Fikret Erkan - best driver ever! - We booked a welcome pickup for arrival into Istanbul. Our driver Fikret arrived on time with excellent communication (he contacted me the day before arrival and also whilst we were navigating the arrival hall). His mini bus is a very nice and roomy Mercedes Vito. We talked via What’s App and we became friendly very quickly. We then booked our return Journey with Fikret. He’s a very safe and cautious driver with a wonderful attitude and sense of humor. We subsequently decided to book a private trip to the Gallipoli peninsula to see the Anzac memorial. Fikret arranged for an excellent guide. The trip is a long day but you can stop whenever you want, have meals and the minibus is so comfortable. There’s always cold water available and also charging facilities for your phone. It is expensive for 2 people though the van can seat up to 8 if needed. The group tours would have been a bit cheaper for 2 people but certainly not the flexibility or the personalised service. Highly recommend this man.

Gallipoli - Our guide polite, willing and suited to showing us over the Gallipoli battlefields. All I could hope for. It's a long long day from Istanbul and back and recommend a two day return trip from Cannakale next time.
