Great time with our guides they were so amazing and friendly. Also so knowledgeable about the city! Absolutely loved our time in Erzurum!
It was so fun to see all different parts of the city and get a real range of Turkish culture in Erzurum! I loved the hospitality of the people especially at an old historical home we visited. Highly highly recommend!
Favorite parts were seeing the old architecture and the magic road! It was amazing what can be seen in such a short time!
We had a blast touring around Erzurum and participating in a scavenger hunt to help us get to know the city. We saw beautiful old homes, the old historical castle, and got to interact with locals despite knowing zero turkish. The whole tour felt very safe and personable and really bonded us closer together as a group. Love love love and would recommend to all!!
It was a great day to view the city and learn about its history. The tour guide was very useful for translation and answering questions
Amazing tour, great hosts! Everything was taken care of for us, got to see the amazing city of Erzurum
