Hi Aykut, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for helping us plan the most perfect trip we've ever taken. Everything went very smoothly and our mission was accomplished. Our hotel in Athens was great and yes, we did dine on the rooftop our first evening there. We did the Acropolis tour the next day plus enjoyed the shopping areas in the evening. Ferry trip went fine (wish we could have seen more of the sites during the day)! Our apartment in Santorini was absolutely perfect! Everything about Santorini was fabulous - food, wine, people, sites, etc. The weather was spectacular. We really relaxed and enjoyed each other. Thank you for all of your assistance. We are hoping to return to Greece in a few years, but have already passed your name on to a few friends who are interested in a vacation to Greece. Again, thanks for making our 25th wedding anniversary PERFECT! Candy & Cliff Flower, London, UK

Dear Bulent,
A note to thank you and your staff for helping us have a wonderful introduction to Turkey.  We loved the country & you guys too!  We covered so much ground and all of it was so interesting.  You did so many nice things for us and we really appreciate all of them.
We are all catching up, so no pic’s yet.  We delivered Hilary to Barcelona, where she is adjusting to her new life there.  I will have my first Skype event with her soon today.
I plan to return at some point & will be in touch. All the best, Kathleen Kinka.

Our long awaited trip to Egypt was far better than we ever could have hoped for. We travel frequently, and with a five year old (who had her 6th birthday in Egypt) in tow can find the run of the mill tours taxing to say the least. Gateway were one of the most professional agents we have ever used. 'tailor made' was just that, their staff know their stuff, and we could not fault a single part of the trip. From the initial planning to the royal treatment from the moment we stepped of the plane till getting back on again. Thanks to everyone, we hope to see you all again soon. Wendy, Murray & Georgie Chambers.

Hi Seda,
My apologies for the delay in responding. We’ve both been busy trying to catch up with all that we missed at work while on the honeymoon. To answer your question, we had a great time. More important, the assistance you and your team provided in helping us re-schedule everything at the last minute due to my lost passport was exceptional. I’m not exaggerating when I say that you saved the day! If there is a testimonial section of the website or in your marketing materials let me know and I would be happy to include my thoughts. Thanks again, Jason Cuevas.

Name of your travel agency reflects what we experienced with our travel in Turkey. "We came we saw and we enjoyed". Thank you again for you hospitality. We will never forget this.

I will gladly recommend your services. I have given your e-mail address to Vic Fitzmaurice. He is a friend of mine and has to go to Turkey for a buisness trip in the near future. Regards.

Hi Bulent,
Thanks for organising our trip to Turkey- we had a great time and have been raving about Turkey and the service you provided. So many people have the opinion that Turkey isn't safe but we have been telling everyone that the people are great and it is as safe as anywhere we have traveled. Thanks again for your personal service, drinks and dinner- we will never forget Bulent. Greece and Egypt look good next year or 2010. Thanks again- hope all is well with all your girls. Keith and Jenni.

Sonali and I wanted to extend our sincere thanks to you again for setting up a wonderful honeymoon for us in Turkey!  Everything was great and worked out smoothly...the time in Oludeniz, the wonderful boat from Fethiye, the great tour of Istanbul, and most of all the personalized experience that you provided!
It was great meeting you and Seda in Istanbul!  We will send pictures to you soon. Regards, Raj

Dear Bulent,
First I apologize for not writing sooner. What a long trip I had from Istanbul to London to San Francisco-Seattle and home to Anchorage took me 32 hours with layovers to get home was very exhausting but it was all worth it. My daughters and i had a wonderful time, good hotels, very efficient in all the transportation, good tours, good people. We really had a marvelous time thanks to you, we had the right amount of tours, travel and free time. We want to come back and see Cappadocia, Troy, etc.. Also want to thank you for the wonderful wine.
My knee was better but had a setback did too much exercise but am getting a little better now. Hope this letter will reach you and your family in good health.
Again thank you for everything we have been telling our friends had a great time in your country, friendly people. We also tell acquaintances and friends if they ever go to Turkey will give them a name for a travel agent, who will really take care of you. Best Regards,
