Tour Reviews
Reminder Tour planned a perfect Turkey trip for us. Everything was very well organized, personalized, and we enjoyed every moment of our journey. Turkey is a magical country, and they made our trip truly unforgettable.
From beginning to end, excellent service. Always very responsive, everything was on time, and tour guides were very knowledgeable.
Thank you for this smooth trip!
We are a family of four and decided to book this tour. Everything was personalized, the hotels were exceptionally clean and of high quality, and the team was incredibly friendly. They made us feel right at home. This experience definitely deserves a 5-star rating. Hope to comeback again.
Thank you.
We (a party of 3) had a wonderful 3-Day Private Guided Tour of Istanbul with Salih, an awesome Spanish speaking guide. It’s like you travel to a city to meeting a good friend that takes the time to show you “the best of Istanbul’s must-see attractions” as it’s offered at https://www.remindertour.com/tours/3-day-private-guided-tour-of-istanbul/
If you are planning a stopover in Istanbul I absolutely suggest to take one of the Reminder private tours, in the best use of your time; and if you have more time or want to visit other cities in Türkiye I’m sure they will give you the same excellent service.
We hope to come back soon and visit other places in Türkiye with the excellent service of Reminder Tour.
Reminder Tour is a great travel agency. They offer a complete PRIVATE tour, I traveled with my sister and we both had the drivers and the Tour Guides for ourselves.
The private cars were very clean and always on time, the tour guides were very helpful, professional, friendly and knowledgeable.
The hotel in Istanbul it is very close to a few attractions.
In Cappadocia at the hotel,we had 2 great dinners that are included.
In Kuşadası the hotel has breathtaking views.
In general an amazing experience you won’t regret to get the tour with them, they are going to ask you to make 2 payments prior your arrival and they are going to send you a link to make those payments. I know is sounds scary but just trust them and if one of your credit cards does not get approved, use a different one.
We left Türkiye loving the culture, the food and the people.
Reminder Tours was an excellent choice! Their services and VIP treatment was outstanding , punctual and professional. The tour guides were knowledgeable and helpful not to mention super friendly! The vehicle drivers and private transportation was quite enjoyable. We flew all over Turkey and without any glitches had a guide and driver greet us. I highly recommend Reminder Tours to anyone, any age and anytime. Rest assured I will most certainly use them again on my next trip to Turkey!
Reminder Tours gave us a wonderful experience in Turkey and Cappadocia. Furkan was very helpful from even before we set foot in Turkey with emails and how he was constantly available if we had questions via WhatsApp once we were there. Our Istanbul guide Öykü was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable about the places and took us on a kind of mini food tour on what to eat around the Galata area. She also gave us recommendations on eating one of the best kebabs at the Asia side even if she wasn’t with us. She informed us where and how to get to certain places so it was very easy of us to go back to buy the best baklava I’ve tasted for taking back home. In Cappadocia, our guide Yarkin was excellent as well. He gave us quite a lot of background and history in the places we visited. He also gave us suggestions on the best places for photo and views and food recommendations. We were never rushed and could take our time around places. Reminder Tours also booked out the balloon ride in Cappadocia so we didn’t have to worry about slots or looking for a company to take us. The drivers for all the outings as well as pick up and drop off to the airport were friendly and helpful. Thank you Reminder tours for taking care of us during our vacation.
I am a solo traveller and returned last week (May 2024) from a private 12-day tour of Türkiye including Istanbul, Ephesus, Pamukkale and Cappadocia. The tour went smoothly and was well organized by Reminder Tours and included all aspects of tour planning. I didn’t have to worry about anything. Just show up. I have minor mobility issues and the company was flexible and accommodating. It was a slow tour, so I was able to take breaks when needed. All the tour guides Hazal (Istanbul), Bilge (Ephesus and Pamukkale) and Bülent (Cappadocia) were informative, fun and engaging. The drivers Ertan (Ephesus and Pamukkale) and Mehmet (Cappadocia) were on time and similarly accommodating. I definitely recommend Reminder Tours.
