Frequently Asked Questions
Can I add customized experiences like a welcome mixer, cultural immersion activities, wellness experiences, and a farewell gathering to the tour itinerary?
As this package is combined with the 3 Nights Iconic Aegean Cruise with Celestyal, unfortunately it is not possible to modify the itinerary. The tours are generally over around 4:00–4:30 p.m., so after the tours you will have free time. You may also add extra activities during your free time, except on flight days. In Cappadocia, there are several optional activities you may enjoy, such as: ATV (Quad Bike) Safari, Hot Air Balloon Flight at Sunrise, Horseback Riding, Turkish Night Show & Dinner.
How much is it to upgrade to Gold package and Balcony cabin for the cruise?
Gold package and balcony cabin upgrade price is 887 USD per person ;1774 USD in total for double room Balcony cabin depends on the availability of the cruise. As October is a high season , it may be fully booked.
Could our itinerary be changed so we could just fly home on day 10 out of Izmir? We have no need to return to Istanbul so it seems like it would be easier to leave from there if possible. Would there be a price savings with the less flight and hotel night?
Can you tell me if an upgrade to a balcony room is available for the cruise? Would I know this before I book or do I just have to book and then wait and see? Do you know pricing information for it?
We like this tour but really want a small boat, not a big ship. Can you offer something like that? How big is this shop?
This tour operates with the Celestyal Discovery cruise, which is a classic cruise ship. Unfortunately, it is not possible to arrange this tour with a smaller vessel. Your current reservation includes an inside cabin, but outside cabins and outside cabins with balcony are available with an additional cost.

How many people are on the tour? Is it possible to fly back to Athens instead of flying back to Istanbul? I am enquiring for 3 adults, 2 to one room and on single is that an issue and is there a extra cost for the single supplement?
