The glue that held the tour together was our marvelous
guide. Hakan is fluent in English, highly educated and familiar with the
complexities of Turkey's very long history. Even more important, Hakan is a
gentle and gracious young man with a very positive attitude and a good sense of
humor. He is a true ambassador of Turkey.
Thanks Hakan, We loved the
tour.

Dear Hakan,Ian and I wish to thank you for making our first bustour holiday so enjoyable. We both appreciated your efforts to import your knowledge of and enthusiasm for turkey to us.
As you know, much of Turkish life and culture is largely unknown to westerners, and your talks ( lectures ) were informative and provided the knowledge base which enhanced our enjoyment and appreciation of the country , its people , and its rich past.
