  We were a group of 2 couples that visited Istanbul and Cappadocia in May. Ibrahim and his crew made sure that our trip was planned to perfection. The guides offered great knowledge about Turkish history, geography, culture, tradition and lifestyle. The guides Kerim and Ayan( Farhad) were very friendly and helpful. Both hotels that we stayed at in Istanbul and Cappadocia were clean, centrally located and well furnished. Special mention to the Dedali Konak Cave hotel that was surrounded by amazing natural beauty. If I ever return to Turkey to visit other beautiful cities, I will certainly engage with Yuki Tours. We will relish the memories of this trip forever. Thank you Ibrahim and the crew for making our trip so memorable.
