Our Turkey trip planning started by coordination with Lionell who really worked on our budget and expectations. Kudos to him for giving us the best itinerary and package. Next was processing our Visa by Afrose who made sure all documents are in place and no gaps.Visa was processed within a week which was amazing. Hats off to him.Shreya took over and was constantly in touch with us during the entire trip in making sure our pickup, drop, hotel check in were smooth. Her messages during the trip gave us confidence that we are still in our home land :).Great work by Mullai Nathan in responding our queries.The 24/7 chat support within Pickyourtrail app was at next level with top notch responses. Ground team at Turkey received us on timely manner and there was no surprises. My sincere Gratitude and thanks to the entire team at Pickyourtrail who has made this trip very memorable to me and my friend.Sugu R, Trip to Turkey

Turkey winter-escape: A 12-Night 13-Day Itinerary

Embark on a mesmerizing journey through Turkey with our 12 Nights Winter Escape Itinerary, an experience that beautifully melds leisure with adventure. From the breathtaking rock formations in Cappadocia to the stunning coastlines of Antalya, every moment is steeped in rich history and vibrant culture. As you explore, you'll create memories that linger in your heart long after the trip ends.

Highlights of the Destination

  • Göreme Open-Air Museum: This UNESCO World Heritage Site showcases remarkable Byzantine art within ancient rock-cut churches, immersing you in the spiritual heritage of the region.
  • Hot Air Balloon Ride Over Cappadocia: Experience the breathtaking views of fairy chimneys and vast valleys from high above, a truly unforgettable way to see this magical landscape.
  • The Historical Wonders of Istanbul: Stand in awe of the magnificent Hagia Sophia and the vibrant Grand Bazaar, where a rich tapestry of sights, sounds, and fragrances await your senses.
  • Pamukkale’s Thermal Springs: This natural wonder, known as the “Cotton Castle,” invites you to relax in its warm, mineral-rich waters amidst stunning travertine terraces.

Travel Tips for Turkey

  • Dress Comfortably: Turkey’s winter weather can be chilly, especially in Cappadocia and Istanbul, so layer up and wear comfortable shoes for exploring.
  • Embrace Local Cuisine: Don’t miss tasting authentic Turkish delights and kebabs; visit local eateries to truly experience the flavor of each region.
  • Plan Your Transport: While major cities have reliable public transportation, renting a car, especially in Cappadocia, gives you the flexibility to explore off-the-beaten-path sites.
  • Cultural Etiquette: Learn a few basic Turkish phrases and understand local customs to enhance your interactions with the welcoming Turkish people.

Conclusion

The Turkey 12 Nights Winter Escape Itinerary is more than just a trip; it's an exploration of a land that has been a crossroads of cultures and civilizations for centuries. As you wander through ancient streets, feel the warmth of Turkish hospitality, and revel in the diverse landscapes, you'll find that every moment spent here is a masterpiece waiting to be cherished. Pack your bags and let the adventure await in this enchanting country!

Had a wonderful time in Turkey, thanks to PickYourTrail. They were very helpful in planning the trip, Visa processing, making the bookings of flights, hotels, tours, cabs etc. And the in app chat support was quick and helpful. Even considering the time difference, it was very prompt. I would book my next trip with them without a second thought.

Pick your trail was the best choice we could have made. They were really helpful, took care of all our choices and totally customised the itinerary as per our needs. Initially we planned to go to Turkey and Greece but my Turkey visa didn't go through. Even in this situation, they were really helpful and rescheduled our itinerary. Highly recommend to chose Pick your trail for all your travel.

Been associated with PYT for various corporate bookings for the last 2 years and about 3 months back I happened to book my trip to Turkey with them.I had no second thoughts when my husband asked if I know any trustworthy travelagency - my reply was PYT. The process was seamless there was multiple followup for visa process proper guidance . The trip was memorable and lovely. Starting from airport pickup the hotel bookings and there was update every day from the support team. Loved the activities at Cappadocia and Antalya. Private tour at Istanbul was the bestest part of the trip. Thanks to the entire team and special thanks to Praveen ( for putting together the itinerary- he considered every modification requested) and Manoj from support team for making sure everything was alright and checking if we are all set for trip even an hour before our flight.

Our recent trip to Turkey with Pick Your Trail was nothing short of amazing, especially since it was our infant's first international trip. Having traveled with Pick Your Trail for two other international trips in the past, they have always been our go-to choice for organizing travel. With each trip, they have consistently exceeded our expectations, and this time was no different. First and foremost, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Shafira from the sales team. From the very beginning, she was incredibly attentive and took the time to understand our needs, which were a bit more complex since we were traveling with a 10-month-old. Her patience, expertise, and personalized approach made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. Shafiras guidance through every detail, from flight options to accommodations and sightseeing, gave us the confidence that our trip would be in great hands. We also owe a special mention to Shreya from the Pick Your Trail support team. During our trip, we faced an unexpected situation where we missed our return flight. Shreyas support was invaluable during this stressful time. She worked tirelessly to coordinate with us, ensuring our safe return back to India. Not only did she help us arrange a stay and transportation during this difficult time, but she also made sure everything was handled efficiently, allowing us to stay calm and focused. Her dedication to ensuring we were well taken care of truly stood out. Thanks to the wonderful team at Pick Your Trail, our Turkey trip became a memorable experience that we will cherish forever. The seamless support, attention to detail, and excellent customer service reaffirmed why we continue to trust them for our travel needs. We look forward to many more trips with Pick Your Trail in the future! A huge thank you to everyone involved your efforts made this trip a stress-free and unforgettable experience for our family!

We had a good time at Turkey, coutsey PYT. Our stay at Antalya, Goreme and Istanbul was comfortable. Travel was super comfortable as the quality of vehicles provided was very good, no inconvenience despite of shared transfer. Itinerary was planned nicely by Mridula especially for Antalya and Capadocia. We faced little hassle and hiccups at Istanbul airport due to miscommunication amongst pickup staff and Blue Mosque was planned for Friday, which remains closed on Friday due to weekly prayers. So we regret missing the most prominent monument in Istanbul. Rest we loved our stay in Turkey. 24*7 helpline by PYT is a big boon in foreign land.
