Being led by a friendly, knowledgable guide with such a personal connection to the history we were seeing - a Kayi man. The care with which the tour was planned so the story unfolded logically, and the attention to detail from the beautiful meals ( breakfast was a particular highlight) through to the organisation and clear communication of pick up details was first class. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in the beginnings of the Ottoman Empire.

Great Ertugrul tour.

NoorAllah_M, Jul 2023

The tour guide, Cengis, was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of history. He was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast and lunch that is included was fabulous. The costume exercise and photos will leave lifetime memories. The only disappointment was how long the tour was. It says full day tour, dinner not included. Given the number of places that this tour takes you to, it is understandable why it would take so long. We were picked up at 6:45am and dropped off to our hotel at about 9:00 pm! The tour was worth it, but it would have been nice to know what time it would end. Overall, a great tour. Highly recommended!

FANTASTIC

Cengiz really did a good job designing the tour and made it very enjoyable. The tour encompasses the all the highlights you need to know about the origin and start of the ottoman.
