Tour Detail
PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENT
This tour is operated with a minimum participation requirement of 30 people. If sufficient participation is not achieved, the final cancellation notice date is 20 days before the tour start date. Any tour canceled due to insufficient participation will be notified to you through our agency.
VISA
Ordinary Passport ✅ Visa required
Green Passport ❌ Visa not required
Service Passport ❌ Visa not required
You must have a passport valid for 6 months from the date the trip ends and not older than 10 years.
For destinations requiring a visa, the visa application must be submitted with the documents specified in the “Documents Required for Visa” list that your agency will send to you. In order to avoid any issues with customs police at the border of the country to be visited due to torn, worn, wet and/or similarly damaged passports; such passports should be renewed, and if the destination is a country that applies visas to Turkish citizens, the relevant visa must be in the new passport. Otherwise, responsibility belongs to the passenger. Since our guests under 18 traveling alone or with only one of their parents may be asked by the officer at entry and exit points to present a document showing the mutual consent of both parents; we recommend that our guests under 18 and their parents be attentive to this matter.
*Having a valid passport and/or having obtained a visa (for the visa-required destination/passport) does not mean that entry into the country will be allowed. The passport police have the authority to deny you entry. Our agency is not responsible for this situation; responsibility belongs to the passenger.
* As of April 10, 2026, within the scope of the European Entry/Exit System (EES) implemented in European Union countries, passport control procedures at border crossings are carried out by taking biometric data (fingerprint and facial recognition).
Due to this application, congestion, long waiting times, system delays, or biometric data not being readable may occur at airports and border gates.
These processes are entirely under the control of the relevant country’s border security units, and our agency has no authority to intervene. Therefore, our agency cannot be held responsible for any delays, waiting times, or resulting disruptions to the program.
It is strongly recommended that our guests’ passports be physically in suitable condition, that there be no conditions that could prevent biometric data collection (cuts, wounds, heavy cream, etc.), and that sufficient time be allowed for border procedures.
“This application is an international security procedure, and all guests who purchase the tour are deemed to have accepted this process.”
CURRENCY
The currency used in European countries is the Euro. It is recommended that you carry small amounts of Euros with you.
TIME ZONE

For example, when it is 18:30 in Turkey in summer, it is 17:30 in Europe.
FOOD CULTURE

HEALTH
We do not think you will encounter any health issues that could threaten your well-being with meals taken at the region’s good restaurants and hotels. However, when you are not with the group, we recommend being careful about food and drink, definitely consuming only bottled water, avoiding ice, milk and dairy products, eating meat and fish products that you are sure are well cooked, and for fruit, eating fruits that can be peeled, such as bananas and pineapples.
We strongly recommend that you obtain a report and invoice from the health facilities where you receive treatment in case of health problems or injuries that may occur due to reasons beyond your control. This will be beneficial if you need it for insurance-related procedures.
