  • My first time travelling in Türkiye, and my two weeks was built around a 7 day bespoke group tour I hosted with Intrepid Travel.
    In this episode we travel to Göreme in Cappadocia, doing the famous hot air balloon ride at sunrise.
    We also visit the Zelve Open Air Museum and underground city.
    Finishing up the trip we travel down to the south coast to the towns of Antalya and Kaş, including a boat tour to the sunken city of Kekova.

    Me and my family spent 10 nights in Turkiye in October this year. 4 nights in Istanbul, 3 nights in Cappadocia and 3 nights in Antalya. I absolutely loved the trip and will never forget it. InShaAllah, I hope to return to Turkiye again 🫶🏼💜

Turkey is a secular country, so you don't need to worry about that. Especially, if you want to live in more developed cities such as Istanbul, Izmir, Ankara, and Antalya, people won't mind whether you are a Muslim or a Christian etc.

    Hi Karl. It seems I was in Cappadocia and Antalya at exactly the same time as you, (10th June to .24th June). But I went independent from Istanbul, getting public trains and buses everywhere. Then all day walks all around the different Cappadocia valleys. Fantastic country and I plan to go back again this summer to carry on filming for my new CZcams channel.

    Hi Karl, thank you for calling my country’s real name which is Türkiye. 🥰😍👍🙏
    Yes, you are right. The journey was organised the wrong way. Also there is an airport in izmir which is very closed to Selçuk Efes so you could have flown from there rather from Istanbul. It looks like you spent extra too much time on the road unnecessarily but as you said you met loads of nice people to share the journey with. I loved every minute of watching your video and feeling homesick now as I live in the UK.
    Thanks again Karl.
