Turkey with TurFantastik

Regarding tours to Turkey, a reader (Feb. ’07, pg. 67) recommended Mehmet Ozbalci of TurFantastik (Millet cad. Inan Is Hani No: 5/ 610, Aksaray, Istanbul, Turkey; phone [90] 212 589 3325).

We engaged Mehmet in a 14-day private tour for 10 people in an air-conditioned Mercedes van, April 1-15, 2008. The price was $1,800 per person, not including airfare.

The tour was well organized and informative and set at an enjoyable pace. The accommodations were excellent as was the food.

Mehmet spoke excellent English, was well versed and would accommodate changes according to our desires. I would recommend him without hesitation.
