Istanbul to Goreme Destination Reviews
CP
Chloe PNo toilet on coach and was sure I ensured I chose a coach with toilet access. The seat I chose was not one given and ended up being sat at the front. Journey was fine as slept most of the way however driver kept smoking which did wake us up and make for an unpleasant journey. Journey time was 2 hours less than stated would be.

Dunstan OWas prompt and had a good ride. However the ventilation was quite poor which made the bus warm and having loads of people cough. Air vent should be opened for a while at the start of the trip or at least passengers should be given that option to have that.
