I enjoyed our trip very much, very helpful guide and comfortable
bus and accommodation. I feel the Gallipoli experience was
enhanced by Sammys Tour and I will have no hesitation in
recommending your group to anyone who is considering similar
travels.
Thank you so much for an excellent, informative trip.

remember.

Dear Mehmet,
Just wanted to let you know that we had a great tour with Sammys
Travel and particularly want to commend our tour guide who was
Genghis. He was excellent, knowledgeable, funny and made our
tour even more enjoyable. We would definitely recommend Sammys
Travel for Anzac tours. Also we really enjoyed the lazy day at
the Thermal hotel.
Just wanted to let you know that we did enjoy the tour and hope
you will pass on to Genghis particularly how good we found him
as a guide.
Kind regards
Annalyse O’dea (Anzac Day Tours 2008)

Hi Mehmet,
I'm sorry it has taken me so long to
contact you. I just wanted to once again
thank you for all your help in trying to
track down my lost luggage
in airport
during the
Anzac Day tour that I attended. You and
your staff did an excellent job and I
appreciated all your efforts. I
thoroughly enjoyed the tour and will be
recommending Sammy's Travel to all my
friends who may wish to spend Anzac Day
in Gallipoli.
Thanks and Regards,

Congratulations Mehmet and Hasan
We were very lucky to have been part of
Sammy's 8 tour to Gallipoli this year
and we would like to thank all concerned
in making our tour a very happy memory
we will enjoy for the rest of our lives.
Our special thanks to our wonderful
guide Hasan. What a lovely young
man, he is a credit to his country. He
shared so much knowledge with us we
can't thank him enough for making our
tour very, very special.
Please look after him for us, he is an
asset to your company.
We have never been on a tour where
everyone mixed so well and we have all
been in contact, via email, since our
return to our homes on Saturday.
Congratulations Samyeli

Hi to all at Sammy’s Travel
I would just like to say that this was
the best holiday I have ever had and
that our tour group (Sammy’s 8) and tour
guide was the best group I have ever
been on.
I would like to thank everyone involved
for making this an unforgettable holiday
and I would always recommend Sammy’s
Travel to anyone wanting to do the ANZAC
tour.
Thanks for some of the best memories, I
will always treasure.

Hi Mehmet,
I would appreciate it if you would pass
this on to all the relevant people.
Clare and I would like to say a very big
thank you to everyone at Sammy's for
such an excellent trip. We would like
to make special mention to you and Hasan
who were helpful beyond anything we
could ask for and we are so grateful.
I have done several tours in my travels,
and this was by far the best. The
support provided before the tour and the
excellent help starting at the airport
and ongoing until we were back in London
was exceptional.
Your organisation skills are an asset to
the company, and Hasan's tour management
was brilliant.
I will be highly recommending you to
anyone else I know interested in Turkey
and I wish you all the best with all
future tours.
Once again, thank you so much and please
pass on my thanks to Sammy and the rest
of the team.
Kind regards,

Hi Mehmet,
I just wanted to let you know that our
Tour Guide was Levent and he was the
most amazing tour guide that we could
have asked for! Everyone on Bus 5
enjoyed themselves immensely and it was
mostly thanks to Levent.
We found him to be very knowledgeable,
humorous and very kind and provided us
with interesting facts about Turkey that
made our trip worthwhile. Because of
Levent we will definitely be
recommending Samyeli Travel to our
friends for next years ANZAC Day trip.
If you could please pass on our thanks
to him, we would be very grateful.
Kind Regards,
Katie,
Hi,
Thought I would give you feedback on the
6 day Gallipoli tour 2006 (bus 9) I
found out about the tour through
advertising in Gumtree and through
search engines
I was really pleased with the tour.
Things I was particularly impressed with
were: our tour guide Ahmet - he was
amazing! the timing of the Turkish Baths
upon returning from Gallipoli - they
were great also I really liked the
thermal resort we stayed at before we
went to Gallipoli - the drive was worth
it and the food was great I also really
enjoyed seeing the local art in the
village museum.
The dinner at the fish markets was also
good Things that could be improved on:
The bus rides are quite long, and it
might be nice to have a guitar on board
for a sing along to help pass the time
Was not too impressed with the showers
or water at the Istanbul hotel - Birbey?.
The water stopped and came out brown a
few times. That was a little gross and
scary. And the lights on the stairwell
weren't working properly
There was some confusion with our
transfer, even though we emailed our
flight times and receipt of these were
confirmed by the company. These had not
been recorded on the transfer log, but
our transfer was fine in the end. (Just
a small thing)
Otherwise very pleased with the tour,
the weather and all the people I met.
Will definitely recommend this
experience to friends. Thank you.
Ka kite,
Katie
Michelle Hall,
Hi Mehmet,
I wanted to take the time to write and
say what a fantastic holiday I had in
Turkey.
I can't tell you enough how wonderful
our guide and driver were. Sedat Kirkan
has such an amazing knowledge of Turkey
and it's history - there was no a
question he was unable to answer. He
always made a conscious effort to ensure
that we had the best time we possibly
could all throughout our holiday. Our
driver Tufan Igel put in some extremely
long hours and his driving was
outstanding. He was always very
professional and courteous. I truly hope
that I am lucky enough to have guides
and drivers of their calibre when I next
travel.
Thank you very much again. All the best
for the future.
Kylie Hall,
I thought that the tour package was of a
high standard I found that the tour
guide was very approachable and
knowledgeable of the tour of ANZAC
itself.
I found the Turkish explanation interesting for ANZAC as we only learn
of the all sides in our Schools. It was
nice to get a true feel for both sides
of the ANZAC Story.
I would recommend this tour to others
and will consider Samyeli Travel as
first option for tours next time I'm in
Turkey.
Thank you for all your hard work!!!
Lee Coghill,
Very informative & friendly guide,
deriver and derivers assistant. Thanks
for helping to make my ANZAC Day
experience unforgettable one.
Kerrie Macaulay,
Hi Mehmet,
I am happy to say I had a wonderful time
in Turkey and I was very pleased with
our tour. I will be recommending the
tour to friends and family.
Thanks for everything.
Paul Cazzuline,
Hello Mehmet,
I am just
responding to
give you
feedback on the
tour. Overall I
was very happy
with it. It was
well organised
and run. The
quality of the
hotels we stayed
at were very
good and the
level of
customer service
was of a high
standard.
Thanks

Fing,
Hi Mehmet,
The recent Anzac
Tour we did was
absolutely
fantastic. It
was the first
organised tour
we have ever
done and we
loved it.
One complaint -
we didn't have
enough time at
the Anzac Cove
Museum. There
were a lot of
diary entries
and letters we
would have loved
to have read,
but didn't have
time. Barely had
time to take
some pics.
Our only
complaint.
The rest was
wonderful. Our
guide Chengis
(not spelt right,
but pronounced
Jengis) was so
caring,
informative ....
just sensational.
Loved it and
will definitely recommend you to
others.
Jo-Anne
Rasmussen,
Hi Mehmet,
I had the most
amazing time in
Turkey and the
ceremony was
beyond all my
expectations.
The tour was
excellently
organised and
everything was
extremely
enjoyable. Thank
you for making
my Gallipoli
experience
something I will
remember forever.
Cheers
Kingsley
Hutcherson,
G'day Mehmet,
I was on the 4
day tour with
Adam Pope. We
enjoyed the trip
very much,
learnt a lot
more than what
we thought we
knew. Our guide
was great.
Travelling to
Anzac Cove the
day before the
ceremony was a
great move &
staying at the
Resort as well,
I will
definitely be
recommending
Sammys to
my Aussie mates
who wish to
travel to Anzac
Cove in the
future.
Many Thanks
Lauren Shea,
Just wanted to
give you a huge
thank-you for
the anzac tour,
we had a great
time and will
never forget
your lovely
country. I hope
you enjoyed it
too!
Shirley and Helen Ballinger,

Hi from Australia,
Gday Sammy,
thanks for such a wonderful trip thru Turkey and to Anzac day. Cengis did a great job and all on the tour had a great time. Was told that you will be putting some photo's on your website which we can see and a login area for Samyeli Travellers to view some more. Look forward to hearing from you and finding out what we need to do to see them.
All the best for next Anzac day,
Stuart and Wazza
