Istanbul and Trabzon package, 7 nights: four in Istanbul with guided tours, three on the Black Sea with Uzungol lake, Sumela Monastery and a Trabzon city tour.
A nature package joining the history of Istanbul with the lush valleys of the Black Sea: four nights in Istanbul and three in Trabzon. In Istanbul the Bosphorus and the Old City are guided; on day five you fly to the Black Sea coast.
In Trabzon the misty lake and wooden mosque of Uzungöl, the cliff-carved Sumela Monastery and the rice pudding of Hamsiköy are the three main stops. Jeep rides to the highlands, ATVs and zipline can be added on request.
Cool air, green scenery and abundant water make this the most requested summer programme for Gulf families; domestic flights and all transfers are included.
