We had a very enjoyable time planning our trip to Turkey with this group. Our family of five with a small child (3 yrs) in Istanbul and just my wife and I in Cappadocia and Izmir. All the details and tours were very well organzied and hotels and meals were also excellent. There quote for prices was also very competitive, so we thought we got a very good value for our money.

Faruk was a wonderful guide, very flexible, friendly and knowledgeable. We were so impressed that Travel Atelier was able to help us book a hot air balloon ride with such short notice too. Usually these rides book up months in advance and they snagged us two spots with just a few days notice. What a magical experience and they knew the best company to book with - Royal Balloon.

Terrific Turkey Trip!
Having just returned from a 10 day private family trip organized by Travel Atelier we wanted to express our delight with our experience visiting this diverse country! We chose Travel Atelier as they are a local company based in Cappadocia and the itinerary suggested captured our interest as it allowed us to visit a great mix of locations to give us an appreciation of modern and historical Turkey. We started out in Istanbul experiencing this fascinating city straddling the continents of Europe and Asia followed by time in the geological wonderland that is Cappadocia and finishing in the Izmir regions where we visited historical sites such as Ephesus and Pergamon and Didyma. Throughout the planning process, Orsan, from Travel Atelier was helpful and accommodating seeking to understand our goals and requirements (such as dietary restrictions for one of our family members) for the trip and modifying the itinerary accordingly. Information was communicated thoroughly and promptly. On arrival in Turkey, the trip unfolded seamlessly with all the guides, drivers and the central office working as a team to provide the highest quality experience possible.
Day 1 on arrival included a trip to a Hamman after a quick check in at the hotel. We can't think of a better way to have started our trip after a long flight than the luxurious soaking, scrubbing and massaging that was all part of the Hamman experience! The next day we met our guide who took us on a walking tour of Istanbul and spent the next 3 days with us in the city. Additional local guides in the Cappadocia and Izmir region met up with us at each of the stages of our trip. We can't say enough about our local guides who were all highly knowledgeable as well as personable and friendly. They all had a "can do" attitude and where completely open and helpful to adapting the itinerary "on the fly" to meet our needs. For example, a day trip to Troy was substituted for more time in Istanbul to allow us to experience more of the city and also seek out some emergency camera repairs for one of our group. The timing and sequencing of our excursions was adapted to address our interest in photography and take advantage of the best photographic conditions when they occurred. As far as meals and accommodations went we were delighted with the offerings arranged by Travel Atelier. We enjoyed eating in smaller, local restaurants to experience the unique cuisine of the country along with the local people in the regions we were visiting. For meals on our own, our guides had helpful suggestions for excellent restaurants. A cooking class in the home of a Turkish family was a unique experience to both experience the hospitality and warmth of the wonderful family hosting us as well as learn first hand about making typical Turkish dishes. In setting up the trip, we specified 4 star accomodations (vs. 5 star) and honestly, we felt so pampered we can't imagine what the 5 star option would be like! Especially fantastic were the accomodations in Istanbul (Ciragan Kempinsky Palace right on the Bosphorus) and the Argos in Cappadocia.
During our trip, our guides and Orsan were readily available to clarify questions and provide up to date information about our itinerary and facilitate details like check-in for our internal flights. Even after our trip, Travel Atelier was very accommodating and allowed us to delay our airport transfer to a few days as we planned an additional four days on our own after we returned to Istanbul at the end of the organized trip.
Overall, Turkey as a destination and Travel Atelier as a tour company exceeded our expectations. We absolutely felt we received terrific value for this tour and we had the opportunity to see an experience Turkey in a rich, interactive and personally rewarding fashion!response / report this review -

Absolutely Incredible Guides and Tours! I was lucky enough to have Ismail as my guide while in Cappadocia. He took care of me every step of the way, and made sure I had a wonderful time exploring this amazing part of Turkey. The guides speak wonderful English and take very good care of their guests. They'll pick you up from the airport and make sure you arrive safely at your hotel. They also design the tour around your interests without missing any of the major sites. I can't recommend Travel Atelier enough!

We visited Turkey in October 2017 and along with me and my husband, our parents had also joined us. Travel Atelier did a great job in organizing our trip. Ismail was our contact person and he made all our arrangements and everything was taken care of from the moment we landed in Istanbul. Ismail had arranged for a big luxurious van, very knowledgeable tour guides, beautiful hotel rooms and local food tour for us for the full week. Everything was very well organized, relaxed, sometimes full of lovely surprises and Ismail did not give us any chance to complain :). It was a great value for money and I highly recommend Travel Atelier's services to everyone.

I cannot say enough good things about this company. Ismail with Travel Atelier was a godsend to making our Turkey trip the best vacation ever. My husband and I spent 5 days touring the Cappodocia and Ephesus regions in July. Ismail took care of every detail for us. He arranged all our domestic flights, selected wonderful hotels and friendly tour guides! He really allowed us to relax and enjoy every moment knowing he prepared the perfect schedule. From my first email to the company, Ismail was professional, attentive and so helpful. He went above and beyond (often answering emails outside of office hours) to answer all my many questions and plan out a well scheduled and thought out itinerary, customized based on our wishes and historical interests. We cannot wait to utilize Ismail for our next travel trip! We also loved stopping into the the office to meet him! In Cappadocia, we had a great time exploring all the open air museums with our tour guide, Onder. He had such a passion for the region and its religious and geographical history. He also selected really unique lunch spots most tourist would never find. It was like exploring the town with a friend! We had a blast in Cappadocia and the balloon ride Ismail arranged is not to be missed. For the Ephesus regions we were also blown away. There was so much to see and do. We could have not done half of it without Ismail's input! Ismail also last minute added an Aphrodisias historical stop, on our way to Pamukkale which was one of our favorite parts! Our tour guide, Dicle, was such a gem. She knew such an incredible amount of knowledge. We couldn't get enough. We had a great few days with her learning about the region, the history and the people and culture of Turkey. We left Turkey not only with so much knowledge and great memories, but also a whole new set of friends. We cant wait to go back!

I just found this travel agency on the Internet and was taking a risk using them. I chose them out of a few others because they seem to be the more attentive and quick to respond to my questions about what to do in Turkey for a week with a 2 & 4 yr old. They are also the most reasonably priced! And the result, our travel ends tomorrow, has been excellent! Ismail, who was my agent, did not appear to have any personal life at all throughout the week of our travel, he's been even more attentive and available in answering any questions I have via email, text, or voice calls early in the morning or late at night (I would hate to be his wife ) when I really did not expect him to answer that quickly. We made some changes thru out the trip and he was able to accommodate them as we go. His service has been wonderful beyond our expectations! I am happy to say I have someone in Turkey I can call on to whenever I need help with travel and events! Thank you so much Ismail! And please thank your wife for me as well! My family and I (husband, 2 kids, and my mother) thank you as well! We are very grateful for all you've done! We hope to come back to Turkey especially Cappadocia again someday soon!
