Fitting a Turkey tour into one week of leave

Many people planning a Turkey trip from Pakistan have one week to spare, not two. The 7 day tour is built for that. It has 6 nights and covers Istanbul, a day in Bursa and Antalya on the south coast.

Count the travel days before you ask for leave. Flights leave from Lahore, Karachi or Islamabad and a return international ticket is part of the fare. There is also one domestic flight inside Turkey, from Istanbul to Antalya. Ask the company which day that flight is on and what time you reach the hotel afterwards.

The first five days are spent in Istanbul and Bursa. The Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace are on the plan, along with the ferry to the Princes' Islands. A local Turkish guide and transport inside Turkey come with the tour, so a short trip does not need extra planning on the ground.

If a week is too short for your group, the 10 day tour adds Cappadocia, Pamukkale and Konya. Both lengths run through the year on request, and the next date is confirmed through a WhatsApp enquiry.

Fares for both lengths are listed on this website, so check the current table before you fix your leave dates.
