How to plan your trip to Turkey? Here's what you need to know to do it yourself, or take a tour, or a mixture of both.

Among the best introductory tours to Turkey is Classical Turkey, a 14-day itinerary by Argeus Tourism & Travel. More...

TAKE A CITY TOUR OR EXCURSION
Take a half- or full-day city tour to get your bearings and see the major sights before exploring on your own. Or take an escorted excursion from a major Turkish city to a nearby region of interest. Mix and match these services as you choose to design your own unique itinerary. A good travel agency will be happy to help you plan and to make all the arrangements.

DO IT YOURSELF
Use TripKits™, my suggested daily itineraries. (See also my Special Interest Trips) and perhaps the services of a licensed private guide.

Excursions from Istanbul: From beach day-trips to overnights or multi-day excursions, here are the best ones.

1 to 5 Days: From a single day in Istanbul to a five-day Turkish adventure, here are the TripKits™ you need.

6 to 10 Days: You can see all of Turkey's top sights and enjoy its pleasures, too—even a yacht cruise or hot-air balloon flight!

11 to 15 Days: More time means more depth and more fun: sidewalk cafes, beaches, ancient ruins, and more.

16 to 23 Days: This is time enough for a Grand Tour, including sights off the beaten path.

24 to 30+ Days: The whole country is yours, even the adventurous East! Here's how to make the best of this generous amount of time.
