evening. (D).
Day 2: Istanbul.
Following the breakfast we will drive to the old city where we
will visit the Topkapi Palace. Perched on a hill that commands
the Sea of Marmara, the Bosphorus, and the Golden Horn, this
vast complex has been the seat of government of the Ottoman
Empire for many centuries (1453-1852). You will see the Blue
Mosque, the Basilica of St.Sophia, the Kariye Museum and the
Underground Cistern. We will finish up the day in the bustling
Grand Bazaar , with nearly 4000 shops of antiques, jewelry,
gold, carpets and leatherwear. (B/L).
Day 3: Istanbul / Cappadocia.
Early in the morning we will fly to Kayseri for the Cappadocia
Valley in the heart of the Anatolian Plateau, and marvel at the
twisted lunar landscape. Successive eruptions of a now-extinct
volcano left the plateau covered with volcanic tuff, which was
transformed by intense erosion into beautiful landscapes of
cones, columns, and canyons. Between the 4th and 13th centuries
Christians hewed dwellings and sanctuaries from the rock,
totally incorporating the architecture into the landscape. (B/ D).
Day 4: Cappadocia.
Further exploration today includes the Valley of Fairy Chimneys,
Goreme Valley, with its Byzantine rock churches, the city of
Zelve and the subterranean city of Kaymakli. Overnight in
Cappadocia. (B/D).
Day 5: Cappadocia / Ankara / Izmir.
Following the breakfast we will drive to Ankara , where you'll
visit the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations and the mausoleum of
Kemal Ataturk, the founder of modern Turkey. Ankara is the
