We offer an unforgettable journey for guests who wish to experience the unique blend of history, culture and nature. This special route starting from Istanbul provides the opportunity to discover the most exceptional stops of Southeastern Anatolia, extending from Adana to Gaziantep, from Şanlıurfa to Mardin, and from Diyarbakır to Mount Nemrut. Starting with visits to Sabancı Central Mosque and Stone Bridge in Adana, the tour offers a mystical atmosphere on the calm waters of the Euphrates River through a boat trip in Halfeti. While feeling the spiritual essence of Balıklıgöl and Aynzeliha Lake in Şanlıurfa, interested guests can partake in a traditional 'sıra gecesi' filled with local melodies for an unforgettable evening. Then, the millennia-old mystery of Göbeklitepe, the conical-roofed houses of Harran, and the stone streets of Mardin take you on a journey through time. Throughout the tour, guided visits to significant stops such as Dara Ancient City, Midyat Guesthouse, Hasankeyf, and Diyarbakır Grand Mosque allow you to become closely acquainted with the deep-rooted culture of Mesopotamia. Watching the sunrise at Mount Nemrut is engraved in memory as one of the most enchanting moments of this tour. At the final stop, Gaziantep, visits to Zeugma Mosaic Museum, Copper Bazaar, and historic Tahmis Coffee House integrate the tour with culture and gastronomy. Featuring comfortable hotels, professional guidance, and the authentic atmosphere of the region, this program stands out as the most enjoyable and safe way to explore Southeastern Anatolia.
