Turkey is a vast country stretching from the Black Sea in the north to the Mediterranean in the south and from the barren east to the sparkling blue waters of the Aegean Sea in the west. Turkey is steeped in history and is truly the land of welcomes. Turkish people are, by nature, very open, warm, friendly, honest and welcoming.
Formerly known as Byzantium by the Greeks, Constantinople by the Romans and Istanbul by the Ottomans, Istanbul offers a great combination of historical and cultural heritage, providing striking examples of art and architecture alongside the contemporary buildings of the modern world.
Described as a fusion of East and West, the city of Istanbul is unique as it is the only city in the world where one can take a cruise between two continents, on the Bosphorus that separates Europe and Asia.
The great mosques, colourful bazaars and tangled streets of Istanbul will guarantee you an excitingly different experience!
