TimothyAlan_H, Apr 2016

During the month of April, three of us took a nine-day tour of Turkey with Serendipity Tours. Because we have limited experience with guided tours we did not know what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised during every phase of the trip. From the moment that our guide met us at the airport it was clear that we were in good hands. He took care of every detail during our nine days, from selecting the best places to eat, to efficiently checking us into each of the hotels and guiding our visits to cultural and archaeological sites. Our guide has a passion for his country and he is extremely knowledgeable of its rich history. He was so patient as he explained in detail about the current life in Turkey, as well as the history of each archeological site, museum, and mosque that we visited. There was something new and interesting everyday. Our trip took us from Istanbul, down the west coast and then inland to Cappadocia. Turkey in the springtime was lush and green. One highlight of the trip was the unusual landscape of Cappadocia. Several of us took an early morning balloon ride to view the unique formations. It was a very private tour just three of us with our guide and driver. We ate our meals together and had many delightful conversations. We came away with sights that surprised us, and adventures that provided us with enough memories for years to come. This was one of the very best international travel vacations that we have ever taken. We would recommend this tour company to anyone who wants to spend time getting to know this beautiful country.
