Türkiye - Oasis Highlights

There are so many highlights in this fascinating country that it is impossible to list them all here. Our travel consultants will discuss your interests and be able to put a specific itinerary together for you, but below are a few must see’s!

Istanbul

Istanbul, the city of the past, present and future, not only joins continents, but it also brings cultures and people together. Close your eyes and imagine the mysticism of the East and the modernity of the West and enjoy the constant time travel between past and the future, the balance of the traditional and the contemporary, from all over the world.

Samsun

Atatürk landed here on the 19th May 1919, to organise the defence of Anatolia. On that day Samsun acquired another historical dimension. The Atatürk Museum now houses many objects and documents from the past. There is an equestrian statue honouring the founder of the Turkish Republic standing in a prominent place in the city park. When Amisos was excavated in 1995, the treasure found in a square five-roomed cave carved out of the conglomerate rock is now on display in The Archaeology Museum.

Cappadocia

Cappadocia is the name given to that triangle of land that lies between Nevsehir, Nigde, and Aksaray. The area is a popular tourist destination in Turkey, as it has many areas with unique geological, historical, and cultural features. Spend a night in an elegantly renovated cave house, explore the ancient underground cities where thousands of people lived, take a sunrise balloon ride over the fairy chimneys. Prepare to be enchanted by the marvellous blend of cultural history and natural wonder.

Bodrum

Situated on a peninsula, Bodrum is one of the most chic and European resorts in Turkey, with its historical architecture, fantastic beaches, fishing villages and trendy nightclubs. Bodrum is also the yachting centre of Turkey and its world class marina is a favourite destination for yachts that cruise the Aegean and the Mediterranean.
