“We visited Iraq in August despite reservations based on news in the US. Our experience was entirely contrary to what was portrayed in the West. We were there for four days and it was entirely peaceful with no signs of conflict whatsoever. Ahmet organized our hotels and itinerary based on what we had requested. We wanted to travel for ziaret to the religious sites but also see other historical sites to mix it up. Hayder was our guide and Ali was our driver - we couldn't have asked for more helpful, friendly,respectful pair. Our kids felt immediately comfortable around them and they made an effort to cater to all of our needs. We were able to see Karbala, Najaf, Kufa, Samarra, Baghdad, and Babylonin four days. We even stopped in Fallujah for dinner! The food there is incredible and Hayder and Ali were sure they took us to the best places with lots of variety. We were welcomed everywhere we went as the Iraqis are warm, inviting folk. A trip to Iraq is highly recommended with this team!”
