"My recent trip to Turkiye was an unforgettable experience. With the help of TDT I was able to see unexplored parts of the amazing country and mingle with the locals. Staff is very experienced and knowledable. They were able to tailor my trip for the places I wanted to see. They really did make me feel like I had a friend in Turkiye."

- Karina Rodriguez - El Salvador

"Thank you Karina! It was our pleasure to help you. Turkish Delight Tours will always be your trusted friend In Türkiye!"

- Inan, Tour Leader

 PASSPORT / VISA for US Citizens  

             Be aware that a Turkish Visa is required to enter the country.  This visa is routinely obtained during the normal custom’s check-in procedure after your arrival. No need to fret about it!  You will need your passport and $20 cash for a 90-day sticker visa at the port of entry. You land, collect your luggage, get in the line for visa quite quickly. Once it is your turn to hand your passport over pay the $20 (in US dollars) and your visa will be approved at the drop of a stamp! -Next person in line please! You will be surprised how incredibly easy and quick that was, especially after flying in high security US airports. Welcome to Türkiye. 

    SMALL GROUPS of 6 to 14 PEOPLE or Your Own Group!     

             Travelers will rendezvous with the Turkish Delight Tours tour leader at the airport in Istanbul. He will be aware of your flight and will hold a placard sign with your family name.  If you are joining the tour from America and if you happened to meet Inan in Colorado, then you probably will have arranged the meeting with him. You might as well be on the same plane to  with him! Keep your eyes peeled after you depart from the baggage claim area and enter the main arrival’s area, as this is standard protocol and you will be initially overwhelmed with the numbers of greeters and their signs!

If the arrival times of members are scattered throughout the day, every consideration will be taken to transport you to our hotel at the earliest convenience in order to rest and recuperate from the long flight. 



PLEASE SCHEDULE YOUR FLIGHT TO ARRIVE IN DESTINATION AIRPORT BEFORE 6:00 P.M. AS Turkish Delight Tours WILL PROVIDE A WELCOME DINNER, INTRODUCTIONS, AND A REVIEW OF THE NEXT DAY ACTIVITIES BEFORE AN EARLY BEDTIME AT OUR HOTEL!
