Why Choose AlaTourqo? Turkey's Most Trusted Tour Experience

"Can I trust this company?" — If that's your first question when planning a Turkey tour, you're asking exactly the right thing. The internet is full of travel agencies. What sets AlaTourqo apart is experience, transparency and details that genuinely matter.

Here's what makes us different — with real examples.

11 Years of Experience, A New Vision

The AlaTourqo brand may look new — but the team behind it has been doing this for 11 years.

We restructured under the AlaTourqo name to better serve European travellers and the global diaspora community. The brand is new; the expertise isn't. Over 11 years, we've organised hundreds of tours and guided thousands of participants across every corner of Turkey.

That experience shows in every tour we run today: the right hotels, the right restaurants, the right routes.

Elite Restaurants — No Extra Cost

This is often the biggest surprise: restaurant stops on our tours are fully included.

Real examples from our tours:

• In Diyarbakır: Traditional liver kebab and stuffed ribs at a historic mansion — order anything from the menu, no extra charge
• In Gaziantep: Baklava breakfast and regional specialities at one of the city's most storied venues — included
• On the Black Sea: Fresh anchovy at a local fisherman's restaurant — included
• In the Aegean: Fresh fish at a coastal village restaurant after a boat tour — included

Many things that other companies list as "optional extras" are standard inclusions on AlaTourqo tours.

Included Activities — No Surprise Costs

Standard inclusions across our tours:

• 🚢 Boat tours on Aegean and Black Sea routes — no extra charge
• 🏛️ All museum and archaeological site entrances
• 🚌 All intercity transfers
• 🍽️ Included restaurant meals at selected stops
• 🎧 Professional guide (Turkish; English or German available on request)

The result: Most of our participants spend almost nothing extra during the tour itself. Just bring personal spending money for souvenirs and anything extra you fancy.
