Experience the magic of a Turkey Tour

With a Joe Walsh Tour to Turkey, you can discover the melange of ancient history and traditions, and breath-taking sceneries that the country has on offer, writes Trish Whelan.

Explore Istanbul, the capital of the empires which dominated continents and the meeting point of cultures and civilisations. See the architectural masterpieces of Byzantine and Ottoman empires in their original setting.

Then catch a flight to see Cappadocia's surreal scenery of rugged gorges, rock-carved villages and 'fairy chimneys' from a hot air balloon at dawn and get mesmerised by the whirling dance of the dervishes in Konya. The bay town of Belek is a top spot for golfers.
