Rated 4.6 out of 5, based on 150,000+ customer reviews | 
Spilling across the border of Asia and Europe, few countries in the world hold the remarkable blend of cultures found here. Our tours through Turkey take you on a voyage of connection and discovery, as we learn the secrets of the spice markets and visiting religious sites with beauty to rival the Eiffel Tower. We'll move beyond the lively city of Istanbul to find otherworldly landscapes that will stir the soul. In Pamukkale, we'll soak in mineral-dense hot springs that cascade over white limestone pool, while in Cappadocia, a sky of hot air balloons drift above an arid valley of peculiar shapes and caves. From the Archaeology Museum to an encounter with belly dancers, the culture we connect with in Turkey is as alluring as a slice of baklava.

“This is my fifth holiday with Trafalgar and they never disappointed me. Tour guides and drivers very friendly and professional. Accommodation and meals to a good standard. Turkey was an historical tour with a lot of information and visiting some interesting museums, ruins and specially the opportunity to travel in a hot air balloon. I will continue travel with Trafalgar. Thank you.”

“This trip was awesome!! The group director Barcin was excellent and professional, making the trip memorable. He knows the historical facts and I learned a lot. Barcin customized the tour according to the needs of the guests and he was very friendly and patient. The extra touch like the "Be my guest" experience allows me to share with a local family in Cappadocia and learn from them different lifestyles and cultural patterns. Barcin organized the tour very well. We never have problems with the schedule, transportation, or hospitality.”

What to pack for a tour in Türkiye
Consider your environmental impact when you next take a trip and go single-use-plastic-free by packing a reusable water bottle, a steel straw, your own shopping bags and refillable toiletry bottles.
Many nationalities, including US, UK, and EU citizens, don't need a visa to enter Turkey. Check the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs website for the latest visa requirements, which are listed for each country.
For the best balance of weather and crowds, visit Turkey in spring (April to June) when the landscapes are lush and wildflowers bloom, or in autumn (September to November) when the heat subsides, making it perfect for exploring ancient ruins and bustling bazaars.
Turkey has diverse climates, due to its size. Coastal areas have hot Mediterranean summers and mild winters, perfect for a sun-soaked Turkey trip. Inland, however, gets blistering hot in the summer, and far more cold in the winter particularly in Cappadocia and Eastern Turkey.
Turkey uses the Turkish Lira (TRY). Credit cards are widely accepted, but having cash is useful especially in more rural areas.
Tipping 10% in restaurants is common. Small tips for hotel staff and taxi drivers are also appreciated.
Turkey uses Type C and Type F plugs with a voltage of 230V. These are common Europlug types, so you'll need an adaptor if you're coming from North America, the UK or Australia.
ATMs are widely available, but check for transaction fees.
Tap water is generally safe in major cities, but bottled water is recommended.
Light, breathable clothing for summer; warm layers for winter. Remember respectful attire if you want to visit some of Turkey's many religious sites.
You can do a trip to Turkey in 7 days or less if you're just staying in one city or having a beach holiday at the coast. But we recommend longer to see Turkey's diverse beauty, from Istanbul to Cappadocia, Ephesus, and the coast.
We highly recommend guests purchase travel insurance prior to your trip. Please ensure you add the details of your insurance to the MyTrafalgar portal. Your insurance should cover trip interruption, personal injury, medical expenses, and evacuation and repatriation cover including during pandemic events.
Turkey officially changed its international name to Türkiye to reflect its native pronunciation and cultural identity.
