Of course, capital city Istanbul is firmly on the beaten path, as are the big sights Cappadocia, the ancient ruins of Ephesus and the travertines of Pamukkale, which are the must for Turkey visits. But it’s also easy to get off the beaten path in Turkey – basically just head inland. It’s a huge country. The coastline (particularly the SW corner) is more Westernized than other parts of the country, making it a great introduction to Turkey for newbies. It’s a popular summer holiday destination for many people from Europe and the Middle East and is easy to navigate for independent travelers as well as package tourists.  Fun, good value excursions and English-speakers are easy to find – making it an excellent proposition for solo travelers. If you’re apprehensive about solo travel in Turkey, here are some go-to destinations where you’ll find everything you need for a stress free solo trip with Eskapas. See also train travels

A combination of factors make Central Anatolia a pleasant region  to visit: The vast plateau of Central Anatolia (Asia Minor), broken by mountains ranges, is the heartland of modern Turkey. The Central Anatolian plateau (altitude 1000 to 2000 meters, 3300 to 6500 feet) holds the incredible “moonscape” terrain of Cappadocia, as well as cities founded by the Hittites 3000 years ago, and even older settlements dating back an incredible 7500 years. The region boasts striking scenery, fine museums, hundreds of Roman archeological sites, and—my favorite—medieval Seljuk Turkish (ie, pre-Ottoman) mosques and caravanserais.

Why Turkey Group Tours?

For travelers that are looking for an easy but inspired way to experience the turkey, touring is the perfect option. So the real question is why not?

With getting time away from work and your ‘normal’ life becoming more and more difficult, your time off is more valuable and precious than it’s ever been. Absolutely nobody has time for mediocre experiences and modern-day touring has adapted to fit these requirements. Nowadays group tours can be anything and everything: what you do, depends solely on you. The point is, modern-day group travel has evolved to provide you with the kind of authentic life-enriching experiences you deserve. And at Eskapas, we consider it our primary mission to connect you to these one-of-a-kind experiences. 

Local guides

A guide is your professional historian, therapist, accountant, event manager, a foreign currency expert and professional friend. Tour guides are the very definition of “going the extra mile.” Whether you have a free evening in Istanbul or are trying to decide between hiking or balloon riding in Cappadocia, your guide is there to offer unique recommendations and insights that only a local would know.

Hassle-free travel

Booking a tour takes the hassle out of planning since every detail is sorted out before you even arrive in your starting city. With transportation, accommodation, most meals and sightseeing included, there’s very little left to coordinate and plan. You’ll enjoy effortlessly moving from point A to B, without having to worry how far away the next gas station is or if you just took a wrong turn.

No dull moments

When you travel on your own, you often find yourself face deep in maps and guidebooks. If you’ve rented a car then you’re spending time in an office comparing rates and sorting out foreign insurance plans. But why spend a moment of your vacation on the tedious bits? Tours come designed to make even the most routine elements, like a bus journey, valuable experiences thanks to your guide’s stories. 

Meet fellow travelers

With group tours, travelers can enjoy a built-in group of friends; sharing experiences with like-minded individuals is a major highlight of touring! For travelers setting out on a private tour, there are still plenty of opportunities to make connections with other visitors and locals alike – striking up conversations and forging bonds is easier when you’re sharing similar experiences!

Plenty of free time

Most of our tours have full many free time for travelers to discover a new destination on their own and do things that may not be included on the itinerary. You’ll find unique experiences that have the perfect blend of flexibility and structure.

Budgeting made simple

No matter if you’re looking to invest some serious money in your next trip or you’re more of a backpacker, booking a tour creates a simple budgeting experience. Consult the itinerary to check the inclusions and you’ll know exactly how much that trip will cost you. Depending on the tour you can typically expect transportation, accommodation, meals and local experiences to be included in the price. No hidden or surprise cost!
