This 6-day package takes you to Cappadocia, Ephesus, Pamukkale, Troy and Gallipoli. Domestic flights, airport transfers, guided tours with entrance fees, hotel accommodation, daily breakfast and lunch on tour days are included.
In Cappadocia guided days take you to the frescoed churches of Göreme, the pinnacles of Paşabağ and Devrent, the pottery town of Avanos, the Red, Love and Pigeon valleys and an underground city carved deep into the rock; balloon flights at sunrise are available as an option. At Ephesus you follow the marble Curetes Street down to the Library of Celsus and the Great Theatre, then visit the House of the Virgin Mary on Mount Koressos and the remains of the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world.
Inland, the snow-white terraces of Pamukkale cascade down the hillside next to the ancient spa city of Hierapolis, where a theatre, a necropolis and the Antique Pool with its fallen marble columns await. You also walk through Troy, famous from the legend of the wooden horse, and climb to the Acropolis of Pergamon, once one of the great libraries and royal cities of the Hellenistic world.
The Gallipoli battlefields, where Allied and Ottoman forces fought in 1915, are visited with a guide who brings the story to life at ANZAC Cove, Lone Pine and Chunuk Bair.
What to pack: bring comfortable walking shoes, a hat and sunscreen, swimwear and a small towel for the Pamukkale terraces, a warm layer for cool Cappadocia mornings, especially if you book the balloon flight and your passport or ID card for the domestic flights. Your guide speaks fluent English, and the tour schedule may change slightly with the season and flight times while all listed visits are kept.
Tours run in small groups of up to 15 people, or as private tours with your own guide and vehicle; standard or top-end hotels can be chosen, and international flights are not included so you can travel from anywhere.
Good to know: prices are per person in a double room; single and triple rates are available on request. Children aged 4–7 receive a 40% discount and children aged 0–3 a 70% discount when sharing a room with two adults.

Drive about three hours inland to Pamukkale, where mineral-rich water has built up dazzling white travertine terraces, and explore the ruins of Hierapolis above them.

Real, verified reviews from travellers who explored Turkey with us.
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!
