it's so easy and I felt very safe during this holiday!
10/28/2023
Fantastic itinerary. Above and beyond guide. like-minded travelers. Only deducted a point regarding some basic amenity issues with some hotels.
10/21/2023
There was some concerns raised about additional fees incurred during the trip, not included in the initial cost. However, previous G veteran travelers were also confused by them, so I am unsure if it is representative of G overall. Additionally, some fellow travelers reported to have some minor confrontations with the CEO. Finally, the overnight busses were not ideal (though, they were clearly stated in the itinerary, so it was to be expected).
10/21/2023
In general I liked the tour but I didn't liked Fethiye in general + we needed the group bus to go to the city centre which was annoying ( makes us dependable on the CEO/group, less freedom that way)
10/21/2023
It had a lot of free time to allow us to do our own activities however we weren't briefed about options to do in the areas well and then felt so rushed between each city that it felt like we spent most of our time on a bus
10/21/2023
It was overall a very good trip and a great way to be introduced to Turkey.
10/21/2023
I have always had good experiences with G Adventures in terms of the travel style and group composition.
11/04/2023
It was my first G trip and our CEO helped with everything we needed.
11/04/2023
Overall, I had a positive experience on this trip and was happy with the itinerary, the group and the ease of organising the trip.

A great tour style where you see many highlights of a place in an authentic and genuine way.
