Very inspiring indeed.

Selim and his driver were extremely helpful and patient with us. Selim was well versed with the relevant history and explained everything in detail, answering questions before they are asked. The Hotel choice was great, the vehicles was comfortable and the pace not too hurried. In all the service was above expectations and we enjoyed every moment of our Tour. JOSEPH & LENNAH KIVAI

Mehmet was an incredibly...

Mehmet was an incredibly good tour guide! He had extensive knowledge of the ancient cities that the “Seven Letters to the Churches of Revelations”, but he also knew the Biblical history. At each site, he read the letter that the Apostle John wrote to that people of that church. I highly, highly recommend this tour. The four-day tour included a quick trip to Colossae. Although they are just starting to excavate that area, it was still profoundly impactful to see the site. The four-day tour was a perfect amount of time to visit the seven sites, plus Colossae. Mehmet was also very punctual and personable. I feel very blessed to have had him as my guide, and I highly recommend this tour.

Great experience in Turkey with Ertunga, Felicity Travel!

Mr. Ertunga guided us for 3 days (28-30 Aug 2026). Our original 3-day customized itinerary did not include some places like Thyatira, Philadelphia, and Sardis, but he forgot that ours was a special 3-day package, and he happily took us to visit all the seven churches only to realize later that he had made a mistake. He did not charge us extra, and with a broad smile! What I really like was his sincerity and not-for-money attitude, he just wants us to have fun and enjoy the trips. He took us to some local eateries for lunch (included in the package) and the food were just great! The transport vehicle (Mercedes) was exceptionally clean, the driver was excellent, with drinks provided. Ertunga is very knowledgeable in the historical background of all the places he took us, and these extra Biblical information helped me a lot in my understanding of the seven churches in the book of Revelation. I also asked him to arrange for several pick-up and drop-off during our extended stay in Izmir, Kusadasi and Istanbul (such as from hotel to airport, ferry point to hotel, airport to hotel etc.) which he happily obliged and the charges were very reasonable and services were good. I highly recommend Ertunga if you want a good, exciting and relax holiday in Turkey. It's more than value for money!

Reliable & Experienced Tour Guide :)

We are a small group of five from Singapore visiting the seven churches, together with the ancient site of Colossae and also Pamukkale. We found out about Ertunga from ChatGPT, who has very good reviews. Ertunga is a reliable, accommodating and experienced guide. He is knowledgeable with the history and the archaeological findings of the ancient sites we visited. He has helped us understand and appreciate better the contexts of the words spoken in the Bible, especially in the book of Revelation. We have enjoyed the 3-days tour very much, though on hindsight, a 4-days tour would be better so that we can have more time exploring the vast remains of the ancient site of Ephesus. I would recommend anyone who wants to visit Turkiye to engage the professional services of Felicity Travel.

Rare and unique memorable experience

We had an absolutely amazing, memorable and emotional 4 days, the tour guide Ezger had a rare combined wealth of archaeological knowledge and knowledge of the Christian civilisations, always relating every location back to the bible readings, We saw a beautiful side of ancient Turkey only possible through this guide and group. Also the hotels were 5 star!!

7 churches of Revelation

We had the most amazing experience during this tour of the 7 churches of Revelation. Ozgur was incredible as a guide and we would thoroughly recommend him to anyone. His knowledge of the Bible and the way he could relate it to the various sites we visited was eye opening. He truly made everything come alive for us. Being able to walk these places that past Christians and Disciples walked gave us a real thrill and excitement. We are truly grateful for this experience and the memories will stay with us long after we leave here. We highly recommend going with Felicity travel and Ozgur with his professionalism and expertise made this an unforgettable experience. Our driver (I think his name was Veggie) made us totally comfortable and relaxed. He drove with competence and safety. Thank you once again for the experience of a lifetime
