Does not respond at all. We took Balkans tour with 4-star hotels. Hotels we stayed in, most of these were not even worthy of 2-stars. None of the hotels (except one) had room temperature control (open... See more

Cannot recommend this tour enough! You get to see a wonderful cross-section of Turkey and not feel too rushed. There is no obligation to see all of the planned sites and we were given options if there... See more

The booking process was very easy and clear.

The booking process was very easy and everything on the website is explained in good details. The guide Mustafa was extremely helpful and was very good at keeping us informed about daily activities and had a PowerPoint presentation for us on the first night. Our tour was big we had 40 people on it mostly aussies, what a fun group. The days were full on with activities and travelling. The places we visited on the itinerary were very interesting with history. I learnt a lot! Breakfast and dinners included were all buffet so prepare to over eat your way around turkey. The lunches were really good and definitely take the guides recommendations. This tour really highlighted the best of what Turkey has to offer. Just be prepared to be on the bus as there’s lots of driving. The bus drivers and guide were really lovely. Best guide!

Turkey in 12 days

A very well run trip from booking to leaving. Our guide Mustafa was brilliant at giving information throughout the tour and predicting the needs of the group. There were optional activities and we saw a lot! Highly recommend 👌

Best of Turkey by Land

We did the 12 day Best of Turkey by Land tour and had a great time. The entire itinerary was well-organized and covered all the major highlights you'd want. Our guide Mustafa was superb; he genuinely cared about the group (which was a large one) having a good time and we appreciated how he went above and beyond to facilitate individual preferences. My favorites from the tour were visiting the Ephesus/Troy historical sites and the Salakkient gorge. This was our first time with Travel Talk Tours and we'd recommend the agency.

Turkish Delights

I think the Essential Turkey trip by land(12 days) overall, was a huge success even before it’s concluded. Everything went as planned. Having Mustafa as a guide was an icing on the cake. I referred to him SO many times for details, using the schedule by day and he individually answered everyone. Pretty impressed with their support.... I really appreciated the communication with me during the trip, particularly getting the whatsgroup made for us for the everyday update.... I had an absolutely fabulous time. I was traveling alone but never felt alone. You did an AMAZING job on this, Travel Talk and guide Mustafa, and I have already told people about you and your help. We will definitely travel together again in the near future!

Amazing Turkey tour!

I undertook the Essential Turkey 10 day tour with our guide Mustafa. He made our tour easy and extremely enjoyable. Very knowledgeable, accomodating and nothing was ever too much trouble for him to ensure all guests were comfortable. His humour and character enhanced the whole experience.

The itinerary covers all the amazing sights for a first time traveller to Turkey. The bus was always clean and the drivers were polite.

Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone going to Turkey!

Had a great time on our Balkan Discovery tour

My partner and I did the Balkan Discovery tour with Travel Talk, overall it was an amazing tour. It was very well organized , all hotels were fantastic, very comfortable rooms , well located . Bojan our guide was very good, he made us all feel very comfortable and had some very interesting and funny stories to tell along the way. Walking city tours in each destinations we've visited was a good learning experience.

Good tour but some sparkle missing

A generally good tour of Romania and Bulgaria. Great mixture of people.
Whilst the guide was very good (great knowledge and emphasis on keeping us together/safe) unusually they were a freelancer. Unfortunately the communication between them and Traveltalk didn’t seem great. They seemed to lack the ‘icing on the cake’ that other guides have had such as organising dinners in the evening (the group dinners weren’t honoured) and also advice on how to get back to the airport at the end.

Split to Dubrovnik Sail

I did the boat tour from Split to Dubrovnik in late June/early July. It was without doubt the highlight of my Europe trip, every day was so much fun, and I would recommend it to anyone that wants to see Croatia and enjoys some good nightlife. Our tour manager, Dora, was the best! Dora is Croatian and was highly knowledgeable about the best activities, restaurants, clubs, history etc. and always provided us with heaps of options to do each day and made sure to give us different options for restaurants to cater for everyone’s budget.
The white water rafting was amazing, and also the pub crawl on Hvar! Every day you moor up for swim stops in the bluest water and there’s always some free time for relaxing on a beach or on the boat which is much needed as most nights go late partying.
The ratio was pretty evenly split and the range of ages was maybe 20-35 which was good. Everyone except the crew was from Australia. Most people came with a couple friends, but as a solo traveller it is really easy to meet people and you get to know everyone really quickly! The karaoke in Split on night one was the BEST and the perfect ice breaker!!
The crew were great, I felt safe all the time. Blaz was the most attentive waiter, whenever you needed a drink he was there! Also the food was the best - really good mix of local Croatian cuisine and some Western foods too.
The cabins were small but exactly what you would expect in size for a boat. Everything was really clean and well maintained by the crew, Slavko, Ivan and Roko.
It had a good deck on the top for sunbathing. All in all this trip was amazing value and I would do it again!

Don't trust Traveltalk!!

Traveltalk was happy to take my deposit last 31st August 2022 but 8 months later cancelled the tour for tOctober 2023. With flights and hotels booked before and after of the tour, the cancellation (after our correspondence with Traveltalk was stamped CONFIRMED) left us loosing money and we had to rebook with another company to try and match the dates and had to pay $3000 more. This has left us disgusted with the service. Don't put your trust in the company!

Amazing Highlights of Turkey trip

I just came back from my 7 days Highlights of Turkey trip and I loved it ❤️

It was very interesting, very intensive, I saw and experienced so much, and it makes me so happy ❤️ Everything was great for me: itinerary, sightseeing places, transport, accommodations, food. Big thank to our guide Mustafa for doing great job 🙏

I even can not say, what is my highlight because all activities and places were amazing: Istanbul with its history and mosques, Cappadocia valleys and hot air Ballon flight, Pamukalle thermal pools and paragliding, old Ephesus with its cats 😂, and so tasty Turkish food and specially desserts 😍

Thank you TravelTalk for this amazing experience!🙏 This is my second tour with you and I would do it again, and always recommend the company to my friends 😊
See you soon 😍

This is our second travel talk tour

This is our second travel talk tour back to back and have found them amazing. Guides have been very knowledgeable and helpful in all areas of our tours. Drivers have always been friendly and greet you back on the bus with a smile.
Have recommended our Egypt 🇪🇬 and Turkey 🇹🇷 tours to all our friends and family, as they were both a life changing experience.

Amazing Turkey Tour!!!

First time using the company Travel Talk Tours after being recommended it by a friend. The tour covers the highlights of Central and Western Turkey. Ample time to explore all the areas. All hotels were excellent. The tour with our guide Mustafa has been an unforgettable experience. Mustafa has gone above and beyond to make this experience as smooth, interesting and enjoyable as possible. He is well informed, hilarious and easy going. It's the little things such as making sure everyone has ordered the correct meals and has started eating before he sits down for his meal. The company looks after their employees and the coach provided was clean (cleaned daily by the drivers), modern and comfortable.
