The story

A trip with To Turchese Viaggi. Cost 1500 euros all inclusive for a week of touring and a week by the sea in Izmir. The week by the sea disappointed me a little, I expected better, but the tour week alone is worth the entire price of the holiday!!! One tip: if you see something you like in Istanbul, buy it straight away, because during the tour there is far less choice and the prices are higher than in the city!! In any case, always haggle and don't be in a hurry..be kind guests, they will offer you tea inside their little shops and even if you buy nothing, it will have been a lovely chat between different worlds and cultures...
