My girlfriend and I joined this tour together, and it turned out to be a truly romantic adventure. The hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia was unforgettable; floating above those surreal valleys was like something out of a dream. Mykonos brought its own charm with stunning views, and Troy’s ancient atmosphere gave us a sense of timeless wonder. A huge thanks to our guides and the entire Eskapas team for making it all happen so smoothly.
My friend and I had a positive experience and would recommend the company based on the support we received. The staff we interacted with were helpful and responsive throughout the tour. We’re considering booking again in the future. Thanks to the team for their assistance.
Experiencing Pamukkale and Cappadocia was like stepping into another world. The unique rock formations and hot springs of Pamukkale, combined with Cappadocia’s fairy chimneys and vast open landscapes, made each stop feel surreal. Greece added a whole other layer with its incredible music and delicious dishes. I couldn’t get enough of the traditional flavors. As for Athens, it stood out as my favorite city. There’s something magical about being surrounded by so much history and culture. Thanks to the team for this unforgettable journey.
I came home with so many little treasures from the artisan shops we visited in Greece and Turkey. From handmade jewelry to local spices, I felt like I was bringing pieces of my journey back home. The guides knew the best local places not just touristy spots. Where I found unique items and tried some unforgettable street food. It’s like they knew exactly what I needed without me even asking.
The trip was fantastic, with flawless planning throughout. Working with Eskapas company was a pleasure. The historical sites and knowledgeable guides were definitely the most memorable aspects. There’s really nothing I’d change; everything was well organized and enjoyable.
