Custom Private Tours in Sanliurfa host to the Prophets City Pilgrimage and visit the site where it is said the Prophet Abraham was born. The city guided tours are full of history, culture and magnificent ruins like the great Göbeklitepe and Harran.
Even though Sanliurfa (Urfa) is known as a pilgrimage town, there are lovely sites to visit like the fish ponds and the Grand Bazaar. Watch as the cloaked local women hustle through the bazaar while the men in traditional Arabic clothing are playing O.K. (backgammon) and swilling sweet tea.
The spices and food stalls unique to the southeast region of Turkey are incredible here so try not to leave the area without going to a bazaar. They sell everything at the Urfa Bazaar like sheepskin, handmade shoes, clothing, and if you are lucky some good fake bags or watches.
Take a few days to delve deeper into Anatolia with a tour to witness the distinctive Sanliurfa and Gobekli Tepe then go to see the extraordinary statues upon Mount Nemrut.
