This 12-day (11-night) Turkey circuit in Spanish is the most complete of our routes: you cover Istanbul, Cappadocia, Ephesus and Pamukkale with domestic flights included (Istanbul–Cappadocia–Izmir–Istanbul), which saves you hours on the road and gives you more time at each destination. You travel with a private Spanish-speaking guide and a local operator in Turkey (TÜRSAB licence A-9759), with a transparent price and no hidden fees from 2,050 USD per person and guaranteed daily departures throughout 2026.
<h2>Why this is the most complete 12-day Turkey circuit</h2>
If you want to see Turkey without rushing and without sacrificing destinations, this is our top-of-the-range route: 12 days, 11 nights and domestic flights included. Unlike the classic 10-day circuit, here you gain extra days —3 nights in Cappadocia, 3 in Kuşadası— to calmly explore places few travellers see, such as the Ihlara Valley, the Selime Monastery or ancient Laodicea. The internal flights replace the long road journeys. As a local operator based in Istanbul (TÜRSAB A-9759), you deal directly with the team that leads your trip, and your private Spanish-speaking guide adjusts the pace to your group.
<h2>Day-by-day itinerary: 12 days from Istanbul to Pamukkale with internal flights</h2>
<ul>
<li>Day 1 — Arrival in Istanbul: reception, private transfer to the hotel and free time.</li>
<li>Day 2 — The Classic, jewels of Istanbul: Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, the Hippodrome, Topkapı (closed on Tuesdays) and the Grand Bazaar.</li>
<li>Day 3 — Bosphorus and authentic Istanbul: a Bosphorus cruise, Fener and Balat, the Spice Bazaar, Süleymaniye and Karaköy.</li>
<li>Day 4 — Flight to Cappadocia and Red Tour: a domestic flight, Uçhisar, the Göreme Museum, the Love Valley, Avanos, Devrent and Paşabağ.</li>
<li>Day 5 — Green Tour: the Göreme panorama, the Kaymaklı underground city, the Ihlara Valley, the Selime Monastery and the Pigeon Valley.</li>
<li>Day 6 — Free day in Cappadocia: time to yourself; an ideal morning for the balloon.</li>
<li>Day 7 — Flight to Izmir and Ephesus: a domestic flight and a visit to Ephesus: the Library of Celsus, the Terrace Houses, the Great Theatre and the House of the Virgin Mary.</li>
<li>Day 8 — Free day in Kuşadası: rest on the Aegean coast.</li>
<li>Day 9 — Free day in Kuşadası: a second free day; optional cooking class.</li>

<li>Day 12 — End of services: farewell and transfer to the airport.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Domestic flights included: why they change your trip</h2>
The key difference of this 12-day circuit are the domestic flights included in the price: Istanbul–Cappadocia, Cappadocia–Izmir (Ephesus) and the return Izmir–Istanbul. Instead of spending whole days on the road between regions, you arrive in a couple of hours and spend that time on what matters. This makes the route the most comfortable and complete option for covering Turkey's four jewels without exhausting yourself. The flight times are coordinated after booking and the airport-hotel transfers are also included.
<h2>The four jewels and the extra corners only this circuit covers</h2>
This Turkey trip in Spanish concentrates the four must-see destinations and, thanks to its additional days, adds corners that shorter routes skip. Istanbul joins two continents; Cappadocia, with three nights, gives time for the full Red Tour and Green Tour —Ihlara, Selime, Kaymaklı—; Ephesus unfolds the Library of Celsus, the Terrace Houses and the House of the Virgin Mary; and Pamukkale closes with its terraces, Hierapolis and the less-visited Laodicea.
<h2>12-day circuit price and total transparency</h2>
The price of this 12-day circuit is 2,050 USD per person, with the domestic flights already included. We tell you in writing what the price covers and what is left out, with no surprise charges. The only extras are the optionals you decide on (the balloon flight, the Turkish Night, the cooking class or the Cleopatra Pool) and personal expenses. No "pay on arrival" that we have not told you about beforehand.

Excelente servicio

Hermoso recorrido, me encantó cada minuto. La Cisterna Basílica parece de película. Tip de mujer práctica: lleven pañuelo para la mezquita y billetes pequeños para el baño público del bazar.
