We had a wonderful time in your country, the people are very friendly, the
historical sites such as Troy & Ephesus are truly amazing.
We had an emotional time at Gallipoli, but thanks to our wonderful guide Captain
Ali Efe we learned a lot about our two countries. If you get the chance to meet
Captain Ali, please say thank you from the Old Navy guy.
The hotel at Canakkale was fantastic. Gaylene & I would like to visit Turkey
again in the future and we look forward to maybe meeting up with you then.

6 Days Tailor Made Western Turkey Tour.
Just to say how much we enjoyed our stay in Turkey. We were able to see much of
interest in Istanbul With the first three nights in the new town and then in
the old town after our flight back from Ismir, then had six nights with friends
in Adana before returning to UK. We were most impressed with the way you had
our 7 Churches tour organised so that we had no anxiety. Volcan was so well
informed, helpful in every way and a great guy to be with. Hussan provided us
with safe comfortable travel and was so considerate.
Thank you for providing such an excellent service which we continue to tell our
friends about.
Sincere Regards
Roger & Glynis Brain-UK.

I wanted to thank you again SO much for your excellent service and assistance
during our recent trip, particularly with all the changes we had to make with
my mother's medical problem. All of your arrangements were perfect, and
everything happened as arranged. We were very impressed with Turkey - people,
history, countryside and food. We particularly enjoyed getting to know Volcan
during our 3 days around Izmir.

I am writing to you to thank you very much indeed for the tour arrangements you
made for me during my recent visit to Turkey. All of the arrangements went very
smoothly, I had no problems whatsoever, and I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. As
you will recall, when I originally wrote to you about the trip, I simply told
you how long I had in Turkey, and asked for your suggestions. The itinerary you
put together for me was ideally suited to my needs, and to the time I had in
Turkey. When I visit Tukey again, I will definately contact you to ask for your
assistance. I will certainly also recommend your services to anyone I know who
is contemplating a visit. Once again, many thanks for your help.
Sincerely.

It was the best holiday that we have ever had. We really loved Turkey. However,
we have not gone back to Brazil straight away - we are spending this week in
London.
When we get back to Brazil we will contact you again to thank you very much for
everything that you did for us. However - we have to go back to Turkey to fly
on that balloon!
Very best wishes,

5 Days Tailor Made Western Turkey Tour.
Have been meaning to mail you and let you know again how much we enjoyed our
trip to Turkey. Thank you Umut for giving us your best guide, you are a lucky
travel agency to have such a treasure!
It was truly a great trip with Ovunc through southwestern Turkey, and Ovunc was
the main reason that it was so great. We all enjoyed being with her so much.
You made your country and its history come alive for us. We have let our
colleagues know of your company and hopefully they will use your services when
they come to Istanbul and beyond. We are back into the serious business of
teaching and it seems as though we have never been away on a break....
Take care and we hope that the tourists gain confidence and come to Turkey.

Thank you for all your help. We found the whole experience excellent and were
very well looked after by Sertan (Guide) and Okan (the driver). The hotels and
lunches were all of good quality. The coach trip was first class.
Thank you for being willing to proceed with this trip even though we were the
only guests. We will certainly recommend your company to our friends.
Sincerely.

7 Churches Tour.
The trip was wonderful and we had an excellent holiday. The taxis were always
there to take us to the airports or to pick us up. I had been a bit worried if
everything would go alright, since I had arranged it all on the internet. But
it was fine! The location in Athens - the Plaka Hotel - was very good as it was
so close to all the important sites. We walked all over and the view of the
Acropolis from the hotel at night (we were lucky to have one of those rooms one
night) was beautiful.
Greece is a lovely country and we do hope to return some day - there is still
more to see. We especially enjoyed driving around Crete as we rented a car
there for 3 days.
Thank you again for your services - I have mentioned your website to others.

19 Days Tailor Made Greece Mainland & Island Hopping Tour.
My Mrs and I had an excellent time. I was met at the airport in Athens, taken to
my hotel and we enjoyed a restful night at the Metropolitan Hotel. At 6:45 A.M.
We were picked up and taken to our ship out to our first adventure. Naxos was a
great place and full of history. We took many photo's or course and ate and ate
at most every place we could. I made sure we had a pint or two at each open air
bar we happened by and we were sad to have to leave the island. The people were
very nice.
Sailing on to Santorini was smooth and sunny and we loved the the stops at
various ports of call. The zig zag road made for a great first experience. I
rented a car and we explored the island. A good time was had by both of us and
we ate and ate in everyplace that was open. Had a few wine's and pints also.
Thank goodness every little store sells all a person needs to have a great
time. We left the island with many shots of the sights and sounds.
Spring was beautiful. Everyone was preparing for the people to come. Seems like
we were the first ones almost. What a view!!!
The eatery at the port before we left was fun and they treated us like we were
royalty. A man from Cairo Egypt was waiting on us there, ... what a great
person he is.
We left on a smaller boat and headed out to sea across Brilliant blue seas. I
was smiling all the time. When we got to Mykonos it was late and we were swept
to our hotel and almost tucked in for the evening in our soft bed and nice
room. We spent the next 3 days having the time of our lives exploring and the
history there was awesome. We did not want to leave.
When we returned to Athens we spent the next week exploring the city. It all
blended together and made for an experience that we will not forget. I told
many friends about my trip that were waiting excitedly for our return and an
update on the whole time. Many of then took your address and will no doubt be
calling on you for their great time out. Thank you for all your support and the
unforgettable time we had. I look forward to doing business with you and
iexploregreece again.
Many Thanks, Best Regards

8 Days Tailor Made Greek Islands Tour.
Jutta and I want to thank you for the great service you gave us for our Isle
Hopping Tour of Greece. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Athens and the Plaka
Hotel. Our visit to Crete was by far our favorite part of the tour. We rented a
little car and put on over 300KM on it as we toured the whole island! We had
great Sea Food in remote cities located far from our nice hotel. Your contacts
who met us as we arrived at each island were polite and very helpful to our
enjoyment of this tour. The only change I would make in the future is to have
flown from Rhodes to Thessaloniki instead of taking the overnight boat and then
the train to Larissa. The train trip was beautiful as we rode through the Greek
countryside. Again thank you for your help and fine service.
Sincerely,
Jack and Jutta Stroebel.
11 Days Greek Islands Tour.
We wish you a merry Merry Christmas and we also want to thank you for all your

all the team of your tour operator was very kind, we enjoyed every minute of it
and took lots and lots of pictures of beautiful Greece and the islands, we take
home happy memories of our time there and will always remember the kind people
of Greece, thank you again and we hope you enjoy this holiday season in the
company of your loved ones,

Re: 88 Pax Group-Greece & Turkey Tour Package, October 18 – 28, 2005
covering the following:
Athens sightseeing tour (Acropolis, Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian’s Arch,
etc.), and Delphi tour by bus; Cruise for 2 nights/3 days covering Greek
Islands such as Mykonos, Patmos and Rhodes; continue sightseeing tours by bus
covering Kusadasi-Epheses, Pamukkale-Laodicea, Smyrna-Pergamon-Sardes-Assos,
Assos-Troy-Istanbul. Istanbul sightseeing tour covering Byzantine & Ottoman
Relics, Dolmabahce Palace, Istanbul-Bosphorus Boat Cruise, etc.
Your tour package included a number of pre-historic-ancient sites and many sites
associated with an early Christian Churches in Greece and Turkey. Your price
for the above mentioned tour package including welcome and farewell dinner was
quite competitive. In addition, your company responded quite quickly for all of
the queries requested by us since our first contact. We are convinced that your
company is well organized in handling administrative matters and tour business
tasks.
Chosen Hotel accommodations were adequate for our needs and located in the City
centre in most of the cases. The location of the Hotels was particularly
important in large cities such as Athens and Istanbul. Two English speaking
tour-guides in Greece and Turkey were not only courteous and kind with fluent
English, but also quite knowledgeable about the subject matter. In addition,
your choice of two Korean-speaking translators, hired for those who came from
Korea, was excellent. They made it so easy for our classmates from Korea during
our trip.
As you are aware, it was a high school reunion. Our group consisted of 88
people, most of them are graduates of the same high school in Seoul, Korea, who
are currently residing in the United States, Canada, Germany and Korea.
Although the size of our group was big, your company provided a well-balanced
tour package of the pre-historic and early Churches, with excellent services
throughout our tour of Greece and Turkey. However, in one occasion, one of the
two tour buses assigned to us stalled many times, resulting in several
emergency stops to repair on the way to Istanbul. As a result, we arrived at
Istanbul for about 3 hours later than the scheduled arrival time. Your company
not only replaced the bus in question next morning, but also provided us with
free drinks at lunch to compensate for the hardship we had experienced.
Overall, as a representative and an organizer of the Greece & Turkey trip of
the Seoul High School Reunion, we had a memorable and enjoyable time together
in Greece and Turkey through your company’s well-balanced and -organized tour
package. I am prepared to recommend your company’s Greece & Turkey Tour
Package to others.
Yours truly

I would like to extend a word of thanks for the excellent job you did at
organizing our recent trip to Greece. We has fantastic time.
Number one was the transfers.....they where perfect!!!! On time, professional
just excellent.
The Hermes Hotel in Athens was ok but the Plaka Hotel was fantastic(it would be
my hotel of choice when we return). What a great location.
The Hotel in Santorini, was picture perfect. We would return there for a longer
stay in an instant.
The Mykonos Hotel had a great view. It was close to the street and a little bit
noisy but we didn't really find that to be a problem. Renting a scooter was a
perfect way to get around and really enjoy the island. The scooter also meant
that we didn't need to hike up and down the hill to go to the town.
We both really enjoyed the scooters that we rented on both islands(mykonos &
santorini). Their cost was very reasonable.
The cruise was pretty good and in some ways (meals) exceeded our expectations.
We signed up for all of the excursions, which typically meant that we had to
get up early every day. While it was exciting it was tiring.
I don't think I would organize such an ambitious agenda for a 10 day vacation in
the future, but would probably stay in one place for at least 4 or more days.
One thing is for sure, I will return to Greece for a vacation in the future.
We give the holiday an "A" grade in a large part to the excellent organizing
that you provided. So thank you, thank you, thank you....
Sincerely,
John & Linda Love-Canada.
11 Days Greece Island Hopping Tour.
Harvey and I had the greatest 25th anniversary vacation thanks to Frank and
Robert of ATB holidays. They planned a great itinerary for us and we were met
at every destination by a representative from the tour group to take us to our
next destination.We were then given our ferry and plane tickets so we did not
have to worry about a thing.The ferry and hydrofoils were a great way to get
from island to island.
The hotels that we stayed in were beautiful, and unforgettable .. Hermes in
Mykonos, and Andromeda in Santorini. The views were spectacular and the
locations were perfect. I recommend this company to anybody who wants a
wonderful vacation.
Thank you so much for all the caring and correspondence you gave to us that made
our trip such a sucess.

We have been back now for one week and I wanted to let you know how much we
enjoyed our trip. All of the arrangements with National Travel Service worked
perfectly. We all liked our guides in Cairo and in Upper Egypt very much. The
Miss Egypt was splendid. The transport was always there to meet us at every
point, the vans were comfortable and cool in the Egyptian heat. All-in-all it
couldn't have gone any better.
So thanks once again for all of your help and your many emails. Also thanks for
straightening out the airport pickup for our friend's son's arrival in Cairo.
I'll be glad to recommend your services to any of our friends who might be
considering a trip to Egypt.

18 Days Tailor Made Egypt Tour.
I am writing to commend you on the excellent job your agency
did in planning and executing our trip to Greece. Our group consisted
of 22 winners from a year long sales contest we held, and I wanted
to make sure that they were treated like gold! We were met at
the airport on time, by a smiling and knowledgeable guide, with
a large welcoming sign. Our guides and transfer to the airport
and ports were always on time and professional. Our guide made
sure we were checked into the hotel properly, and answered all
our questions. The hotels you recommended were superb, with great
food and service!
I must admit that I was a little nervous as we set down in Athens,
as I had been unable to do an on-site check before our trip, and
wondered how we would find our guide. My fears were immediately
calmed the moment we set foot in the airport. A hearty thanks
to Evanna for everything she did for us in Athens.
The live entertainment dinner you arranged was a smash, and we
connected to the ferries effortlessly.
So thanks for all your hard work. I know you worked some late
hours due to the time difference between your location and Canada.
Please feel free to use this letter as a recommendation to anyone
contemplating using your services.
Sincerely,
Tony Sibbald
