Capture the spirit of the real Anatolia with us. Your senses will be stimulated by the cultures of this vast land, from the aroma of the flat village bread baking in the stone oven to the meditational rhythms of soft Sufi music from the mysterious Mevlana halls. Be surrounded by the richness of the Ottoman Empire and Byzantine styled masterpieces in the once capital city Istanbul, taking in the panoramic vistas of the Bosphorous where Europe from the West meets Asian shores, and the two are in harmony. Why not haggle in the colourful oriental covered bazaars, once filled by Asian pedellers with their precious spices to sell, perhaps mellowing over a glass of sweet cay and finding that special 'bargain'? We will take you to see some Wonders of the Ancient World and transport you back to 700 years B.C.
Feel privileged to meander along the paved walkways where Roman heroes once marched and photograph the wonderful, ancient Temple of Artemis . We will admire the calcite travertines of one of the wonder s of the Natural World - Pamukkale - translating as 'cotton castles'. Later, feel the vastness of the lavascape in the Cappadocia valley, the most ancient inhabited region s , where 'fairy chimmney' like structures were formed by the volcanic lava streams so many years ago and Christian churches exist in the caves. Take the opportunity to indulge in a leisurely gulet cruise and sail, swim and snorkel in some of the most beautiful clear waters of the Mediterranean Coast , discovering and admiring its many tranquil bays and islands.
