About this trip
This seven-day tour starts and ends in Istanbul and works through Turkey's best-known historic sites at an easy pace, with a guide handling the details throughout.
It's built as a classic introduction to the country rather than an off-the-beaten-track route, with hotel stays, meals, transport and a guide all included.
The small-group, fully guided format suits families and anyone who'd rather not plan logistics themselves, including departures over Christmas and New Year.
