Turkey-touring guides

Hi Nancy,
The guide that Rick uses in Turkey (or at least Istanbul) is srmtravel. His email address for inquiries is [email protected]. I am going to be in Istanbul in May 2009 and made an inquiry with him about a tour. We decided that though he must be fantastic his prices are too high for us. After more investigating of other tour companies we are going with Guides of Istanbul (email: guidesofistanbul). This company was written up in a recent wedding planner magazine (the name and referance is listed on his website)and he was more flexible with our needs as far as the schedule of when we will be in port. Oh, I forgot, he also does tours of Ephesus, Izmir and Kusadasi. I hope this information will help you.

Under Travel Links, links to 2 of Rick's former Turkey guides are included. You are probably thinking of Lale, which is the srmtravel link. I've talked to people who've taken her post-Rick Steves tours and they sounded very pleased.
