Arya Tailor-made special interest tours

SPECIAL TOURS FOR DRAWERS, PAINTERS, PHOTOGRAPHERS

Sights like the extraordinary silhouette of Istanbul or the amazing natural formations in Cappadocia invite the perceptive onlooker to capture those visions in some form such as drawing, painting or photography.

However the pace of normal tours are designed to cover a lot of ground in as short a time as possible not allowing such leisurely artistic endeavors. By a slower rhythm and lengthened stops at places of interest for your party we hope to offer you a more flexible program and the opportunity to record what you see in whichever technique you choose.

Below is a tour that maybe of interest.
