Reviews
A long but AMAZING trip. We had a great time booking the Bilecik and Bursa package with linkturkey in January and thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The places our tour guide took us in Bileceik had great opportunities to take pictures, buy lots of souvenirs, and even dress up as an Alp (soldier). For this interactive experience alone, I would 1000/10 recommend this trip to everyone. We also got to see the beautiful views from the clocktower.

Being a die-hard fan of Ertugrhul Gazi and the beginning of the Ottoman Legacy, I all but rushed to book this one. And I was not let down. This tour had us exploring the old part of Bilecik and the tombs of all the figures I wanted to see. It was a truly incredible experience. Book this one if the drama inspired you too!
Review Submitted 16 February 2024
I booked the Ertugrul Ghazi tour with linktturkey as a last resort and I was very much surprised by how smoothly everything went. I still owe their team a great deal because the day I made my request, they tried their best to get me the sonnet dates so that I could leave for the trip ASAP. It is among the best memories I have. I will never forget how incredible it was. I met two incredible, helpful, and kind people as my tour guide and private van driver. Everything was booked and scheduled, which allowed smooth and seamless tours of the sites and landmarks. The hotel was incredible and the shakshuka I ordered was phenomenal. Highly highly recommend it.
