3B - AN AUTHENTIC TOUR OF TURKEY ON A BUDGET
17 DAYS
| Our "AUTHENTIC TOUR" is also available in an "ECONOMY BUDGET" version, with only slight differences from Tour 3A itinerary. If you desire to see all, but do not care whether you stay at the best hotels, eat at the finest restaurants and have all of the entertainment included, this tour has been designed especially for you. You will still enjoy the magnificent historic sites and the gorgeous scenery while staying at decent hotels and enjoy good food. This way, you might even have extra cash left over to buy another carpet while in Turkey! We are using First-Class or "best available" hotels in this version of our prominent tour.
