Caves, Dervishes and Gulets
Turkey – part Asian and part European, is the land of crusaders and whirling dervishes, with foods flavoured with exotic spices, underground cities, and a beautiful Aegean coastline.
This family adventure starts in the fascinating city of Istanbul where we explore Topkapi Palace and take a boat ride on the Bosphorus. Next stop Cappadocia, with its stunning scenery and weird rock formations, and underground cities and houses built inside caves. We learn the history of the Whirling Dervishes in Konya, and marvel at the Roman amphitheatre at Aspendos. Then on to the coast, where we spend three nights on a traditional gulet, cruising the clear waters of the Mediterranean, with chances to explore lost cities and castles, and swim in beautiful bays. The tour ends with more time to relax at the Blue Lagoon Beach.
