Our Experience We’ve been around since 1997 and so we know the ropes and all the small things that help to make a tour great. When you book with us you have the peace of mind of knowing that we operate our own group tours - we hire our own guides and operate using our own vehicles and so we control our tour quality. We know every town we stop in like the back of our hand. This means we know the best places to stay, the best places to eat, and the best places to go in your free time.

Quality and Value for Money At every step of the way we aim to offer you great value for money. We have worked hard to get all of the ingredients that make up a great tour just right so that you have the best possible experience. All year round we check the quality of our suppliers, and we take a continuous improvement approach to all that we do, and constantly re ne our itineraries and suppliers based on guest feedback. 22

Small Groups We believe that you can’t really get to know a country if you are travelling in a really large group, and so our groups (with the exception of ANZAC Day tours) have a maximum size of 20 people. This gives you more exibility when travelling, and more chances to learn more about local culture and traditions.

Guaranteed departures Our tours are guaranteed to depart, this means that they will depart regardless of how many people are booked. We don’t cancel after you have booked and leave you with non-refundable ight tickets! We make your dreams come true...

You imagined it, daydreamed about it, envisioned it - we make it happen... Our team From our tour guides to our drivers and operation staff, we believe a good team is the key to a great tour. We employ a mix of staff who all love to travel, and who have broad experience across all aspects of the travel industry. We also invest in continuously developing our people. We have a large team on the ground to support our operations. The success of Fez is a direct result of the loyalty and dedication that our team has demonstrated over the years.

Our guides We know that your tour guide is the difference between a good and a great trip, and so we carefully select our guides for their passion and knowledge and continually provide them with professional develop- ment. All of our guides have studied subjects such as archaeology, history and mythology at university and are passionate about showing their country to visitors

Our vehicles Unlike many tour operators, the bulk of our tours are operated using our own eet of vehicles. This is because safety is important to us and so we prefer to directly manage the maintenance of our vehicles and the training of our drivers. Our eet is modern, with our oldest vehicle being just 2 years old. If your group is up to 12 people, your vehicle is most likely to be a comfortable mini-bus such as a Mercedes Sprinter. For groups larger than this we move to a full size coach so there is plenty of room for you to spread out and enjoy your trip.

Our hotels We have a vast range of hotels that have been carefully handpicked by our team, and we review these all year round to ensure they continue to provide our guests with a comfortable stay. While the bulk of our range are moderate 4 star hotels or an equivalent standard we always try to strike the perfect balance between location, comfort and character. In tours we emphasise more on character and traditional style hotels, and wherever possible we prefer to support family-run businesses. TURKEY Emperors, poets, traders, warriors, religious pilgrims, explorers - over the centuries, all have found themselves drawn to the diverse, beautiful land now known as Turkey. Even today, Turkey ranks among the top travel destinations in the world, thanks to such attractions as stylish Istanbul, which has one of the globe's youngest populations, the chic beach towns along the Aegean and Mediterranean coasts, the wealth of world - class historic sites and ruins, and the unforgettable landscapes of spots like Cappadocia. Add to that the incredible cuisine, the famous bazaars and artisan trades, and the decadent hamam spa traditions, and it's clear that Turkey travel offers something for everyone.

Things Not to Miss in Turkey • Hagia Sophia - this great church of Constantinople was considered to be the greatest house of worship in both Christian and Muslim worlds. • Blue Mosque - is a mosque of extraordinary beauty, architecture and it’s 6 minarets, • Topkapi Palace Museum - the main administrative centre of the Ottoman Empire. It is the largest and the oldest palace that survived. • Grand Bazaar - in Istanbul really justifies its name. It’s one of the largest covered markets in the world. • Cappadocia & hot air balloon ride - there are hundreds of hot air balloons ying over Cappadocia each morning. You’ll have the best view, and the most amazing photos. • Underground city - built in the Bronze Age for safety and religious reasons, and were used mostly in the Byzantine period. There are many churches, dungeons, storage rooms, winemaking rooms and even heavily fortified castles underground. • Göreme Open Air Museum - was the monastic settle- ment for some 20 monks during the Byzantine period. • Ephesus - is one of the best preserved and the biggest ancient cities in the world. • The Temple of Artemis - one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. • Antalya - offers to its visitors beautiful art, historic sites, extraordinary beaches, hotels and resorts, and a modern nightlife. • White cliffs of Pamukkale - is a nature-made masterpiece located in the Aegean Region of Turkey. It is believed that even Cleopatra swam in these pools. • Hierapolis - as a big city, founded in the 2nd century BC, Hierapolis has a very well preserved Roman theatre. • Troy - a war that lasted 10 years was fought for a woman - Helen of Troy, the most beautiful woman in the world. It all started when Paris of Troy took Helen from her husband Menelaus, the king of Sparta. The Trojans and Greek heroes fought in this war.

When To Visit Turkey The regions bordering the Mediterranean and Aegean Seas are cool and wet in the winter, with dry and sunny days in the summer. The mountain regions see snow in the winter, making them perfect for winter sports enthusiasts, while Istanbul can be visited all year round. Spring, summer and autumn are best to take advantage of Istanbul's outdoor cafes, Bosphorus cruises, and city parks. 10 FEZ TRAVEL > TURKEY

With spectacular beaches and majestic scenery, the relics of four millennia of ancient culture and some of Europe’s best party spots, those who travel to Greece are certain to experience a once in a lifetime vacation.

Things Not to Miss in Greece • Athens – many ancient structures still stand in the capital city – the Acropolis and the Parthenon just two of the must-see UNESCO relics. • Metéora Monasteries – one of the world’s most stunning ecclesiastical sites. • Hiking the home of the ancient Gods, Mount Olympus • The islands – from the parties of Mykonos to the stunning sunsets of Santorini, hopping around the Greek Islands is something every traveler should experience at least once. • Delphi – Greece’s most sacred sites where the oracle once answered the questions in the temple of Apollo

When to Go to Greece The autumn and spring are the best time to visit Greece when neither the temperature nor the crowds are too overwhelming. However, those looking to party on the islands should consider a July or August vacation – the most popular time of year to visit and also the most fun. Some of the tourist attractions go on hiatus during the winter months, so traveling between November and March isn’t advised for culture seekers. 60 FEZ TRAVEL > GREECE

But with a wealth of history, cultural and culinary treasures and great nightlife, it won’t be long before the region becomes the next travel hotspot.

Things Not to Miss in Balkans • Dubrovnik - the famous walled city of Dubrovnik is one of the most visited in the Balkans. Visitors can explore the white marble streets and walk along the imposing ramparts. • Sarajevo - home to one of the prettiest pedestrian old towns in the Balkans. • Mostar - Mostar’s iconic Old Bridge is the most famous in the Balkans. • Kotor - the walled city of Kotor is often referred to as the 'new' Dubrovnik. Its narrow streets and pretty plazas rival those of its northern neighbour, and refreshingly lack the heaving tourist crowds. • Budva - not far from Kotor, Budva is another walled city that boasts a pretty Old Town, sandy beaches and great nightlife. Bars ll the cobbled streets and line the water- front outside of the historic city walls, and Mogren Beach and other sandy strips draw visitors from all over Europe during the warmer months. • Tirana - is one of the most off-the-beaten-path capitals in Europe, but the city’s vibrant cafe culture and funky public art make it worth a visit. • Ohrid - the town of Ohrid is a gem in the Balkans. Set beside a beautiful lake, its narrow, winding streets open up to reveal gems like a Roman amphitheatre, castle fortress, and church with 11th-century frescoes. • Belgrade - may be best known for its great nightlife, but the city has a wealth of historic treasures and cultural attractions, too. • Krka Natiaonal park and waterfalls - magni cent waterfalls, including the famous Skradinski Buk falls which are one of Croatia’s most famous sights. • Tunnel Museum - The most visceral of Sarajevo's many 1990s war-experience 'attractions', this unmissable museum's centrepiece and raison d'être is a short section of the 1m wide, 1.6m high hand-dug tunnel under the airport runway which acted as the city's lifeline to the outside world during the 1992–95 siege, when Sarajevo was virtually surrounded by Serb forces. • Athens – many ancient structures still stand in the capital city – the Acropolis and the Parthenon just two of the must-see UNESCO relics. • Metéora Monasteries – one of the world’s most stun- ning ecclesiastical sites. • Delphi – Greece’s most sacred sites where the oracle once answered the questions in the temple of Apollo When to Go to Balkans The peak summer months of July and August attract the most visitors with blissfully hot days and ideal water temperatures for swimming. May and September are great months to visit with a pleasant climate and sunny skies, though fewer crowds. The seas are still relatively warm so swimming is still an option. Winters are much cooler and wetter though still pleasant enough. 68 FEZ TRAVEL > BALKANS

Desert fortresses rise out of the sands of the Sahara. Sapphire oceans caress white sandy beaches. The purple peaks of the Atlas Mountains glitter with snow. Visit Morocco to see all of these sights and more. Behind every city wall is an adventure in art, architecture and cuisine. The winding alleyways of the Medina give way to the bustling souks, tent after tent lled with brightly colored silks and baskets of spices. At the hammam, you can indulge in massages perfumed with scented oils and salt scrubs. Geographically, Morocco is made up of four different areas: the Sahara desert, full of Berber towns and oases; the Atlas and Rif Mountains, perfect for hikers; the plains which are home to the imperial cities of Marrakech and Fez; and nally the sandy coastlines of the and the Atlantic Ocean, graced by small beach towns and the cities of Rabat and Casablanca. Endless possibili- ties await the adventurous traveler.

Things Not to Miss in Morocco • Sun tanning and windsurfing in Essaouira • Shopping the souk in the medieval city of Fez • Visiting a hamam in Marrakech • Ride a camel on the golden sand dunes of Erg Chebbi • Stroll along the blue walls of Chefchaouen

When to Go to Morocco Due to the varied geography, the best time to travel Moroc- co depends greatly on where you are going. In general, spring (April and May) is the best weather across Morocco. In the Saharan region and to a lesser extent the plains cities-midsummer should be avoided. However, the hottest months are lovely for a visit to the coastal cities, like Essaouira and Rabat. Winter months are very cold in the mountains, which can be hard since many hotels don’t have heating. Desert days are warm and clear during the summer, but temperatures at night can plummet. It is also important to consider Islamic holidays when you travel to Morocco. The month of Ramadan involves strict fasting during the day, which can be “at present” an issue for transportation, but the parties at night can make up for the subdued days. 76 FEZ TRAVEL > MOROCCO

ROOM AUD 1165 before reaching our accommodation in Ouarzazate. This evening you'll have dinner at the hotel. Overnight Ouarzazate (B, D) A complicated but fascinating country with some of the most enduring historical monuments on Earth, Egypt stands as an unforgettable travel destination. It’s had to deal with its fair share of turmoil in recent times, but this North African nation remains proud, welcoming and accessible. And with treasures as timeless as the temples and pyramids of the Nile to shout about, it’s not somewhere that’s going to slip from public consciousness any time soon. A trip here still very much has the potential to thrill. Things Not to Miss in Egypt • Discover the Valley of the Kings - the Valley of the Kings, in the Theban Hills, is where the mummi ed remains of many Egyptian pharaohs were interred. Although stripped of their contents centuries ago, the tombs still display fantastic wall paintings depicting the lives of the pharaohs. The most famous tomb is that of Tutankhamun, discovered in pristine condition by Howard Carter in 1922. • Dive the Red Sea - justly deserves its worldwide reputation for underwater adventure. Teeming with colourful marine life, the crystalline waters are landscaped with coral and dramatic drop-offs. • Experience Islamic Cairo - It’s bustling and busy in ancient Islamic Cairo, but the crowds thin out along the serene street of Al-Muezz Al-Din, with spot lit mosques and mausoleums lining the pedestrianised cobbled street. A local will, doubtless, offer to take you up a minaret; ascend the one at Al - Azhar Mosque – home to the world’s oldest university – for panoramic views. • Explore the temples at Luxor - straddling the Nile, Luxor is the site of the ancient city of Thebes. On the east bank lies the spectacular Temple of Karnak featuring epic statues, obelisks and lotus-columned halls. In the city centre is Luxor Temple, spectac- ular when lit up at night. Make the most of the experience by taking a gods-eye view in a hot-air balloon. • Get lost in Khan-el Khalili bazaar - take a trip to Cairo's famous labyrinthine, medieval Khan-el Khalili bazaar, where haggling for spices, copper, perfume and trinkets has been re ned into an art form. Don't miss Fishawi's teahouse; in business for over 200 years, it is the ultimate place to people watch. • Go on pilgrimage to Mount Sinai - for centuries, Christian pilgrims have made the journey to Mount Sinai to witness the sunrise over the desert landscape. The three-hour trek is breath- taking, but if it sounds too ambitious, stay overnight at the UNESCO-listed 6th-century Saint Catherine’s Monastery, hire a EGYPT camel and walk down in leisure. • Kick back in Aswan - the former frontier town of Aswan is a popular stopping-point for cruise liners, and the feluccas drifting along the Nile at sunset is one of Egypt’s enduring sights. Attractions include Elephantine Island and Elnabatat’s Island (the ‘island of plants’), upon which Lord Kitchener built a beautiful botanical garden in the 1890s that’s still open to visitors today. • Marvel at the Pyramids of Giza - Egypt’s main tourist attraction has long been the Giza Necropolis on the edge of Cairo. One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Great Pyramid dates back to around 2500BC. Wander the site to truly understand the enormity of the building task, or take in the sights by horse or camel, not forgetting to visit the Great Sphinx nearby. • Take to the Nile - ply the river between Luxor and Aswan for that quintessential Nile experience. Egrets ock to the water's edge and Egypt's ancient archaeological wonders, including the temple of Kom Ombo, unfold like a storybook along the bank. Lasting between three and ve days, take a traditional white-sailed felucca, or splash out on a dahabiya, a luxury furnished wooden barge. When To Visit Egypt Egypt is a huge country with plenty of variety in its climate; when it’s chilly and wet in Alexandria, it can be ravishingly hot in Aswan. The best time to visit most sights, including the pyramids and the Valley of the Kings, or diving in the Red Sea, is from February to April and October to November. During these months the heat reminds you that it's the ‘Land of the Sun', but not too hot to be enjoyable. At this time, the skies and sea are a perfect blue. The downside is that these are the most popular times of the year for visitors. In April, the hot, dusty khamsin wind blows from the Sahara, making touring of sights potentially troublesome; during an intense sand storm, vision may be reduced to a few meters. During the hot, dry summers (June-August) there’s always the risk of dehydration and heat exhaustion, which might con ne visitors indoors during the early afternoon. Winters (November-February) are usually mild and often overcast, leaving the desert and its ancient monuments looking lacklustre. Rainfall is negligible except on the coast. JORDAN Jordan is a country of mountains, beaches, castles and ancient churches, with an urbane people and a rich culture. It is safe, comfortable and welcoming – and by far the region’s most rewarding destination. Jordan covers a multitude of scenes, from the dramatic red sands and towering cliffs of the far south to the vast stony plains of volcanic basalt in the east. The northern hills, rich with olive trees, teeter over the rift of the Jordan Valley, which in turn runs down to the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth. The centre of the country is carpeted with tranquil elds of wheat, cut through by expansive canyons and bordered by arid, craggy mountains. At Jordan’s southernmost tip, beaches fringe the warm waters of the Red Sea, which harbours some of the most spectacular coral reefs in the world.

Things Not to Miss in Jordan • Witness Petra by Night - lit only by candles and a shower of stars overhead, Petra’s passageway to the Treasury hides its main attraction beneath a reverential darkness. The curves and ripples of raspberry-rust rock that mesmerize by day disappear at night, lost in the inky silence. Petra by night wasn’t beautiful and it didn’t move me. Amid the half-light in Jordan, it overwhelmed me. PS – Petra by day isn’t bad either. • Take flight over Wadi Rum - from the ground, the desert wilderness of Wadi Rum mesmerises. From the skies above looking down, it provides the kind of views that make you feel lucky to be alive. • Taste Knafeh in Amman - Knafeh, like the stone and sand of the city of Amman itself, has a deliciously rich history (and taste). Delirious with calories, this butter-soaked streetside snack presses cheese between syrup-soaked angel hair and then sprinkles it with rosewater and pistachios. • Float about in the Dead Sea - let’s face it, the Dead Sea has a depressing name. However, it does make adults act like children as they ip about like penguins on an oil-slicked underwater escalator and slather themselves in black mud to create a slick JORDAN human wetsuit. And who wants to miss that? • Go canyoning in Wadi Mujib - if wading through the Dead Sea seems too tranquil, a short trip to Wadi Mujib will soon get your pulse racing again with a spot of canyoning. Don’t be fooled into ISRAEL thinking canyoning is only for those insanely t folk; it’s an inclusive sport . • Mount Nebo - there’s an incredible mosaic in production. It depicts The King’s Way, a route that runs from Aqaba and the Red Sea north to Bosra Sham. When complete, it will run for more than 30 metres involving more than 3.5 million pieces and expects to earn the record of being the largest mosaic in the world

ISRAEL Israel offers an experience of Biblical proportions - literally. As the prime destination for religious pilgrimages, the Holy Land offers, among many sacred splendors, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Western Wall and the Dome of the Rock and that's just inside the walls of Jerusalem's Old City. Israel offers diverse experiences, both religious and secular, from the home of the Baha'i faith in Haifa to the glittering high rises and beaches in Tel Aviv.

Things Not to Miss in Israel Among the many historic and cultural experiences to pack into your Israel travel plans, some of the most popular tourist activities include:

• Seeing the Western Wall in Jerusalem's Old City • The Coenaculum of the Last Supper on Mt. Zion, which is also home to King David's tomb • Floating in the Dead Sea • Strolling through Mea Shearim, Jerusalem’s Hassidic Jewish quarter • Exploring Haifa for sea views and the Baha'i Gardens • Admiring the 1930s Bauhaus architecture of Tel Aviv 82 FEZ TRAVEL > EGYPT

Another climb can take you to the High Place of Sacri ce, and Lion Fountain. Rates are available on our website Overnight Petra (B, D) Located next to Russia, Iran, and Turkey, between the Black and Caspian Seas, the region of the South Caucasus is Europe’s forgotten frontier. The small countries of Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan might sound exotic and daunting, perhaps even conjuring up images of austere, ex-Soviet states plagued by con ict. It’s understandable that only the most adventurous travelers make it over to the Caucasus. The reality; however, is that the region is rich in ancient and fascinating cultures, incredible landscapes encompassing the Caucasus Mountains, from subtropical coastlines to dry deserts and grasslands, not to mention great food and wine, and above all, some of the friendliest and warmest people you’ll ever meet. While traveling the Cauca- sus, the best thing is to expect the unexpected. You’ll feel like you’re trapped in a surrealist novel at times.

Things Not to Miss in Caucasus • The Caucasus Mountains - with rugged peaks, green forests, white water rivers, and medieval fortresses, the Caucasus Mountains look like something out of a Tolkien novel. • Svaneti - is one of Georgia’s most beautiful regions, with alpine scenery and small towns dotted with historic defensive towers. I would take a few days to do this, since it’s far from Tbilisi, and it’s worth it to go up to the unspoiled village of Ushguli, the highest permanently inhabited village in Europe.

• Cave Cities - Georgia’s three main cave cities: Vardzia, Davit Gareji, andUplistsikhe all have something different, but spectacu- lar to offer. • Signaghi - located in the heart of the Kakheti wine region, the hill town of Signaghi is set on a hilly outcrop overlook- CAUCASUS ing the at plains all the way to Caucasus Mountains.

• Gori - Joseph Stalin’s hometown can be done as a day trip from Tbilisi. The Stalin Museum is one of the most surreal places, since it feels like a shrine to the dictator, with his childhood home preserved on the grounds , along with his private train carriage.

• Mtskheta - there are two UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the town: the Svetitskhovloba Cathedral and the Jvari Monastery, with views over the city and the Mtkvari River. Do note that if you visit any Georgian churches or monasteries as a woman you should bring a headscarf, and perhaps even a skirt or a shawl to wrap around your waist.

When to Go to Caucasus The ideal time to visit the Caucasus is in the spring and autumn, when it’s neither too hot nor too cold. If you’re looking to explore the remote part of the Caucasus Mountains, then FEZ TRAVEL > AZERBAIJAN & GEORGIA 89
