Very informative and definitely a must see adventure of Turkey, its beauty of ancient history, archeology and its charming people. Such a wonderful memorable and enjoyable distinctive itinerary. Each destination was stunning and breathtaking. Highly recommend as TOP of any bucket list. Would go again in a heartbeat.
