I went in 98 and looooved it. It’s the best of East meets West in my opinion: the people, history, food, culture, landscapes were amazing. My husband has never been so I’d love to take him, plus we are kiwis so Turkey has a special place in our hearts due to the terrible tragedy at Gallipoli. ---

Apart from the obvious incredible experiences to be had - It forms a huge part of biblical history - giving it a special reason for making travel matter. To feel, be close to, and make your own decisions about the bible with real context. ---

Turkey has been my dream place since very long time!!! It’s really a complete and perfect blend of modern and islamic history, the beautiful sights of Istanbul’s bosphorus view, pamukkale’s hot springs, fethiye’s crystal clear waters, ephesus’s historical ruins, and most breathtaking Cappadocia’s hot air balloon ride with a perfect sunrise views.. how is it even possible to not have it first in the travel bucket.. and not only the touristy areas but other villages and mountainous areas are far more than real, just like HEAVEN ON EARTH!!! Would love to go there as a couple soon after my wedding this year ---

Just a magical country. Would love to do Cappadocia in the underground city and sleep in the cave pensions. Istanbul is a great city to visit. So much history to see. ---

I have stopped over in Istanbul on a flight to Italy and had 2 days to discover such an interesting culture and amazing history. I would love to go back and explore beyond just Istanbul city and really experience and interact with the locals. The food also is amazing! and they are really keeping up the traditions ---

I went to Turkey back in 2003 & to this day it remains right at the top of my best trips. It’s time to go back & see some of the wonders I missed, as well as to revisit some old favourites. The places, the people, the food, the culture, the history…what’s not to love? Plus, I lost all my old photos, I need to take some more! ---
