TESTIMONIALS
"We had a great time and everything worked out well. Istanbul was very interesting and very crowded Nesli was great and I will recommend her to some Swedes who are going I think in November. You did a great job thanks much."

"I am not sure if Patrice got to you already, but I wanted to let you know how fabulous our time in Turkey was – Nesli was a gift from above as a guide- lovely, knowledgeable, flexible and just all around great. The boat and crew were a dream and in terms of timing we could not have had better weather the entire trip. As you already know we thought the Park Hyatt was the perfect location, but I will say it again anyway: you were right. Thank you and your team for all your hard work."

And the weather!!! Hope to see you again soon."

"Hello To Our Turkish Friend Nesli!
The Hirsch segment of our tour returned to Los Angeles last evening after the long travel day. All was very worth the rigors of flying to be able to visit Turkey and beyond. What a wonderful trip we had. No discomforts or glitches anywhere. Only fabulous and seamless touring!

We especially enjoyed our time with each of you in Istanbul & Ephesus being immersed in the rich sights, flavorful culture and particularly the depth of history. It was certainly just a taste of everything but enough to excite and inspire us. Bo who is really not a curious traveler has raved about Istanbul to everyone!!! Hayley says “for sure” she will return but next time without the parents! Ha! She’ll need to start saving her $$$$. We would definitely connect her with you all to be our guardians anyway! Patty and I will be back for some countryside touring! AND we will recommend you to our friends.

The Aegean Blue Cruise was so relaxing and luxurious…such an unusual excursion for all of us. We did everything available to us but mostly relaxed and ate way too much food. I think the crew probably thought us a bit crazy as we usually began sitting in our places at the table even before the mealtime was announced! The crew was delightful with easy going demeanor; very easy to be with! Ahhhh the Aegean coastline!!!!
​
We enjoyed your neighbor Athens too. but must say that 2 days there would’ve been enough. We would have liked to have had the extra days in Istanbul. Hotel Grande Bretagne was, however, an architectural delight…service was nice too. The Pappas’ will return to LA on Saturday…stopped in NYC. We will all surely spend time together reminiscing about our travels with you and seeing your beautiful city forever. We enjoyed every minute of our time. Thank you so much for making it possible."
With warm regards, Candy, Bo and Hayley Hirsch
"Thanks for a wonderful trip in Istanbul. We are giving your name to our neighbor who is going on the same cruise in September. I hope they call you! You were great. Keep in touch."

"You’re the best and I love having confidence and trust that you will take great care of my clients! I had lunch with Leslie McConnico and she couldn’t say enough nice things about you. They had such a wonderfully memorable trip to Turkey and I can’t thank you enough for your attention to detail and making sure they learned and had a good time."

"Just a quick note to say thank you for our wonderful day with you in Istanbul. We have returned home to Minnesota after a great cruise, a few days enjoying Athens, and then 5 days in London. We are exhausted, but have great memories. When people ask what part of the trip we liked the most, Paul and I both respond, Istanbul. You were a big reason we liked the city so much. Thank you. I have passed your greetings on to John as well. We will certainly recommend you highly if we have friends that decide to head to Istanbul. And let us know if you ever get to Minnesota!"
