Hi pierced,
I paid about $2047 (inclusive of taxes) for 10 days in Turkey and its full board (7 breakfast, 7 lunch and 7 dinners)...the rest of the meals are provided on board...
They did mentioned that the hotels provided were all 4 stars and 5 stars.(2 days)
My current tour group has 6 ppl so have to wait for 4 more before the tour is confirmed...if you want, you can consider CTC and departure on 13th May 2006...then we will have a higher chance of travelling to Turkey
I surveyed all the big travel agents, SATours, Chan Bros and Dynasty...here is the breakdown:
1) SATours - Price resonable, about the same as CTC. But they need a minimum of 15 to depart thus I was worried that they had a slimmer chance of departuring.
2) Dynasty - Service very good, price wise, they are about $20 more ex than CTC. Minimum departure also requires 10 ppl
3) Chan Bros - Service sucked, they are not keen to serve, so we walked out...
4) CTC - Service was good, the agent knew all the places of interest well..price is very good..and has the date we want and the most number of ppl in a group for departure
Hope this information helps!
