We've traveled the world and this was one of our best tours ever! It was all last-minute as a prior trip was cancelled. With 3 weeks to go, I found Efedi travel and took a chance. I had a response in 5 minutes and within 20 minutes, our entire trip was planned. Gokay provided 5-star service and communication every step of the way. We selected a private 5-Star tour and it did not disappoint. EVERY detail was planned from airport transfers, flights inside Turkey to Cappadocia and Kusydasi, all tours, tour guides, drivers, some meals, private beautiful vans for just the 2 of us. We made minor plan changes and the team snapped into action. I even left my phone and wallet in the van while rushing to the airport. The team worked to have it flown back to Istanbul where a courier met me at a restaurant returning my phone and wallet. I can't recommend Efendi travel enough...it was perfect. Thank you to Gokay for going over and above and to our guides Ebru, Mostafa, and Yeliz who were extremely knowledgable, fun, spoke perfect English and laughed with us as if we've been friends forever. We will NEVER forget this trip and can't wait to go back. THANK YOU EFENDI!

Efendi Travel Agency with the guidance of Gokay Eskizambak made our trip to Türkiye exceptional. We were impressed with the efficiency and quality of our tours and transportation. As this was our first trip to the Middle East, we were very pleased with the punctuality of all our transportation and transfers. Efendi welcomed us and made it easy to travel around the country. We are well into our retirement and we would find navigating the roads in Türkiye to be extremely challenging however Efendi provided easy, comfortable transportation. As for the tours, we saw the Best of the Best. Gokay acknowledged that we had limited time and that we needed some rest in order take in the magnificence of the country. He prepared a perfect itinerary with all the must see attractions. The tour guides were articulate and the group sizes ranged from 4-14 participants. The restaurants and hotels met our needs and we were treated to a luxurious surprise at MDC Hotel in Urgup, Cappadocia. Our belly’s were full and we slept well, ready for the next day’s adventure. We were thrilled to have everything prearranged and taken care of by Gokay. Lovely that we just had to show up and we floated into a magical dream.

I had the most wonderful time! I made a late request for a highlights tour but I did not want to be in a large group so requested a private tour. I was also on the Asian side of Istanbul and did not want to navigate taxis or public transport without local knowledge. Yusuf Karaca was very accommodating and understanding. He arranged a vehicle to pick me up and drop me off, and a very excellent guide Dilek, with whom I had an amazing experience. Not only was she highly knowledgeable, her passion for history was similar to mine and she gave me so much insight into the history of Turkey that by the end of the day I felt like I was in a movie. The historical characters were brought to life by Dilek and it was as though I had travelled back in time! Thank you both for a memorable day.

Me and my partner visited Istanbul and wanted to travel to other cities of the country. YUSUF KARACA from Efendi was most helpful in arranging transportation, accommodation and tours. He helped us put together an itinerary. We did the usual tours to Ephesus and Cappadocia, then wanted to go solo to Southeastern Türkiye including Gobeklitepe. Yusuf booked the bus tickets for us and the return flight from Mardin to Istanbul. He was in contact all the way. It was very reassuring to know that he’s got our back should something go wrong. In the end, it all went well, and we had a great time. Thank you Yusuf and Efendi!
