Things to do in Turkey

• Hiking the Lycian Way – a 25-day way-marked footpath around the coast of Lycia in southern Turkey, from Fethiye to Antalya – and enjoy the challenge and beauty of this untouched ancient hiking trail.
• Explore the incredible diversity of Istanbul neighborhoods.
• Experience the peaceful quiet of Cappadocia from hot air balloon heights or get a little dirty on a quad bike adventure through the jagged landscape.
• Definitely do a boat charter in Kas to see Turkey’s Mediterranean Coast! I took a gloriously relaxing cruise around the Mediterranean aboard the Selin 3.
• Go underground and explore the otherworldly Basilica Cistern in Istanbul.
• Experience an entirely new level of clean at a Turkish bath hamam.
• Attend a mesmerizing Turkish Whirling Dervish religious ceremony.

Hotels in Turkey :

• The strangest place I have ever stayed on my travels was in Istanbul.
• My Istanbul apartment in Galata had me feeling like a visitor instead of a tourist.

Turkey Food :

• Wander the Turkish markets and get the insight on traditional Turkish Food on a Context market tour in Istanbul.
• I did a little grocery shopping  in Istanbul Markets in Tarlabasi on the “wrong side of town.”
• Partake in a delicious exploration of these unique Turkish desserts that push your limits and get you to look at dessert in a new way!
