Thank you for a hugely enjoyable and unique tour.  

​

We travelled to places most tourists don’t go, enjoying the history, archaeology, cultures, religions and friendly people of Eastern Turkey.  

 

In many places we visited there was a total lack of developed tourism which was a welcome relief. The ancient places and archaeological sites we visited brought history alive for me.  It was great to feel like a traveller rather than a tourist amongst the multitude. 

 

If it weren’t  for the Mercedes van and pleasant accommodation, I could almost imagine being Gertrude Bell or T.E. Lawrence exploring Mesopotamia.  

The journey was a perfect balance of adventure, comfort and small group companionship.  

 

Michael, you always did a great job on the sidelines, forever calm, making sure that everything went well.  You and Kaylene were jointly vigilant in ensuring the smooth progression of the trip.

I had expected that this would be my final trip to a Turkey but instead I’ve come away with an awareness of the richness of Eastern Anatolian cultures and a desire to return.
