Review for Tripster (local tour operator, Turkey) - Turkey was on my bucket list way back in the 80's and I finally got around to going in 2026. Even though these are 'roads less travelled,' it was safe and thoroughly enjoyable, without the usual 'tourist traps' with commissions or price hikes. It is advisable to book internal flights while you are in Turkey as it is cheaper. The payment for my excursions were securely sent to Tripster and the 8 day tour with them was an opportunity of a lifetime. I awakened daily to the majestic wonders of archeological significance of the Eastern Anatolia and Mesopotamia regions, including the warmth and hospitality of the local people. I was able to weave these magical experiences into appreciating the diversity of a rich and beautiful world. The exceptional scenery and weather (springtime, April) were an additional bonus. Shanin, my guide, was patient, kind, informative, and an absolute asset for this remarkable journey through history. Pack lightly and go now!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Valentine’s Trip - My husband and I joined this tour for Valentine’s Day, and honestly, it was one of the best travel decisions we’ve made. Everything was very well organized, and we didn’t have to worry about a single detail. The itinerary is quite full, but in a good way — we saw so many incredible places, from Cappadocia to Mount Nemrut and Göbeklitepe. Each stop had its own atmosphere and story, and it never felt rushed. A very special thank you to our guide, Marina. She was absolutely wonderful — friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable. She explained everything clearly and made the history come alive. You can tell she really loves what she does, and that makes a big difference. The hotels were comfortable, transportation was smooth, and overall everything felt professional but still personal. It was such a special way to celebrate Valentine’s Day — beautiful landscapes, fascinating history, and great company. Would definitely recommend this tour!
