Begin your journey in the vibrant southern city of Adana, where Ottoman grandeur meets modern bustle. Marvel at the Sabancı Merkez Mosque, Turkey’s second‑largest mosque, whose six minarets echo the silhouette of Istanbul’s Blue Mosque. Stroll across the 6th‑century Taş Köprü, a Byzantine stone bridge still in use, and pause at the iconic Great Clock Tower, a symbol of the city restored after wartime damage. Wander through the historic Kazancılar Bazaar, famed for its copper kettles, then step inside the charming Church of Babies and explore the Ethnography and Atatürk Museums, each offering a window into the region’s layered past.
Delve into the flavors of southern Turkey with a hands‑on cooking lesson that takes you from bustling market stalls to a fully equipped kitchen, where you’ll prepare and savor a traditional Adana lunch. Afterward, visit a local vineyard to discover the art of fruit‑wine making, and meet skilled leather artisans for a glimpse of centuries‑old craftsmanship. In the evening, unwind in a historic Turkish hamam, experiencing the steam, massage and ritual that have soothed travelers for generations.
The adventure continues beyond the city limits with a day‑trip to the ancient site of Misis, a settlement with a 3,000‑year legacy, where intricate mosaics depict stories from the past, including the tale of Prophet Noah. The journey culminates at Yılanlı Kale, the legendary Snake Castle, whose Byzantine, Crusader and Armenian layers tell a saga of sieges and resilience. This comprehensive tour blends architectural marvels, culinary delights and archaeological wonders, leaving you with a deep appreciation of Adana’s unique cultural tapestry.

My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
