Local DMC in Turkey

Kackar Tour is a local DMC in Turkey. Since 1990 our team in Istanbul's historic Fatih district has handled the ground arrangements behind tour operators', travel agencies' and event planners' programmes across the country.

A destination management company turns your itinerary into confirmed hotels, vehicles, guides, restaurants and venues, and stays responsible for them while your guests travel. We are a TÜRSAB-licensed agency and work business to business: our programmes are built for tour operators, travel agencies and event planners, and delivered on the ground by our own team.

What a local DMC handles for you

• Hotel contracting: contracted rates from boutique hotels to five-star resorts, with allotments and rooming lists managed for you.
• Transfers and transport: airport meet-and-greet, coaches for groups and VIP vehicles with professional drivers.
• Licensed guides: English- and French-speaking guides, and other languages on request.
• Tours and excursions: day tours and multi-day circuits, from Istanbul to Cappadocia and Ephesus.
• Restaurants and venues: group dining, gala dinners and private venues.
• MICE and incentives: meetings, incentive trips, conferences and events, planned and run on site.

How we work with tour operators and agencies

This is how we work with trade partners:

• One contact person from the first inquiry to the last transfer.
• A clear, itemised quotation, so you can see what each service includes.
• Written confirmations for hotels, transport and guides.
• Your programme, your clients. We work as your ground partner, behind your brand.
• Local support from our team in Istanbul while the group is travelling.

Where we operate in Türkiye

Seven regions, one local team. Each region page explains what we arrange there for groups and individual travellers.

• Istanbul: city breaks, incentives and the start of most circuits.
• Cappadocia: cave hotels, balloon flights and valley walks.
• Aegean coast: Ephesus, Izmir, Kuşadası and Bodrum.
• Antalya and the Turquoise Coast: resorts, Fethiye, Kaş and gulet routes.
• Pamukkale: the travertines and Hierapolis, often combined with Ephesus.
• Black Sea and Kaçkar Mountains: plateaus, tea gardens and trekking.
• Eastern Anatolia: Mount Nemrut, Göbeklitepe and the routes beyond.

Why work with Kackar Tour as your DMC in Turkey

We work directly with hotels, transport companies, guides and venues across Türkiye. Those long-standing relationships help us confirm services and adapt quickly when plans change.

The team that prepares your proposal is the same team that books the services and follows the group on the ground.

After more than 35 years in Turkish inbound tourism, we know which hotels suit which groups, how long a transfer really takes in Istanbul traffic, and which season fits which region. That knowledge goes into every programme we prepare.
