Lots of Information & Food!

A wonderful tour and would highly recommend to friends traveling to Istanbul! Mostly on the Asia side (which I preferred) and we did not go hungry! The food was amazing and kept coming - worth every penny! I even have a Gluten allergy and our guide Kaan was so accommodating and found me substitute food so I never felt like I missed out.

History Comes Alive in Kuşadası!

We had an incredible day exploring Kuşadası in a luxury van with our amazing guide, Omer! We visited the House of the Virgin Mary, ancient Ephesus, and the Temple of Artemis. Omer was a walking encyclopedia, bringing history to life with his knowledge and fascinating stories. We also enjoyed a delicious lunch at a local family-run restaurant and had opportunities to shop for Turkish rugs, jewelry, spices, and local specialties. It was a full day packed with history, culture, great food, and wonderful memories. Highly recommend this tour, especially with Omer as your guide!

Beautiful and historic Istanbul sites

We only had one day in Istanbul and this tour covered some amazing highlights. Our tour guide, Cem, was excellent! He was extremely knowledgeable about the sites we visited: the German Fountain, Hippodrome of Constantinople, Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque, and Theodosius Cistern. His English was excellent and he took time to make sure all of our questions were answered. I highly recommend this tour!

Great one day Istanbul tour

We had a great day with our guide Sema. She took care of us and was flexible with our itinerary. Sema took us to as many highlights as she could for us to get a taste of the history and culture of Istanbul (as much as you can in a day). The tour was very informative and our guide was very knowledgeable. Would book with her again!

A perfect day in Istanbul!

Incredible day in Istanbul! Sam, our guide, was exceptional and clearly very passionate and knowledgeable. He is a true local and delivered a personalized tour for my family. We hit all the main sights including Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar and the Cistern. Transportation was prompt and the tour worked well for our schedule. Sam was able to efficiently maneuver the crowds and recommended a local gem for lunch. I highly recommend this tour if you have day in Istanbul. We walked away full of new information and gained a new appreciation for Istanbul.

Excellent tour of Istanbul highlights

Excellent tour! Our guide, Emre, was very knowledgeable about the history of Istanbul and the sites on the tour. Moving between the three sites was seamless with our guide. The Blue Mosque was definitely the highlight for us, but all three sites were beautiful and interesting. Highly recommend this tour!

Fun! Fun! Fun!

From start to finish this tour kept us engaged in entertainment, food and scenery. It was more then worth it. The pictures and albums they sold were a bit pricey but a good souvenoir if you buy them, which everyone usually does because it's a memory. Belly Dancing with a half-naked woman; would keep your kid's eyes closed! Was fun overall; and of course everyone went dancing together at the end !

Cappadocia Hot Air Balloon Tour Over Fairychimneys

Manav_S, Oct 2026

Unforgettable Sunrise Experience with Skyway Travel – Flawless from Start to

Sitting in the hot air balloon as it drifted over the breathtaking rock formations and fairy chimneys of Cappadocia at sunrise was easily the highlight of our trip to Turkey! From the very beginning, the organization by Skyway Travel was top-notch. Pick-up was right on time, and starting the crisp morning with a warm cup of coffee while the crew prepared everything made the waiting process very comfortable. Watching the giant envelopes inflate up-close in the dawn twilight was a spectacle in itself! Once in the air, the pilot was incredibly skilled, delivering a smooth, peaceful flight with unbeatable views of the valley as the sun came up. Landing was seamless, and the traditional post-flight champagne celebration and certificate presentation made it feel extra special. We were back at our hotel with plenty of time to enjoy breakfast and get ready for the rest of our day. If you are visiting Cappadocia, booking through Skyway Travel is an absolute must-do bucket list experience. Highly recommended!

Cappadocia: Hot Air Balloon Tour Sunrise Flight

Tsvetelina_A, Oct 2026

Amazing experience, well executed!

The hot air balloon ride is one of a lifetime experience! And this company executed every detail perfectly! From the communication via WhatsApp one day prior the flight, to the pickup/drop off and the flight itself! The driver was friendly. The balloon crew was professional and nice. The pilot himself was very good and experienced. We had an amazing experience! Thank you! It’s recommended to take the first (sunrise) flight and to reserve it upfront, because it gets more expensive/sold out closer to the date, also make sure to reserve it on the first day of your stay, so if it gets canceled due to the weather you can do it one of the next days. Bring cash if you want the video footage. There is a snack bag for everyone and no time to eat it, but also you don’t need it much.
