A Timeless Tour Through Turkey

A Timeless Tour Through Turkey

Sea and sun lover’s paradise

Immersed in history and surrounded by soaring mountains, sparkling beaches, valleys, and volcanoes, Turkey encapsulates just about everything you could ever desire in a vacation destination. The bridge between Europe and Asia, Turkey is an incredibly diverse country, rich in culture and trade.

The unique Mediterranean climate allows for almost six months of summer in Southern parts of the country...so that counts as six months of vacation, right? With plenty to see, do, and explore, we definitely wish we had six months to spend in Turkey. 

The Turkish peninsula is surrounded by four breathtaking seas: the Mediterranean to the south, the Aegean to the west, the Sea of Marmara between the European and Asian landmasses, and the Black Sea to the north. There are plenty of  jaw-dropping luxury resorts scattered along the coast where you can soak up the Turkish sun. Or if staying in boutique hotels nestled in the caves of breathtaking Cappadocia, or a revolving hotel in Antalya is more your style, there are numerous unique spots for you to explore as well. 

Wander around the Greco-Roman world of Ephesus (we recommend getting a tour guide to take you around the incredible site), and carve out a whole day to explore this ancient city if you can.

From the Pontus and the Taurus Mountains in the Eastern Highlands to the sun-soaked beaches on the Aegean coast, Turkey’s landscape and historic-yet-vibrant cities will amaze you over and over again.

Love to drive? A road trip through central Norway should definitely be on your bucket list. 🇳🇴 One of the best ways to pull it off is through 62nord: The company’s Drive the Fjords signature adventure will put you behind the wheel of an electric Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo on the legendary Atlantic Ocean Road (pictured here) and the winding Trollstigen as you head from Ålesund to the Øye Valley.

As if we needed an excuse to book a getaway to France’s wine country. This summer, three new openings in the region are calling us back for more vin. Here’s the scoop. 👇🏼

🍷 chateaulacommaraine, a reimagined 12th-century castle set in the heart of an ancient vineyard, is ushering in a new level of hospitality as Burgundy’s first true five-star resort.

🍷 chateaudeciteauxbourgogne from the fontenillecollection will offer a fresh way to explore the storied vineyards on Burgundy’s famed Côte d’Or when it opens this summer.

🍷 relaisdamboise will bring a needed dose of luxury to the charming village of Amboise in the Loire Valley when it opens in June.

Would you go on a quietcation? One of this year’s biggest travel trends has us seeking out silence—like the kind you’ll find if you’re in Bali on March 19th for Nyepi. For 24 hours, the island goes quiet in celebration of the Hindu New Year, giving residents and guests space to cleanse negative energy, reflect, and welcome in new beginnings.
