East greets West on our comprehensive Escorted Tour, which embraces the many facets of this diverse nation. Experience the exotic allure of Istanbul at the monumental Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace. Then enter the miraculous underground dwellings in Cappadocia. And explore some of the oldest—and best preserved—ruins of ancient empires along the deeply carved coast. Throughout your travels, your Turkish Program Director provides insights as only a native can, drawing back the curtain to reveal the drama of everyday life in both city and village.
