| About
Journey Anatolia |
| We
are passionate about Turkey and have a vision of
low impact, sustainable tourism. The company is founded on
a simple principle: to present the wonders of Turkey in a responsible
manner.
To get a more rounded experience
we believe the visitor should not be
bombarded with facts and text book details but be submerged in
atmosphere and subtleties. Not only visit the glossy highlights
but also the quirky, off-the-beaten-track destinations too, delving
into local lifestyles, cultures and cuisine.
We
work with tour
leaders and professional guides who have been selected for their
charismatic approach and true passion for Turkey. Not
only will they endevour to make sure your tour runs smoothly
at all times, they will also provide
valuable local insights to enrich your trip. |

| Accommodation
in Turkey |
| A good guest house can add a magical twist to your holiday or tour in Turkey. We favour unique, family run, intimate establishments that manifest individual character and genuine charm. Whether a chalet on Olympos beach, a Cappadocia cave room or a country cottage in Assos, our primary guest houses are chosen for their charismatic appeal, personal service and attention to detail. |

| Tours
in Turkey and Road
Travel |
| Turkey
is an epic drama, an awesome land with a landscape and culture that
never fails to charm the visitor. To ensure you fully enjoy
your tour in Turkey, we choose to travel in small groups,
thus not only offering you a more intimate way to discover the
country but a more personal service too.
Our holidays celebrate
the real culture of Turkey, its people, its extreme landscapes
and its natural wonders. We want to share with you a vision of
Turkey that truly differs from the mainstream.
On the Road
We believe the road is
as much a highlight of any Turkey tour as the destinations themselves.
The road generates a sense of adventure, a sense of expectation.
It is on the road that one experiences the vast expanses of Turkey
- dramatic mountain ranges, seemingly endless flat lands, thick forests
of the Black Sea region and the rugged coastline of the Mediterranean.
With this in mind, any Turkey tour with Journey Anatolia celebrates
the pleasures of the road, be it stopping to take a photo, to buy
honey from a vendor or simply to admire the scenery.
