    My wife and I recently spent 5 weeks in Europe for our 30th anniversary in May. Turkey was beautiful and the people were great! We definitely want to go back.

    I just finished a two week tour in Turkey, didn't really know what to expect as it was a new place for me but WHAT A COUNTRY. I will be returning in a heart beat. Friendly people, amazing food, cheap for Aussies, rich in culture and history, beautiful landscape and mountains and beaches and I did not feel once that my safety was comprimised but this is not a concern that I even had before going. Its a shame that some people give this country such stereotypes. I will be back for more next year and I can't wait!

      One of the perhaps, but Greece and Italy are absolutely one of the most incredible and breathtaking countries in the world, with amazing architectures, the most bluest and incredible beaches, incredibly gorgeous landscapes, and history.
      Don't get me wrong. I like Turkey a lot! Just the other 2 countries are very hard to beat. They have everything

      Actually its depends on the ppl and all the Mediterranean countries mostly same beach quality and if we talk historicly turkey have really good history like roman,ottoman and greek empire was part of the turkey and check göbeklitepe.i think we dont need to talk about food culture for turkey one the of best in the world.Basicly i want to say its not hard to beat just research more.and ofc italy and greece amazing too.

    I went to Ephesus and disembarked at Kusadasi, from our cruise ship. Kusadasi was a very clean and modern city. The tour operators were very organized, unlike the tours we took in Greece.
    A notable part of our experience with the Ephesus tour was the abundance of feral cats amongst the ancient ruins. Our feline companions made the tour more memorable!

    So many countries that are "unsafe" to travel to are absolutely stunning. Afghanistan for example, or huge parts of the middle east in general, at least from the viewpoint of a solo female traveller.
    I wouldn't personally count turkey as unsafe, it's a very popluar tourist destination for europeans :)
    Stunning video as always, Laura!

    Am I the only one to spot that your earrings match the crescent on the Turkish flag? Nice touch or coincidence? I visited Ephesus (from a cruise ship) in 2014. Mind blowing to think about the civilisations that lived there back in the day, just as we live in our towns and cities.

      Turkish and Italian foods are the tops. Watch other travel Turkey food videos to get an idea what you want to eat. Turks migrated from the Altai mountains near China about 1000 years ago. We belong to the Turkic peoples which span most of the ex soviet countries and even Hungary. Many empires including Seljuk then Ottoman Empire. Turks are the nicest people especially to visitors, men are always hot headed. Turks are very patriotic, you'll see Turkish flag any where you look. Some basic information for you from a Turk. Oh yes we drink the most tea in the world, like triple of UK. You get offered tea at random locations and bottled water if its hot.
      1 Lira these days is pretty bad about 6 USD so you can do good shopping too.
