Turkish people are among the friendliest in the world, but still Turkey is not the easiest country to explore on your own. First of all, you can’t speak the language. Even the simplest thing can be an ordeal unless you can communicate. Then the big problem: You don’t know where to visit. Turkey is the cradle of civilisations, and without a knowledgeable tourguide, all that history can be rather confusing. How about when you are hungry? You don’t know what and where to eat. Public transportation might look a bit scary for beginners, too.
Why choose the hard way? A private tour is the easiest and best way of discovering Turkey! Come and join Tours and Talks in Turkey on a private tour, or on a private lecture, and let your guide make travel easy for you!
Walk along the cobblestone streets in the Old City of Istanbul while listening to the stories of the sultans and their concubines, or marvel at the Byzantine mosaics depicting Jesus Christ! Sit in the Great Theatre in Ephesus, and discuss the Birth of Tragedy! Explore the ancient sites of Asia Minor... Swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Turquoise Coast after visiting off-the-beaten-path settlements! Hike among the fairy chimneys and see the rock-cut churches decorated with amazing frescoes in Cappadocia! And don’t forget your guide makes all the difference!

Did You Know?
Sarcophagus is the combination of two Greek words meaning flesh-decaying. In a town called Assos, the local stone made of andesite decays flesh easily, and tomb boxes were made out of that stone, and named “sarcophagus”. Right now when we say sarcophagus, we refer to any kind of box shaped tombs regardless of the material used.
