SILVER TÜRKİYE · PRIVATE SMALL GROUP
A well-paced introduction to Istanbul, Cappadocia and Ephesus for friends, families or an organized community travelling together.

THE SILVER IDEA
Silver keeps the essentials strong: a sensible route, comfortable hotels, a group-exclusive vehicle, scheduled private guiding and enough free time to enjoy Türkiye. Your proposal names the hotel categories, guide days, entrances and transfers.
11 DAYS / 10 NIGHTS
Our cultural base route: Istanbul 3 nights + Cappadocia 2 + Kuşadası / Ephesus 4 + Istanbul 1. For October 10–20, 2026, arrive on the 10th and depart on the 20th.
Settle in after arrival. Explore the historic quarter with your guide, discover Bosphorus neighbourhoods and leave time for a hamam or food walk. Visit the bazaar if it interests you.
Fly on separately purchased tickets, then explore the valleys and heritage sites. Optional sunrise ballooning depends on weather and operator confirmation.
Travel via İzmir and settle into one coastal base. Give Ephesus a dedicated guided day; enjoy Şirince, an optional boat outing and a full day at your own pace. Scheduled flight connections must be checked before finalizing the route.
Return to Istanbul on Day 10 and sleep here before your international departure on Day 11. Ground airport transfers are specified in your proposal; all air tickets are separate.
Ask for an individually priced extension or route change. Pamukkale is best considered with an overnight and its road-transfer time. Bodrum can replace the Aegean base or extend the trip. Helicopter, balloon and yacht experiences are separately quoted.

OPTIONAL, NOT HIDDEN
Each add-on is separately priced and clearly marked. No carpet showroom, leather factory or commission detour is inserted without the group’s informed request.
SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND
Ten nights in quality 4-star or characterful boutique hotels, shared twin rooms and breakfast; group-exclusive ground transfers and minibus; scheduled English-speaking guide days; listed entrance fees; defined local assistance.
Ballooning, private cruises, hamam, food experiences, selected meals, single occupancy and additional guide hours. Included only when itemized in the written proposal.
All domestic and international air tickets, baggage and airline changes; visas, insurance, unlisted meals and drinks, shopping, discretionary gratuities and personal expenses.
PRELIMINARY LAND BUDGET
Based on 8–14 paying guests sharing twin rooms for the 11-day / 10-night Silver scope. This is a working range, not a supplier-backed offer.
Fewer than eight guests: reprice the journey or move to Gold Private Türkiye. Final group size, dates, hotels, currency, taxes and services determine the written amount.

WHO SILVER FITS
Best for an existing group that wants a shared schedule and strong value. If different travellers need private daily choices, leading suites, continuous hosts or 24/7 concierge orchestration, compare Gold Private Türkiye or Signature Luxury.
