“Cooking with Lynne” returns to Turkey in 2014! Travel with Lynne MacMillan for an all inclusive holiday. This is a wonderful opportunity to visit Turkey and experience not only the culture but the fine cuisine of Turkish food, with cooking lessons by Lynne thrown in.

The journey begins in Istanbul staying in the Old City Sultanhamet. Our holiday is within walking distance of Topkapi Palace, the famed Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, plus the amazing ancient Roman Cistern. We will visit the Grand Bazaar and the Spice Markets. We will also “do” Istanbul by night with dinner and a combined belly-dancing/local folk dancing show.

We will then travel by air too Dalaman and from there by coach to the beautiful town of Kas. In Kas we will be staying in a luxury villa on the Peninsula with panoramic views of the Mediterranean and the Greek island of Meis [Meis being the Turkish name for the Greek island of Kastellorizo]. From Kas we will do many day trips to local markets and visit the Lycian sites of Xanthos, ,Patara, Arykanda and Myra to name a few. We will have a day trip to Fethiye and another day trip to the island of Kastellorizio. When we are not cooking at the villa we will be dining out at some of the local restaurants. Turkish cuisine is considered one of the top three cuisines.

This trip will only take a small group of ten. This is an all inclusive trip of 4 nights in Istanbul, 14 nights in Kas, all meals and excursions plus airfare from Sydney to Istanbul, plus internal flight to Dalaman. Total price approximately $5000.
