Kusadasi Friends Packages

When we decided to visit Turkiye during end of March, it was well known that it is off-season and the best time to visit was during spring ie. April-May. But, other constraints have compelled us to plan the trip from 24-March 2024 to 03-April 2024. No regrets as Turkiye is always beautiful and well explorable. The initial discussions were over with Mr Abhishek Gupta from Offbeat Trippers and finally we have decided to go with their offer for the 11 day tour covering Istanbul, Kappadocia, Kusadasi, Pamukkale, Antalya and back to Istanbul. We kept one day on reserve in Antalya for exploring the beautiful beaches and one day for Istanbul in the end to complete shopping. The tour plan covered all major attractions with internal flights and all airport transfers and hotel accommodations. Daily tours were planned meticulously with perfect time schedules. Daily tours were well executed, mostly in small and comfortable groups, and some of the tour guides were par above excellence. All the parameters were fulfilled in a perfect way without giving a chance for any complaints. Accommodation we chose was all 3-star as we will be in the hotel just for the sleep in the late night and moving out in the early mornings. Those who are very particular about the room size and location may opt 4-star or 5 star accommodations. Turkiye is a place which should be in the bucket list of every travel enthusiast as it gives an awesome and different experience. People are mostly very good and supportive and any other response may be just because of the frustrations as the country is passing through severe inflation. It was all perfectly planned and executed, we could cover the entire stretch as planned without much difficulties. Appreciate Mr Abhishek Gupta for his interactions and availability almost round the clock for any clarifications. If I start writing about the detail itinerary and everyday experiences, pages will not be sufficient here. I just want to say that Turkiye is fantastic and fabulous welcoming you and never skip if you get a chance to visit Turkiye. Big applauses to Offbeat Trippers who made it all possible and I am signing of with utmost satisfaction.

Amazing trip to Turkey - Istanbul, Cappadocia, Kusadasi and Pamukkale with Travel Lykke. Rahul helped me with the initial hotel and itinerary planning. The Support team consisting of both Turkish travel partners and coordinators from Lykke were connected throughout on WhatsApp. It was a pleasant experience interacting with the Support team handling unexpected situations like change of hotels at the last minute (for no fault of theirs), or managing to get a direct flight instead of a connecting flight (that saved us loads of time and energy). The flight and hotel transfers were impeccably managed. The tour guides were knowledgeable and shared lots of history and details about the tours. Overall, an unforgettable trip with incredible memories

Trip booking and negotiations on travel triangle was smooth and done swiftly. Price was decent and I liked the approach of travel agent, who unhesitatingly and tirelessly worked to fit the itinerary in our budget. However during trip faced multiple issues due to which I have given 4 stars. Firstly had to follow up multiple times to agent for travel, cab and tour vouchers during tour. Details should have been provided earlier but agent chose to provide them just 1 day prior. Thank god we had international roaming! Secondly, for Istanbul city tour agent arranged a tour entirely different from itinerary. Instead of city tour they gave us a cruise tour which didn't cover all the sightseeings. However after multiple follow ups and calls, they arranged for the tour which was promised. And lastly, inspite of our tickets being included in tour cost, they made us pay INR 4500 for Pamukkale sightseeing tickets. This was unwarranted and took us by surprise. Though they said they will refund the cost, they have not provided any solution as yet in last 7 days. Other than these hiccups I have good memories in the trip and booking on Cheap Travellers with agent Nishant Sinha. Best places are Istanbul and Kusadasi for lots of sightseeing and fun experiences. Cappadocia is dusty and nothing much except expensive hot air balloon. Pamukkale pools are much hyped, walking is difficult let alone swimming in them. I will suggest to stay in Istanbul atleast 3Nights, and rent a self drive car. Indian license is valid here. Stay away from grand bazaar, it's for Europeans not Indians! However shops outside grand bazaar are much better. City stays awake late, so get an Istanbul pass and hop around on trams and metros, avoiding cabs as much as possible

I want to Thank Abhishek ( Offbeat trippers) for the trip, He planned each day scheduled with all the hotels, taxis, and tours. I am surprised to see the punctuality of all the people of turkey, I never faced any difficulty while staying or traveling. It was a 9-day trip as follows Istanbul - 2 night Cappadocia - 2 night Kusadasi - 2 night Antalya - 2 night All the places were beautiful and I enjoyed my stay very much.

The tour was very well organised by Abhishek Gupta (Offbeat Trippers) covering all the main attractions and taking our input. Different guides who were part of our travel were very knowledgeable and their explanations helped us to understand the history and culture of Turkey. The choice of hotels were very good except the one in Antalya. Hotel in Istanbul( Recital Park Hotel) is right in the city centre and was at walkable distance to the important sites like Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar etc. We stayed in a cave house in Cappadocia( Dervish Cave House) which was a different experience altogether! The staff were very polite and helpful. The hotel we stayed in Kusadasi ( Efe boutique hotel) was having a great view with its own nice restaurant with scenic view.and was the best among all the hotels! Even though the hotel in Antalya (Best Western Khan plus) was at a convenient location with everything within walking range. But, the hotel was not up to the expectation. Meals provided during the whole tour were not so great. But, the local cuisines are worth experiencing of your own. We totally recommend this tour especially with Offbeat trippers if you want it to be hassle free and as promised in the itinerary. Thanks Offbeat trippers for the wonderful experience!

We had a great trip. It was very well planned and the overall experience was excellent. Pros: - The day tours were seamlessly planned. - Domestic flights were booked very well (evening/night flights) , it gave us time to explore the places more. - Hotels were all really good except palm hotel in Kusadasi. Locations of all the hotels were very near to the tourist areas or old city area. - Rajat was available throughout the tour over call, even though he was in India but not once we faced problems as such. - We covered so many cities, so many different locations. Cons: - The transfers from Airport could be made smoother, perhaps by making a WhatsApp group with the agency coming for the pickup. Since driver's number is not provided, it gets little difficult to spot the driver at the airport. Overall, I would like to say thanks to Rajat and his team but all the arrangements.

My overall experience of Turkey was awesome..njoyed the Bday special trip. The hotels we're good quite still well connected with the market place..in Istanbul it was zeynep sultan which was like 100 to 400 mt away from all the old city attractions like hagia Sofia, blue mosque, spice Bazaar etc. and market place is close by lots of good places to eat. In Cappadocia it was heaven cave which was again a good choice I felt the staff was very polite breakfast variety was okay but again close to market place. In Kusadasi it was efe boutique hotel which I liked a lot with small balcony with water front view.. close to market again yet maintain the pease. The tour suggested by Abhishek from White rabbit was excellent however I was traveling with kid so had to skip some tour cos of his comfort.. only struggle a bit on the domestic flight time..the tour most of the time ended between 3-5 pm but the flight time was somewhere between 8:30 to 9:30 so by the time you reach the destination it's too late..and you had to be out entire day.. check out from hotel in morning then tour and wait on airport (some time connecting flights)and transfer to your new hotel..it's too tiring.except the domestic flight time everything was well planned and the follow up Abhishek did not even before the trip while we were on the trip was commendable haven't seen it earlier in any of my trips. would definitely recommend him. Thank you Abhishek Bosphorus Cruise, spice bazaar shopping, Cappadocia hot air balloon, pamukkale.

It was a memorable Trip covering four major cities of Turkey, well organised by White Rabbit. Cappadocia and Kusadasi are the best cities to explore and stay in Turkey.

Excellent trip with very nice coordination: We went with our family. Me and my wife and a little 2 years old kid. we were very happy the way it has been organised and we have been given all the details in advance. when we arrived in turkey Cappadocia we were really amazed by looking at the hotel and hotel room. Next day sightseeing was also very nice and it was done in a very comfortable bus coach. we spent in kapadokya three days and the guide, who was with us for this trip was extremely polite and very informative. after kapadokya we went to Izmir and it was also a very smooth pick up at the middle of the night. someone was waiting for us in the airport who drove to our hotel and helped us a lot in his midnight. we spent about three days in Kusadasi and the tour operator here was also excellent. the last day was in Pamukkale lake, the trip was excellent and very well-managed however the local tour operator was not very efficient in terms of time management. We highly recommend this tour operator for your journey next time. Abhishek took care of your journey and all the rest. We are really happy the way it was overall managed.

Our entire trip to Turkey was planned by the pickyourtrail team. Their support and dedication is highly commendable. We had a hassle-free tour and each of our needs were specially taken care. From the itinerary to the visa processing to the 24/7 support while we were in Turkey was well coordinated and done. Most importantly they have a kick-ass app !!! Hot air balloon ride above the fairy chimneys in Cappadocia. Our cave house hotel specially chosen by PYT team was fantabulous! Our hotel at Kusadasi was overlooking the beach, the best sight to wake up to. Our hotel at Sultanahmet was close to the most prominent architectural wonder!!
