Turkey Tours & Holidays

Overflowing with Mediterranean energy and Middle Eastern hospitality, Turkey feels like a continent unto itself.

With Greco-Roman ruins, sun-drenched Turquoise Coast, tiny hillside villages, delicately decorated minarets, and the world’s most spectacular historic mosques – Turkey is impossible to pigeonhole. If you know where to look among the shifting mountain backdrops, you’ll find one-of-a-kind sights and experiences that set up camp in your heart. Break bread (and the fast) with new friends during Ramazan in the courtyard of the 17th century Blue Mosque. Explore the hand-forged cave churches of Cappadocia in a landscape of towering wind-carved fairy chimneys. Sink your teeth into a gozleme filled with vegies you pulled from the dirt yourself. Discover Turkey with a local who is passionate about the land they call home.

Excellent introduction to a beautiful country. Action packed tour but Tarik was an extremely patient and knowledgeable tour leader. Would definitely recommend.

Turkey Highlights

As an older, solo, female traveler, I was not sure how I would fit in on an Intrepid tour. But our group of 8 was split evenly between older and younger people, and they were a great bunch to travel and explore with. Türkiye is a beautiful, friendly country and I have been inspired by its history and landscape. Our guide Tarik was integral to the great time we all had - friendly, patient, chilled, and a great source of knowledge.

Taste of Istanbul

Alejandro · Traveled January 2024
Alp, my tour guide, was amazing!!! Great energy, and knowledge about city landmarks and history. He went out of his way more than once to show me even more places and experiences than what was included in the tour, beyond his duties, and spending his personal time to make sure I saw as much as possible of Istanbul. Definitely a great tour to get a taste of this iconic city.
