experiencing the cuisine. We did the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Hippodrome, cisterns, several mosques, a food tour, the Galata Tower, Topkapi Palace, a Bosphorus cruise, the Grand Bazaar, Spice Market, and other key sites. Then we flew to Cappadocia, saw the underground cities, went on a sunrise hot-air balloon ride, and saw other key sites.
Overall, the tour was packed but well organized, smooth, and a wonderful introduction for our multigenerational group to the country, people, and culture of Turkey.
