Bulent,
How are things going in Turkey?  I hope all is well.  I am sorry it has taken so long for me to write back, but I have been ridiculously busy with various "critical tasks" (I.e. working on Lena's US visa, etc.).  Anyway, I didn't forget about you, so as promised, please find attached a ZIP file with a small sampling of the pictures we took while visiting Turkey.
We very much enjoyed the entire trip -- the places were interesting, the guides were excellent, the food was different from what we get at home and most enjoyable, and even the hotels themselves were unique and interesting!  We found all of the ancient ruins to be fascinating -- it is difficult to believe that someone built such magnificent structures so long ago until you are actually there with your hands on the very marble that was carved thousands of years ago.  I guess it goes without saying that the "Cotton Castle" of Pamukkale was a breathtaking sight, and the entire Cappadocia area is so absolutely unique that it would justify a trip to Turkey just by itself.  Our trip was first-rate in every respect, and we could not have enjoyed it more -- thank you very much for the services provided by your company, and especially for the extra effort your personally put in to ensure that our "honeymoon" was just perfect! Thanks,Clay

Dear Mr Bulent,
It has been more than a week since we returned to Malaysia.
We are indeed very thankful and happy for your arrangements for our holiday in Turkey.
Before we went to Turkey, we had never thought there is so much to see in Turkey but to our great astonishment Turkey has so much to offer! This holiday gave us a different outlook of Turkey altogether. The country is so full of history we think one will need at least 3 months to cover the history of various places in West Turkey. My children felt that there is so much to learn about the ancient civilisation in Turkey.  It is like they are walking through the 10 civilisations that passed Turkey when we visited the ancient cities of Pergamum, Ephesus, Antaly, Aphrodisias and Konya. The agoras, libraries, stadium, theatres, hippodromes and baths and also the caravanseri gave us the feeling that this country was once the craddle of great civilisations. Pamukkale with its steps formation of calcium pools is simply amazing.  We would not have thought it possible to touch the water in the open during winter until we dipped our feet into the thermal pool and found a sense of relief it gave us. The Pam Thermal Hotel served as a great experience for us. In the thermal pool we felt engulfed by the hot water and yet swimming in winter in the thermal pool is an experience of a lifetime. The great wonders of the landscape in the Province of Cappadocia is a totally different experience.  Even in winter the Balloon Ride unveiled much beauty of the land in Cappadocia.  It is so charming with the snow flakes in the sunlight, it is a ride of a lifetime for us. Yet after so much we have experienced in Turkey we still feel we have barely touched on what it can offer us. I would highly recommend our friends to visit Turkey with your company, if they are looking for a holiday of a lifetime! Once again thank you.Best wishes, Chee Beng, Phaik Choo Chan

Dear Bulent
Thank you for arranging the fantastic itinerary for our first trip to Turkey. The tours are well planned and customized to our needs and the hotels are located next to places of interests. The tour group is of a nice size (about 10 to 12) too. We enjoyed all the places of interest such as the visit to Aphrodias, the adventure walks in Cappodocia and the mausoleums in Konya. The tour guides are very experienced and the tours start on time. We have great services with the inter-city buses, the transfer where done without any glitches. As the saying goes, "I came, I saw and I enjoyed".
You are professional in your services and ensured that we have a great time in Turkey. We appreaciate your services during the pre-tour as well as the confirmation of the tours during the Eid holidays when most of us are not working. You have assured us with a handphone to keep in touch with you during our tours (which we did not use as we were having a great time). We will recommend you to relatives and friends about your services. Looking forward for future tours with you.
Send regards to Sheda, Bushe and the new baby as well as staff at Veni Vidi. We always remember YOU guys.

Dear Bulent,
Thank you for leading us on our adventure in Turkey. From the minute you met us at the airport I knew that we were in good hands. Your self-discipline, enthusiasm, love for the culture, organization and ability to meet us with firmness, insight, humor and goodwill, made the trip everything and more than we could have hoped for. For some it was tremendously enriching; for others, it was transformative. The group really became galvanized in the course of the 9 days. The trip itself was very well thought out, with the first part keeping us moving through all kinds of experiences. We are back in US now, and feel so sad to have had to leave Turkey. It was one of the most fantastic vacations we have ever been on. So much much better than doing a group type vacation. Everyone was so nice, coorperative, and proud of their country. And I see Why Now. I can honestly say, Turkey is on the top of our list of memorable destination's visited. Once again Bulent, thank you and your wonderful support staff for making our visit unforgettable. We will always remember this trip and not fail to praise you to our friends and acquaintances. We hope we can send some business your way. By the way, good luck with your new baby. We will be partying here on the 7th December :))) Timothy, Karen, Marcus, Weston, Kristen, Lance, Sophia Buford.

Dear Bulent,
I would like to personally thank you and your team in making my holiday in Turkey an excellent one. Me and my friends were very pleased with all the arrangements, the hotel and the tours that was prepared for us. We would like to thank you for the hotel recommendation in Kusadasi, the location was excellent, right next to the bazaar and we were facing the beautiful ocean view. Our driver that picked us up at Izmir airport - Omar was also an excellent driver and was in tune to our needs as tourist as he stopped along the way where there are an excellent scenic view to Kusadasi for us to take pictures. He even stopped at a fruit seller by the road side to buy us some oranges to taste out of his own pocket when we inquired about the fruits that was on sale. His hospitality really made us feel very welcome and at home. We also enjoyed our trip to Pamukkale and Ephesus and we find that the local tour guide, helpful and knowledgeable. We are all really happy with the services provided by your agency and we would not hesitate to recommend our friends and families from using your services in the future. Thanks and keep up the good work. Cheers, Shireen

An amazing experience… it was absolutely wonderful. The tour operator provided an excellent service with professional guides and representatives. Someone was always there to greet us and assist us at each leg of the tour. We never had to worry about a thing. They were even flexible enough to adjust the tour to suit our needs, take advantage of the weather, and rearrange some site visits when our Nile cruise ship got behind schedule. The holiday exceeded our expectations in many ways. We highly recommend booking it through Veni Vidi Travel if you are planning a holiday to Egypt. Adriana Lezcano Huncal.

Veni Vidi Travel and its staff is absolutely fantastic. Very professional and great people as well. We were amazed at how organized the trip was and at the same time how flexible it was. The reps in all of the cities, as well as the tour guides, went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and at ease in Turkey & Egypt. We felt safe and watched over every step of the trip which made the trip so much more pleasant. We felt personal attention all the way and felt like VIPs. We were able to do/see a lot and at the same time get a chance at the relaxation time. Our requests/needs were addressed right away and we felt like we were among our friends and family. The sights were unbelievable, but so were the people - warm, caring, friendly. Our personal tour guides were knowledgeable, spoke great English and were just wonderful people! We would use Veni Vidi Travel in a heartbeat again if we would plan another visit to Turkey & Egypt! And we truly hope to be able to do so again! We will also recommend it to our friends and family who are interested in the similar trip. The company definitely helped create an unforgettable and happy memory! THANK YOU, Veni Vidi Travel!!!
