Turkey is a transcontinental country that spans Europe and Asia. For Indian travellers it offers many experiences in one trip: Byzantine and Ottoman monuments in Istanbul, the cave landscapes of Cappadocia, Greco-Roman ruins at Ephesus and Pamukkale, and beaches on the Mediterranean and Aegean coasts. English is widely understood in major tourist areas, but Turkish is the most useful language everywhere else.
Most trips start in Istanbul, which is the main international gateway through Istanbul Airport (IST). Cappadocia is usually reached by a domestic flight, and the coast is a further short flight or transfer. Our ready-made packages show how the country can be divided: the Istanbul Cappadocia Honeymoon 6N for couples, the Turkey Highlights 7N for a first visit that adds Ephesus and Pamukkale, and the Turkey Family 7N with a beach stop in Antalya.
Six to thirteen nights is the ideal range for most travellers. Seven nights covers Istanbul, Cappadocia and one more region, and a longer trip allows a slower pace. Travellers who want a second Mediterranean contrast can also look at Greece tour packages.
