Turkey Holidays

Book your holiday to Turkey with Wendy Wu Tours

Celebrating 25 Years of tour excellence

With its rich, complex history, vibrant culture and incredible cuisine, Turkey is so much more than the bridge between East and West. Combining influences from the Middle East, the Mediterranean, the Balkans and Central Asia, here you’ll find a captivating mix of the exotic, the ancient and the familiar.

Complex and epic history

The peninsula that modern-day Turkey occupies is home to some of the oldest known settlements in the world. This long history is evident in the country’s remarkable collection of fascinating ruins, including the ancient port city of Ephesus, one of the best-preserved ancient cities in the world. The Greeks, Romans, Byzantines and Ottomans have all occupied this historically lucrative Silk Road stopover, and much of today's Turkish way of life is a culmination of these legendary influences

Fantastical landscapes

The diversity of Turkey’s landscapes is quite extraordinary. From the olive groves that fringe its Mediterranean coast to Cappadocia’s otherworldly ‘fairy chimney’ rock formations, the country’s terrain takes on a different persona at every turn. Alpine landscapes offer breath-taking beauty and hold legendary secrets; Mount Ararat in eastern Turkey is said to be the landing place of Noah’s Ark after the flood, and the country’s 1,600 kilometres of coastline host sparkling seas, golden beaches and striking forest-clad cliffsides.

Culinary delights

Arguably the biggest draw in a country with a lot to entice visitors, Turkish food is not only delicious but also a direct route to the heart of Turkish culture. Turkish fare has been influenced by the many civilisations that have occupied its lands, but is mainly a continuance of Ottoman cuisine.

The food here also has much in common with its Mediterranean neighbours - a region renowned for its world-class ingredients and flavours. Sample the classic meze and kebap dishes, accompanied by oil-grilled Agean vegetables and washed down with a tulip-shaped glass of çay. And of course, you’ll need to save some space for dessert, no Turkish meal is complete without a bite of sweet baklava.

Review for Treasures of Turkey
Excellent. The itinerary was busy but that meant you saw a great deal and experienced so much of what Turkey has to offer. Our guide was very knowledgeable, informative, approachable and kind. Our group was made up of ‘seasoned travellers’ so everyone was aware of being on time which was important given the number of hotel changes on the tour. Would definitely recommend and use Wendy Wu as a tour operator again if this trip is representative of their experience and organisational skills which were first class.

Review for Treasures of Turkey
The itinerary was packed and I travelled around a huge area of Turkey taking in archaeological sites and amazing scenery. No two days were the same.

Review for Treasures of Turkey
A very comprehensive tour with a lot of different experiences. Istanbul was busy with many tourists visiting the main sites. The tour of Gallipoli was very well laid out and the information boards and the words of our guide brought it all to life.
The historical sites of Ephesus and Hieropolis were very good and well preserved. The highlight was Capadocia and the hot air balloon ride from which you got a fantastic view of the landscape. Pamukkale was also a great place to visit although very busy.
Be prepared for long coach journeys and sometimes having lunch and dinner quite close together without checking into your hotel until later.
A very good but exhausting holiday.

Review for Treasures of Turkey
A very well organised tour as expected from Wendy Wu. We enjoyed a wide variety of experiences and learned a great deal. Our guide, Erdal was always helpful and informative and Mustafa, our driver, was a real star.

Review for Treasures of Turkey
Was as described in the brochure and the Tour guide was excellent. A good knowledge and practical when dealing with any issues. Not a relaxing holiday but very interesting and visited a large number of different venues including Troy, Ephesus and Cappadocia as well as other sites of interest.

Review for Treasures of Turkey
Excellent tour with a wide variety of experiences including visiting local homes and private boat cruises. Quite a lot of walking though including uneven steos and unmade paths.

Review for Treasures of Turkey
Another successful WendyWu holiday, excellent guide (Ilhan) with great knowledge of the places visited on the itinerary. Lovely hotels & good variety of food from many different sorts of restaurants.
Coach driver Mustafa's patience driving group safely around the sights of Turkey was second none.
