Hello Ilgin!
 
We had a wonderful trip. All the hotels you recommended were just perfect! Our guides (Volkan in Izmir and Alec in Cappadocia) were just great and they represented your agency well. It would be difficult to say what my favorite part of the trip was-all regions we visited were just wonderful and we were able to meet our schedule every day. Most of the tours were “private”, which was a nice treat. We learned so much and really felt like we experienced Turkey’s riches.We took hundreds of photographs and it will be fun to relive the memories when they are developed.

Thank you so much for your superb service. Please feel free to use me as a reference for your clients.
 
Warm Regards, Nicholas Wyman Philadelphia, PA/The United States

Helene and I can’t thank you enough for the attention you gave to making our trip such a wonderful experience. We found your country to be an overwhelming adventure. The people, the food, the accommodations, the guides, the Geology, the closeness to antiquity all added up to a wonderful experience for us and our fellow travelers.

By the way, we told Dr. Haas how much we enjoyed our trip. He’s also looking forward to visiting your wonderful country.

Hi Ilgin,
 
First and foremost, YOU were an excellent resource for us in Turkey. Your services were professional, friendly, prompt, clear, and straightforward. You represented everything accurately and comprehensively, and our trust in your recommendations proved well founded. We were especially happy that you were willing to meet us in our hotel the afternoon of our arrival to personally hand us our tickets and materials, and to greet us with your warm personality and cheerful willingness to help in any way. And when on the day before our departure you helped us with the lost plane ticket by confirming that we only needed our identification, you gave us great peace of mind.

We thoroughly enjoyed the day tour you arranged for us on our first full day in Istanbul. As I’m sure you know, Betty spoke perfect English and had an excellent knowledge of the history of Turkey, and of Istanbul in particular. She also had a delightful personality which enhanced the tour, and we not only enjoyed seeing the sights but also enjoyed her company. How fortunate we were to have such a well informed and delightful guide. Thank you for making these arrangements, Ilgin, and please let Betty know very pleased we were with her service.

Our trip to Izmir proved beyond our expectations. How could we know that you would arrange for such a knowledgeable and delightful guide, who also was an instructor at a university? The tour of Ephesus and the surrounding sites proved fascinating, and Baha’s depth of knowledge truly impressive. His fluent, articulate English made him a joy to listen to, and we found ourselves asking him to delve more into the very academic details, partly because we had such a keen interest, and partly because he presented everything so well.

Both of these tours proved extremely worthwhile, Ilgin, and the educational aspects were made all the more enjoyable because of the excellent guides. Your arrangements made everything go quite smoothly-there was not a single glitch. They also were just the right length of time for us, allowing us to spend time walking around Istanbul for the remainder of our week. Your other recommendations of places to visit in the city were also helpful, and we especially enjoyed the Spice Bazaar, even more than the Grand Bazaar. We visited the Dolmabace Palace, and then walked from there to the areas you recommended, and then walked down to the Hotel Marmara in the early evening where we had a glass of wine in the bar on the top, enjoying the spectacular view of the Bosphorus.

For your information, we also were quite pleased with our choice of hotel. The Blue House was clean, comfortable, conveniently located, and very hospitable. The service was excellent, and all of our meals delicious. I would highly recommend the Blue House to any traveler, and I already wrote them to that effect.

Thank you, Ilgin, for all of your help. We would heartily recommend your agency, and especially you, to anyone traveling to Turkey. You understood what we were looking for and you provided it at a reasonable cost, with a complete description before we paid. Everything went as you said it would, and you were very helpful even after the tours were completed. You helped make our trip easy, educational, and pleasant, and your professional manner along with your warm personality made us feel fortunate to have found you. Of course, Tom Brosnahan had recommended you to us, and hence he is receiving a copy of this e-mail. His faith in you is well deserved.

Thank you, again, Ilgin. Please feel free to quote any of our remarks on your website.

Hi Sila, Date: November 09, 2009

Our guide in Bodrum was the BEST! Loved her and wish we had more time there to explore. Istanbul was great...the hotels both were adequate not glamorous but the location was great! Loved being in the old city. Our two young guides in Istanbul and Cappadocia were the best. Enthusiastic, fun and very willing to discuss! We loved Turkey!!!

Dear Bahar, Date: November 06, 2009

We had a wonderful trip in Turkey on the tour that you put together for us. I think the cave hotel in Cappadocia was our favorite. We were impressed with the quality of Roman (and other) ruins in Turkey in comparison with those in Italy where we have traveled extensively. The guides were terrific and were ready to provide far more information on any subject than we could absorb. We will certainly recommend Credo to friends wanting to tour Turkey.


Thanks again, Norman Stubbs USA

I cannot believe I have not e-mailed you before this. I meant to do it promptly upon our return but have totally forgotten that I had not done so!

We loved, loved, loved Cappadocia! The hotel was wonderful, Faruk was delightful (and so well informed, energetic and fun!), and the sights were beyond my imagination! I was totally captivated by the entire area! We loved Turkey! The people were so nice and the history is staggering. I must say we were stunned by the knowledge of our guides. They were excellent. We have already told you how much we liked Riza, and we felt the same about Faruk. We arrived home safely and have enjoyed the time since reflecting on our great time in your country. Thank you so much for all the planning, the arrangements, everything! Hope you are doing well.



Love, Lince Mullis USA
