PHOENICIA TRAVEL| Exclusive Private Tours

CUSTOMIZED SHORE EXCURSIONS

Forget about the rush! Customize your own tours and enjoy your tour in Turkey with us. We know the exact onboard time of your cruise liner. We will pick you up from your port, and leave you at the end of our tour ON TIME thanks to our previous experiences.

Customize your tours and join the adventure on your own terms. Experience complete freedom and flexibility on a tailor-made tour designed only for you. Leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind, and mingle freely with the locals. Our best-in-class local tour guides will be there for you. Seize every moment you get. Visit Ephesus, and explore its villages either by bicycle or with our comfy private vehicles.

Connect with the local people! Savor the moment and be in awe of your surroundings by bringing mindfulness to your travels. Take a deep dive into traditional Mediterranean cuisine with an intimate hands-on cooking experience. Not in a regular restaurant, meet with a local host in a Turkish village or a farm and have the chance to learn their traditional family recipes passed down through the generations. Enjoy all the colors of green on endless vineyards while sipping your Turkish wine in a Turkish village. Smell, swirl and sip to feel what Greek Gods once felt while enjoying the grapes of this region.

There are many options to experience this paradise-like country: lay back, meander, hike, cycle, sea kayak, SUP (Stand-Up-Pedal)...etc. Just make your choice, and leave the rest to us. Connect with the locals, and the region genuinely.

How can I make a reservation?

You just send us a tour inquiry with your travel dates, group size, and tour concept. Our reservation team will be in touch with you within 24 hours with the tour options and prices. Then we take your reservation in our system with a confirmation mail.
What is the price of the tour that I’d want to go on?

There are different prices for each tour concept depending on the tour inclusions and durations. Your group size also affects the tour price. For that reason, you must ask the quotations for each tour with your tour inquiry.
Who is leading our tours?

Who will be our tour guide? This is the most important question for many travelers before booking private tours. Phoenicia Travel creates bespoke tours in different concepts, for that reason you’ll know about your local expert tour guide before meeting him/her. We engage expert and friendly tour guides for each tour concept with high communication skills and fluency in English.
Do you require a deposit payment for the tour bookings?

We don’t ask for any payment for daily tours. You pay for your tour on-site in cash to your tour guide. But if you’d like to make a tour booking for a multiple-day round trip, we send you a tour contract to sign and ask 30% down payment during your reservation.
Do you take credit cards?

Yes, if you’d like to pay with your credit card, you can make the payment with your card. We must let our reservation team know about your payment type while your reservation. Credit card payments require %18 VAT as a government duty on top of the tour price.
What about the tour vehicle like?

All of our minivans have certain standards with the model and year of build. They are all new models of Mercedes Benz Sprinter (12 seats) or Vito minivans (4 seaters) with air conditioner systems and comfortable seats. Our minivans have a fridge inside for ready cold water during the tour. All vehicles are non-smoking minivans for your comfort and to offer fresh air inside.
How about the drivers?

They are all very experienced drivers and registered professional tourism drivers by the Turkish government. They are helpful, kind people and always smiling. :)
How do we meet the groups?

Your tour guide will be holding a board at the exit gate of the port with your name.
