Fantastic 5.0
the agency planned very well everything. since it was my first time using agency to travel and also with my mom, I was worried but at the end trip was well organised, as per the schedule driver picked up, flights were arranged well with meal. one thing could improve would be tour guide and more explanation about the places and locations we are going through. but all good and value for money (much convenient way to see things in short period)

Everything went exactly as described on "KLOOK." This was very impressive! If you have any issues with the airport pick-up or drop-off, proactively contact the tour operator on WhatsApp; they are very quick to respond. This was very reassuring! Overall, it was a great travel experience, and I would recommend it to my friends and family!

I came to Istanbul alone and wanted to travel to the most essential places in a short period of time with the most reasonable time and cost. I used this guide program and I am very satisfied. First of all, the guide, Burak, sent me a reminder text message about the meeting place the day before, and he arrived early in the morning and was able to quickly complete the schedule. Burak is very knowledgeable about Ottoman and Roman history, and he provided rich storytelling even when moving between tour locations, and he explained everything I was curious about without hesitation. Above all, I felt his passion for his guiding work, and he carefully considered recommending food and places that would be helpful for my travel itinerary. I highly recommend Burak's guided tour!

Participated in this tour while traveling in Istanbul. Putting the tour review aside for a moment, I first want to commend the exceptional service provided by the Operations Manager, who is also the co-owner of the organizing company, bellaturca.com. The 2-day tour itinerary covered almost all of the major tourist attractions in Goreme, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The tour guide was friendly, and I was satisfied with the lunch, which allowed me to fully enjoy Turkish cuisine. If I had to nitpick, I would only regret my lack of English proficiency (lol). I opted for the early morning hot air balloon tour option the day after my stay, and this is a must-do when you come to Cappadocia. I would recommend the actual experience to others. As for the tour price, I'm not sure what the standard is, but I had a great experience participating through Klook.

There are other t&c that you learn once you board the cruise ship. The choices of food and drinks is limited under the package. Any other choice of drink or food outside standard menu is chargable. The standard menu is very basic and this could be made clear in offer package. It is a good experience tough, however there are sevral company that offer such packages with differnt ship size and style. I suggest to do research and then decide to get true value of your money.

Very nice experience. I deducted 1 star because of some difficulties in redeeming the voucher. The one you receive on the mobile version is not sufficient. You need 4 QR codes (2 people - 2 for the outbound and 2 for the return). But the staff on site are very friendly and helpful. As a result, you should arrive at least 15 to 20 minutes before departure. The journey takes 2 hours to get to Budukaya, which is the last island, as the boat makes all the stops. I recommend this visit because it's a change from the hustle and bustle of Istanbul and it's very pretty.

We had booked 2 hours yatch tour with snacks and wine. Unforgettable experience with senic views of European and Asian side. Luckily weather was perfect for amazing views and our guide was really entertaining and knowledgeable. We got a learn a little bit of history, nice places and restaurant recommendations for best Turkish food and sweets in Istanbul. We took some nice photos and thoroughly enjoyed our Sunset yatch.
