Guests arrive in Istanbul and have the remainder of the day to explore at their leisure. The tour remains in Istanbul overnight.
Day 2 begins with breakfast, followed by an extensive tour of the city, visiting the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, and the Hippodrome. The tour spends a second night in Istanbul.
The tour moves on to the nation’s capital, Ankara, to visit Anitkabir, the mausoleum of the famed Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, before then driving on through the rugged landscape of Cappadocia.
The day’s itinerary of sights include the Goreme Open-Air Museum, the mushroom shaped rock formations of Pasabag, Uchisar Castle and Derinkuyu Underground City. Day 4 finishes off with a Turkish folklore evening, replete with belly dancers.
The tour leaves Cappadocia and embarks on the ancient Silk Road, stopping off at Sultanhani ‘Caravansaray’ (a sort of Asian inn) and the Mevlana museum in Konya along the way. The destination is Pamukkale in preparation for the next day’s activities.
Day 6 starts with a visit to the ruins of Hierapolis, the Necropolis and the Temple of Apollo. Then it’s over to travertines of Pamukkale – terraced pools formed from carbonated mineral deposits – before heading onto the resort town of Kusadasi by way of the small ancient Greek city of Aphrodisias.
The tour reports to Ephesus, site of the Temple of Artemis – one of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the world – and the ancient ruins of the city of Ephesus itself. Turkish handicrafts are on display, and you can visit the reputed site of the Virgin Mary’s final home or inspect the antiquities on display at Selcuk Museum. The tour stops off at a ‘carpet village’ on its way back for a second night spent in Kusadasi.
On the final day of the tour, guests will have time for breakfast before being transferred to the airport for their onward flight.
