More about Turkey Discover Turkey
- Drink a real Turkish coffee. This isn't just a heart-starter in the morning, it's a ritual that should be savoured and appreciated in a local cafe.
- Try a Turkish bath, or hammam. You'll be steamed, scrubbed and pounded in the quest for wellness, but it will be worth it and it's one of those things you need to do at least once in your life!
My Travel Experience Review
You'll benefit greatly from being on an escorted tour in Turkey, especially to experience the ANZAC Day Dawn Service at Gallipoli. This trip offers a good balance of included activities and free time
