Hello, this is Brandon, we have arrived home now, and I wanted to let you know that everything was fantastic. The hotels, the tours and everything were well above what I expected. I would like to thank you very much for making this the trip of a lifetime!!! Thanks once again Aydin, and if I ever hear of anyone traveling to Turkey or Greece I will most definatly give them your contact information. Have a great day!!!

I just wanted to send off a quick note to let you know how much Lauren and I enjoyed our trip to Turkey, which was organized by you. First of all, our accommodations (Amira Hotel Istanbul) were wonderful! The staff was excellent, the breakfast was superb, the beds and shower were great!! The location was terrific; we really enjoyed all that was around our area. Our trip to Ephesus went off without a hitch; pickups, flights and tour were all wonderful. We loved Istanbul and would like to visit more of Turkey someday. We will be sure to contact you if we do! Again, thank you for all your efforts in making our time in Turkey so special; it really is an amazing country. Kindest Regards Barb.

Aydin, Terry and I have returned home from a fantastic trip to Greece and your country, Turkey. We learned so much about your ancient and modern history. I'm still amazed at how seemless all the connections were. The transfers and tours (at least 15 total) were always on time and professional. The hotels were good, some better than others. We especially liked the Iliomaris in Mykonos. Thank you for doing such a great job arranging this last minute vacation for us! Sincerely, Tony.

We are now back in Canada and very much missing the hustle and bustle of Turkey and its people. Thank you very much for all your assistance with coordinating and booking our travel arrangements and making all the various decisions involved with such a unique tour easy for us. We were so impressed with your attention to details, your support during our time there and valuable suggestions that made a big difference in our enjoyment. Please thank all the people involved with making this trip wonderful for us, especially Ebrahim and Huseyin, and we know we will be back some day soon! Warm regards, Zaynab

I want to thank you very much for the wonderful vacation. All the arrangements were very good. Tour Guide was excellent. I am sure I will be contacting you again for our next years vacation. We also thank you for taking care of the necessary refund for the services in Cape Town which we could not do due to very bad weather. Again thanks for all the arrangements and we appreciate all. The dinner arrangements were the ones that I was concerned about, but they turned out to be very good. As usual if you want to use my name for reference please free to do so. Thanks, Hasmukh.

Thanks for your cooperation and for arranging an excellent trip for me and my wife. We had a great trip to Turkey. We also sincerely appreciate your having come to Kusadasi. Whenever you decide to come to India please do let me come to know. Regards Rajesh.

I have been meaning to let you know that we had a fantastic trip and to thank you for getting it all set up for us. Everybody had a great time and we really were impressed with our guide and all of the drivers and people that we met. Being able to travel without a large group was definitely the best way for us. The hotels on Mykonos and Santorini were beautiful and great choices. Brian was very excited when we ended up with our own private pool at St. Johns. Thanks again, and we will definitely contact you if we are going to travel in the area in the future. Melissa.

We just want to thank you for all your help, everything was excellent: the hotels, the pick ups, people were very punctual always specially in Athens it is very nice to find the person at the baggage hall. We appreciate your efforts as well as from your partner agency in Athens because you looked for the best in our posibilities and being so professional. Do not hesitate we will contact you for future holidays to Turkey or Egypt. Paulina.

Yes we are back home again. My email is to send you our sincere thanks for all your organisation for our trip. Everything you sent and organised went as planned. Everything turned up at the pre designated address and pickups etc were all on time. We had a lovely time in Istanbul and Kusadasi. Got lots of trinkets from the markets. We met some people to whom I recommended your services. One couple is from Canada. They may be in contact with you and will mention my name so you will know it is them. The other couple are from OZ who will also mention my name. Hope they contact you. We will be sure to do the same for our next trip.

We are back at home now, and wanted to let you know that overall the trip was a great success. Alice was very responsive and helpful - she really did an amazing job keeping track of everything for us while we were in Greece. We also wanted to thank you for all of your hard work in organizing everything. Please feel free to use us as a reference in the future.We were most pleased with the Marianna Pension in Naplion, the Amalia Hotel in Delphi, and the Porto Fira Suites in Santorini. The transfer arrangements went off perfectly smoothly, and having all the tickets and vouchers was extremely helpful too. A question: do you only make arrangements for Greece and Turkey, or do you work in other countries as well (i.e. Spain, Italy)? Oh yes - the Mykonos Palace Hotel was truly fabulous as is their restaurant Notos. The beach itself at Platis Gialos was also quite wonderful - we hope to return there sometime.

Hi - I've been meaning to e-mail and thank you all summer! My son and I had a GREAT trip and I want to thank you again for your help. Everything went very smoothly. I wanted to let you know that I would be happy to have you use me as a reference if you'd like. I loved Turkey! I actually wish we would have spent the entire 2 weeks there! I'll just have to come back sometime!! The people in Turkey were very nice and helpful. You have a beautiful country and lots to be proud of. I evenn found myself cheering for your soccer team and clapping when your athletes walked in during the Olympics! Best regards to you, Kate.

Hello Mr. Sekerin. I just wanted to thank you for arranging this wonderful trip. The details were followed to the letter. The arrangements were very good. Hotels were all nice. Transportation drivers were very punctual, helpful and courteous. I want to especially thank tour guides Latifa in Istanbul, Idil in Izmir (very very knowledgable and patient) and Maria in Athens. Thanks once again. Hope to see you soon on another trip. May be you can suggest a trip like this next year. Daulat.

We arrived home last night about 10:00 pm, tired, but with smiles on our faces. Everything went very well - took very good care of us. We greatly appreciate everything you did for us. The arrangements were perfect. Once I get my head cleared from the travel home I will write a letter of recommendation for you to have on file for further client possibilities.Thanks again, Richard and Linda.

I have thanked my daughter three or four times for the lovely trip we had and all the attentions received. I admire your high level organization and the people you chose for this job. I also thank you very much for your help and hope we can count on your support for future travels. Next year we plan to visit Sarah and some countries nearby.

We wish to thank you once more for arranging our tour of Turkey, Greece and Egypt: everything went well, and we were very satisfied with the trip. We would like to visit more of Turkey next year (and perhaps some former soviet Union countries), will contact you at the appropriate moment to see if other tours can be arranged. With warm regards, Ralph and Sonia

Aydin, thank you very much! We came back last night. Just to let you, the trip was very good. You delivered everything you promised. An excellent job. Also our guide in Budapest was excellent. Appreciate all your help. My group wants to know where should we go next year??

I wanted to send this note to thank you for all your hard work in making our trip to Greece one we will always remember. You answered the hundreds of questions we had promptly and never got upset when we would ask for alternatives or change our minds several times. We were extremely satisfied with your advice on what islands to go to and your selection of hotels. They were just what we were looking for. The transfers were always there waiting for us and everything from start to finish went very smoothly. I don't know too many travel agents that give out their cell phone numbers just in case we had problems. I would not hesitate to highly recommend you to our friends and any others that are thinking of traveling to Greece. Thank you again and do not hesitate to use us as a reference!

We are back in the U.S. after our wonderful trip to Greece. I want to compliment you on the excellent choices you made for our small group. The three hotels were wonderful. The Athens hotel was very simple but the location was perfect! The Naphlion hotel was the absolute high point of the tour! We loved the rooms, the service and the location! The Delphi area hotel was nice because we needed the pool to stay cool in the heat of the region. The two vans worked out very well for us and the rental car was very helpful. They were very accommodating and the cars were in good condition. I appreciate your willingness to offer us so many choices as we decided where to go in Greece and the nice choices you made once we decided. If you need a reference for future clients in the USA I am glad to be of assistance. Thank you, Jodi

Just want to thank you for everything that you did in arranging our trip and being available during. We had an amazing time. Everything worked out exactly the way you had told us. Every transfer was perfect and everyone was very nice and helpful. We did not have to worry about being picked up on time and someone was always there meeting us at every location. The hotels were all great. The St. John's in Mykonos was truly 5 star and absolutely beautiful. The rooms were really nice and the entire property was perfect. The Villa Reno was such a fun place to stay. The views were incredible as was the location. The people that own the hotel were great and we had so much fun talking to the son who mainly runs the hotel. The Marmara Hotel in Istanbul was very nice and a great location but the rooms are small. The Intercontinental was really nice with very large rooms, a great pool and an excellent restaurant. Well anyway, thank you so much again and I will definitely contact you when we plan our next trip to Greece and will recommend your services to anyone planning a trip to Greece or Turkey. Sincerely Emert.

We had a great time at Istanbul and Greece - one of the best holidays that I had. The hotel arrangement, transfer etc were well organised, especially Saint John hotel at Mykonos is magnificant, Dana Villas at Santorini has such breathtaking views, also good view at Marmara Istanbul. Excellent choices. Only issue that SuperJet ferry from Mykonos to Santorini was delayed for 2.5hrs. Anyway overall it was a great arrangement. Thank you and if I plan for another trip around the area, I will definitely contact you and will refer you to any of my friends who is planning to visit the area. Best regards, Sally.

Just to let you know that we had a wonderful time in Turkey - everthing worked out really well - we hope to come back someday as 7days was definetely not enough. Thanks very much for all your help - tours and tour guides were all great - very professional, courteous and on time. We shall definetely recommend your company to our friends - kindly keep us on your list for future specials especially Turkey and Europe. Please if you do come to Canada, do look us up - Iunderstand you love fishing - my husband is an avid fishermen - two of you can exchange some fish stories. Once again thanks and we wish you all the best, Nazlin.

I have been meaning to write to you after returning from out trip. We must say that this was an impeccably planned trip, and we loved every minute of it! I know I have said this many times, but THANK YOU for your utmost professionalism and truly looking out for us during the two weeks. Thank you again, and I will be sure to recommend your agency to our friends who plan to visit that part of the world!

I just want to let you know that everyone in my group was very happy with all the arrangements you were able to provide us. Everything was great. You did deliver what we agreed upon and in some cases even more. Please feel free to use my name anytime for reference. I am sure I will be contacting you again for our next vacation. Again appreciate all you did to make our vacation a wonderfull experience.

We are pleased to comment on the services you provided during our recent trip to Greece and Turkey. We were very satisfied with the itinerary and the arrangements. Your company did an excellent job in seeing that all went well, even when our express ferry could not leave Santorini. The accomodations selected were very pleasant. We especially wish to thank you for the upgrade at the Lycos River Hotel. We would especially like to commend our guide and driver during the Turkey portion of the trip. Both proved not only to be well informed and knowledgeable, but excellent traveling companions. We were a group of seven that soon became a group of nine. We would not hesitate to use your agency again for any trip to that area and willingly recommend your agency to anyone traveling in that direction. Thank you once again for excellent, personal service that made our trip an outstanding adventure. Joe & Nancy

The trip was absolutely wonderful. Everything that was listed on the itinerary occurred right on target just as you said it would. The trip was planned with a lot of fore thought for shopping, eating, watching, travelling and good leisure time. We did not feel rushed at all. I wish now that we had left some time for Turkey, but I didn't want to bite off too much and I certainly would not have left anything off our trip. I would like to thank you for attending to our trip as if it were your own. I would be happy to give positive testimonials to anyone that asks for your credibility and ability. We are very happy with the results of our travelling and will get in touch with you when we are in that area again. I would happily return- Greece has so much history and so much to see and do as I am sure Turkey does as well.

I want to thank you for a wonderful trip to Greece. Everything you planned for us worked out great. The transfers, the tour to Delphi, the flights to and from Santorini and the hotels in Athens and Santorini were just what we wanted. Dana Villas was perfect. They even let us stay in the upgraded room all four nights. The Titania Hotel was very nice too. We will not hesitate to promote your services whenever we hear someone is planning a trip to Greece. If you have a supervisor, please let them know how much we appreciated your help in planning our trip. Again, everything was perfect! Thank you so much. P.S. I want to go back!

We came back last night after an excellant trip. Everything went very well, all the tour guides and drivers were excellant, the countries were great, the food was excellant and the people were very friendly. All the hotels, the Kibbutz in Israel and the boats were GREAT. You did a fantastic job and we want to thank you very very much. The Agent in Tel Aviv also told us that you have got in touch with her to find out how we were doing, this is so very nice from you and we really appreciate everything you have done for us. This trip is a trip that we won't forget it was just too wonderful and perfect. Also everything and everybody were on time so it was nice, we did not have to worry about a thing. Again thank you for everything. It was a Dream Trip , thanks to you. Sincerely Martine.

We just want to thank you for our wonderful time in Greece and Turkey. Everything was just fine. Your country is really beautiful & we hope to get back sometime. All the guides and drivers you sent were great, especially the lady in the Ephesus day, she was wonderful. Congratulate her for us. So, thank you once more and hope to travel with your agency again. Marcelo & Luiza.

I wanted to thank you for a wonderful trip you put together. It was a pleasure working with someone as professional and accomadating as yourself and would happily recommend your services to anyone. Any time I can help in any way, you have my e-mail. All the hotels were great. I would highly recommend the Aldemar in Rhodes if anyone asks. My offer stands to show you New York City if you are ever over this way. We enjoyed the trip so much we know we will be returning and I will look forward to work with you again. I know you went well beyond what could be expected and we really appreciate it. Thanks again, Fred.

I just wanted to drop you a line to tell you what an amazing trip we had. I am very impressed with your travel agency and will refer you always. We did not know what to expect and having you taking care of us made everything run smoothly. Thank you and I look forward to working with you again:-) Denise.

Martina and I would like to thank you for the wonderful package you put together for us. It was a great experience and we had a lovely time. I would like to thank you for your professionalism, and the effort that you put forth in constantly adjusting the itinerary to our needs. We will certainly recommend you to our family and friends who choose to tour greece or Turkey. We will keep in touch as we would like to return to the islands and perhaps Turkey. Many thanks and best regards. Sal and Martina.

I wanted to send you a quick follow up note to say "thank you" for coordinating a GREAT vacation. Bob and I had a wonderful time during our 2 weeks in Turkey. We appreciate all of your hard work in organizing all of the tours and transfers. Everything went as planned. Thanks again, and we will definitely recommend your agency to our friends if they travel to Turkey.

Linda and I want to offer our thanks to you to all of your staff for a magnificent trip to Greece, the isle of Crete, and to Turkey. You arranged the perfect trip after we described our specific interests in early Christian frescos and mosaics, the Mycenaec and Bronze age culture, and of course the classical Greek and Byzantine cultures. In addition to touching the walls of Troy and Mycenae and the many well known and visited sites, you arranged so much more. Each day was a great adventure, personalized for two people you had never met. Istanbul is beyond description and our guide Cemal was wonderful. You selected ideal hotels for our stays in Athens, Crete, Istanbul, Assos, and Selcuk. The village of Assos was a wonderful surprise. We wish we could have spent more time in this Turkish heaven. All of your arranged guides were excellent. We at all times felt safe and each day closed with a wonderful meal and a restful sleep. Aydin, please accept our deepest gratitude. I would be so pleased to be able to answer any questions from possible clients or agents in North America. Linda and I wish you our very best. Warmest thanks, Kevin and Linda.

I am home and even adjusted back to the time in AZ. As we reflected on this FABULOUS trip, we agreed on several things to tell you. First of all, we both LOVED Turkey and came away with really strong feelings about the 2 weeks spent there. Part of that may be because we really LOVED our PRIVATE tour with Hussein and Cemal !!!! They made those 6 days very special! But we also loved the fact that everywhere we went your country was IMMACULATE (which was not as true in Greece). The people were warm and friendly (except some rug salesman !!!). The food was DELICIOUS, the ruins were spectacular and shopping was wonderful. We enjoyed our visit to all of the Greek isles, but in hindsight we might want to do that differently. Instead of cruise we might prefer taking the FAST ferry to Myknos, Santorini, and Rhodes and spending 2 (or even 3) nights on each of those islands. We were glad that I had indicated our desire to spend more time on Mykonos and you accomodated that. We really enjoyed the 2 days there!!! We really wished we could have spent more time on Santorini - and knew why many people got off the ship there and stayed a few days! Our overall feelings about Greece were not as strong as those for Turkey. We are not sure if that is because we did Turkey FIRST and loved the PRIVATE tour so much or we would have felt this way even if Greece had been our first country! I live in a community where lots of retirees travel a great deal. I hope when they hear me rave about Turkey and YOU that I will be able to recommend you to more customers!!!! Please give my best to Cemal and your wife - that evening remains one of the highlights of the trip !!!! I do hope you will write!!! Warmly, Joan.

We are home and still in awe. Had a great time. The program you designed was great and flawless. Got my pictures and can't believe how much ground we have covered in such a short time. I will be sending you some maple syrup as soon as I can. Hope you will be able to visit my family and of course Canada. Blessings, Suna.
