About this trip
Seven days moving through Turkey by public transport, taking in the country's mix of historic mosques, Roman ruins, and the fairy chimneys and cave churches of Cappadocia.
This is a budget-focused trip — public buses, simple guesthouses, and a group setup that leaves room to meet other travellers and locals along the way.
It's a broad, sightseeing-heavy route rather than a slow one, built around the landmarks that make this part of Turkey distinctive, including a striking pink lake.
