La excursión tiene aspectos muy positivos y otros muy negativos. Por un lado, un trabajo impecable por parte tanto del guía como del conductor. Los hoteles además eran excelentes. Sin embargo, el desarrollo de las actividades y el tiempo de las visitas se veía claramente destinado a fines comerciales en la mayoría de las ocasiones, como contratar el paseo en globo con civitatis o comprar en tiendas preprogramadas. Translate this opinion into English.

The excursion has very positive aspects and others very negative. On the one hand, impeccable work by both the guide and the driver. The hotels were also excellent. However, the development of the activities and the time of the visits were clearly destined for commercial purposes in most cases, such as hiring the balloon ride with civitatis or shopping in pre-programmed stores.

Me encantó este circuito. Calidad/precio inmejorable. Además conocimos bastante gente joven que también había contratado el circuito e hicimos un buen grupo. Es verdad que hay mucho autobús, pero es que no hay otra manera de conocer tantos lugares. Repetiría sin duda. Dar las gracias a Resid, nuestro súper guía. Translate this opinion into English.

I loved this tour. Unbeatable value for money. We also met a lot of young people who had also booked the tour, and we made a great group. It's true that there are a lot of buses, but there's no other way to see so many places. I would definitely do it again. Thanks to Resid, our super guide. Opinion translated. Show original.

Este tour en español es increíble. Tiene mucho tiempo de autobús, pero es gracias a eso que se ven las cosas más emblemáticas de Turquía. Los hoteles en donde se alojan son increíbles, normalmente con buffet libre para desayuno y cena. Tuvimos mucha suerte con el guía Raçid. Cuenta la historia de cada sitio de una manera amena y divertida. También el conductor Aka (creo que no se escribe así) es un magnífico profesional. La agencia con que opera Civitatis es Euromarmara, grandes profesionales Translate this opinion into English.

This Spanish-language tour is incredible. It takes a long time on the bus, but it's thanks to this that you get to see Turkey's most iconic sights. The hotels where you stay are incredible, usually with an open buffet for breakfast and dinner. We were very lucky with our guide, Raçid. He tells the story of each site in a fun and entertaining way. Our driver, Aka (I don't think that's the spelling) is also a magnificent professional. The agency that Civitatis operates with is Euromarmara, and they are truly great professionals. Opinion translated. Show original.

Es una actividad muy larga pero considerando todo lo que ves en tan pocos días diría que está muy bien programada para abarcar tanto. Quitaría las visitas en las tiendas de joyas, cuero y alfombras para poder disfrutar mas tiempo en lugares que sí estamos interesados en ver. Translate this opinion into English.

It is a very long activity but considering everything you see in so few days I would say that it is very well programmed to cover so much. I would eliminate visits to jewelry, leather and carpet stores so we can enjoy more time in places that we are interested in seeing. Opinion translated. Show original.

Visitas bastantes cosas pero hoteles bastante lejos si vais a coger el tour para ver los globos el hotel estaba a 40 minutos y está pesando para que cojais con ellos el paseo en globo algo caro .No hay muchas opciones para comer ni mucho tiempo, pero si mucho tiempo para las excursiones de joyas, alfombras y cuero para que te dejes el dinero.En cuanto a la guía Taliha y el conductor todo genial muy profesionales. Translate this opinion into English.

You visit quite a few things but hotels quite far away. If you are going to take the tour to see the balloons, the hotel was 40 minutes away and they are planning for you to take the somewhat expensive balloon ride with them. There are not many options to eat or much time, but yes plenty of time for the jewelry, rugs and leather excursions so you can leave the money. As for the guide Taliha and the driver, everything was great, very professional. Opinion translated. Show original.

Los hoteles y el tour muy completos, al igual que la guía, muy bonito todo, hoteles de muy buena calidad con explicaciones en español,buffet para desayunar y cenar... una manera de ver bastantes sitios principales de Turquía. Única pega es que se hacen paradas muy largas cada poco tiempo, entiendo que el bus tiene que parar cada 2 horas pero paradas tan largas de 1 hora en sitios irrelevantes, con objetivo unicamente de vender en sitios sin encanto pierde mucho tiempo, pero en general perfecto. Translate this opinion into English.

The hotels and the tour are very complete, as is the guide, everything is very nice, very good quality hotels with explanations in Spanish, buffet for breakfast and dinner... a way to see many of Turkey's main sites. The only downside is that very long stops are made every so often, I understand that the bus has to stop every 2 hours but stops as long as 1 hour in irrelevant places, with the sole purpose of selling in places without charm, it wastes a lot of time, but in general perfect.

Se pierde tiempo en actividades que a mí personalmente no me han interesado como por ejemplo, tienda de cuero con desfile, alfombras y joyería. Aquí te dejan todo el tiempo del mundo, pero en otras actividades culturales o para admirar el paisaje de la Capadoccia no te dejan apenas tiempo. Los dos primeros días en Ankara para mí fueron tiempo perdido. Cómo positivo, buenos hoteles, ves muchas cosas en poco tiempo y autobús confortable.

Time is wasted on activities that have not personally interested me, such as a leather store with a parade, carpets and jewelry. Here they leave you all the time in the world, but for other cultural activities or to admire the landscape of Capadoccia they hardly leave you time. The first two days in Ankara were wasted time for me. On the positive side, good hotels, you see a lot of things in a short time and a comfortable bus.

El proveedor local se esfuerza en poder ofrecer una organización del tour que resulte enriquecedora y completa. Por ello, intentan cumplir con todos los estándares de calidad que incluye la excursión. Sentimos si alguna parte del recorrido no ha sido como esperabas. Tendremos todo esto en cuenta para seguir mejorando el servicio. Translate this opinion into English.

The local provider strives to offer a tour organization that is enriching and complete. Therefore, they try to comply with all the quality standards included in the excursion. We are sorry if any part of the tour has not been as you expected. We will take all this into account to continue improving the service. Opinion translated. Show original.

El tour estuvo muy bien en general, aunque algunos hoteles necesitaban un poco de mejor mantenimiento en las habitaciones. No obstante, no nos gustó que el penúltimo día el guia repartiera sobres entres los participantes indicando que introdujésemos una cantidad mínima (bastante elevada) en concepto de propinas. Entiendo que la propina es una costumbre en muchos países, pero la acción de dejarla, a mi entender, debe ser iniciativa del cliente nunca ser exigida por el trabajador.

The tour was very good overall, although some hotels needed a little better maintenance in the rooms. However, we did not like that on the penultimate day the guide distributed envelopes among the participants indicating that we should enter a minimum amount (quite high) as tips. I understand that tipping is a custom in many countries, but the action of leaving it, in my opinion, should be the client's initiative and never be demanded by the worker.

Las costumbres relativas a las propinas varían en función de cada país. Pedimos disculpas si algún miembro de nuestro equipo se mostró demasiado insistente en este aspecto. Aun así, confirmamos que no hay obligación de aportar ningún extra puesto que el precio de la actividad incluye todos los servicios. Translate this opinion into English.

Tipping customs vary from country to country. We apologize if any member of our team was too pushy in this regard. Even so, we confirm that there is no obligation to provide any extra since the price of the activity includes all services. Opinion translated. Show original.

El itinerario y actividades se cumplieron y el guía (Orkun) hizo un muy buen trabajo, es una persona preparada y comprometida con su labor, realmente excelente!! También el conductor estuvo muy bien. Para mejorar el tour: 1. Dedicaría alguna hora más para ciertos lugares como Efeso, Pamukale y Esmirna. 2. La visita relacionada con el cuero fue muy comercial y hasta me sentí incómoda por la persecución de los empleados. 3. En los comedores de mediodía estaría bien que siempre hubiera opciones.

The itinerary and activities were fulfilled and the guide (Orkun) did a very good job, he is a person prepared and committed to his work, really excellent!! Also the driver was very good. To improve the tour: 1. I would spend a few more hours for certain places like Ephesus, Pamukale and Izmir. 2. The leather-related visit was very commercial, and I even felt uncomfortable because of the persecution of the employees. 3. In lunchrooms, it would be nice if there were always options.

En general muy bien, se conocen un montón de sitios de Turquía que si fueras por libre no podrías ver igual y todo bien coordinado. A lo mejor faltan algunas horas sin actividades o visitas culturales para conocer un poquito más los pueblos i ciudades donde hemos dormido. En la Capadoccia estuvimos dos noches, solo vimos el pueblo de Goreme des de el aire, y eso solo el que hizo el viaje en globo. En alguna otra ciudad nos pasó igual. Eso a parte, todo genial y buen trato de la guía i xofer. Translate this opinion into English.

In general, it was very good. You got to know a lot of places in Turkey that you wouldn't be able to see on your own, and everything was well coordinated. Maybe there were a few hours left without activities or cultural visits to get to know a little more about the towns and cities where we slept. We stayed two nights in Cappadocia, we only saw the town of Goreme from the air, and that was only the one who made the balloon trip. The same thing happened to us in some other city. Apart from that, everything was great and the guide and Xofer were very good. Opinion translated. Show original.

El tour fue excelente, así como el programa y la organización de la guía (Taliha). Los hoteles muy buenos (el de Pamukkale con aguas termales gratis, y los de Esmirna/Çanakkale céntricos para ver la ciudad al llegar). Los buffet eran buenos y las comidas en ruta eran buenas (con precios entre 7-12€, incluyendo 2 días buffet libre a 10€). Como opcional en Capadocia se ofreció el globo al precio de Civitatis y jeep safari (muy entretenido) a 60€. Hubo 3 visitas a tiendas, pero cortas y curiosas Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was excellent, as was the program and the organization of the guide (Taliha). Very good hotels (the one in Pamukkale with free hot springs, and the ones in Izmir/Çanakkale centrally located to see the city when you arrive). The buffets were good and the meals en route were good (with prices between €7-12, including 2 days all-you-can-eat buffet at €10). As an option in Cappadocia, the balloon was offered at the price of Civitatis and the jeep safari (very entertaining) was offered at €60. There were 3 visits to stores, but short and curious Opinion translated. Show original.

Fue una experiencia muy bonita, nos llevaron a lugares preciosos y en general, el tour está bien organizado. Los hoteles en su mayoría, están bien, tanto el buffet como las habitaciones. Cómo aspectos negativos, te obligan a pasar unas horas visitando tiendas para que compres sus productos y te hacen perder un tiempo que podrías estar aprovechando viendo otras cosas. Además, no tuvimos mucho tiempo para visitar lugares en los que puedes estar 3 horas y nos dio pena. Pero en general, está bien. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a very nice experience, they took us to beautiful places and in general, the tour is well organized. Most of the hotels are good, both the buffet and the rooms. As negative aspects, they force you to spend a few hours visiting stores to buy their products and they make you waste time that you could be taking advantage of seeing other things. Also, we didn't have much time to visit places where you can spend 3 hours and we were sad. But overall, it's fine. Opinion translated. Show original.

Tour muy completo. La guia Taliha muy profesional, dando muy buenas recomendaciones y explicaciones, siempre con una SONRISA. Los hoteles muy bien Lo que quitaría son las visitas comerciales a fabrica de joyas, piel y alfombras. Como dato negativo que el autobús no tenía para recargar movil, ya que hay distancias largas y trayectos de muchas horas Translate this opinion into English.

Very complete tour. The guide Taliha is very professional, giving very good recommendations and explanations, always with a SMILE. The hotels are very good. What I would remove are the commercial visits to jewelry, leather and carpet factories. As a negative fact, the bus did not have a cell phone recharger, since there are long distances and journeys that take many hours. Opinion translated. Show original.

La ruta y organización esta bien planteada en cuanto a ruta ya que contiene los principales sitios de interés turístico. Los horarios son muy precisos en el planing. Sin embargo, no nos gusto la guía, que no facilito no facilitaba nada que se saliera de aquello que estaba dentro de su organizacion. Sus exigencias con los horarios fueron excesivas, al punto de ser molesto para el grupo ciertos comportamientos que tuvo.

The route and organization is well planned in terms of route since it contains the main sites of tourist interest. The schedules are very precise in the planning. However, we did not like the guide, which did not provide anything that went beyond what was within its organization. His demands with the schedules were excessive, to the point of certain behaviors he had being annoying for the group.
