Dear Colleagues,
Happy New Year!
As we begin 2023, or as some will say, Year of the Rabbit or Cat, it is wonderful to see so many people booking to travel this year. And it is even more exciting to learn that Turkey and/or Greece are on travelers' bucket lists.
With over 45 years in the business of creating memorable vacations to Turkey, Greece, Japan, and many other bucket list destinations, we use our experience to produce the kind of trips that make you, the travel advisor, look good. We have always relied on our travel partners and do not market to the consumer. We believe our relationship with you and our consistent high quality service are keys to our success for almost half a century.
Istanbul, is one of the world's most admired cities and its new airport immediately impresses visitors. Considered the largest in the world, Magister makes it easy for visitors to meet their guide by directing them to an appropriate exit. One hour later your clients are at their hotel.
There are many new hotels in this vibrant Turkish city. Along the Bosphorus, you will find Mandarin Oriental, JW Marriott, and Peninsula, while Movenpick Istanbul overlooks the Golden Horn, and The Westin Istanbul Nisantasi is ideally located for shopping at world renowned designer boutiques.
We recommend a minimum of three nights in Istanbul. But one can spend a week there and still have more to do and see. Walk the walls, take a cooking class, visit historic sights in the Old City, explore museums and art galleries, browse the shops on Istaklal Street, cruise the Bosphorus, and so much more.
