"From the shadow of the walls to the city of stone mansions"
On the first day of our tour, we meet at Ankara Esenboğa Airport approximately two hours before our flight time to complete check-in and baggage procedures. Then, we set off towards the historic and cultural atmosphere of Southeastern Anatolia with AJet Airlines' 07:40 flight from Ankara Esenboğa to Diyarbakır.

After breakfast, we begin our city tour of Diyarbakır. We take in panoramic views of the city's history around the Diyarbakır Walls and Keçi Burcu, and see Hevsel Gardens, which are listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Then, we make a short walk around the Ulu Camii, one of the city's important religious and historical sites. Completing our tour through the streets and historical buildings that reflect Diyarbakır's traditional urban fabric, we depart from the city. Continuing along our route, we head towards Hasankeyf. On the banks of the Euphrates River, we view Hasankeyf, one of Mesopotamia's most impressive settlements with its thousands of years of history, in a panoramic manner accompanied by our guide's narration. After learning about its historical texture and the new settlement process, we take a short tea break.
Then, we move on to Midyat. Upon our arrival in the city, we offer an optional lunch break for guests who wish. After lunch, we explore Midyat's historic streets on foot, discovering the region's distinctive stone mansions, arched passages, and traditional architecture. We provide some free time in the historic markets, offering guests the opportunity to purchase Syriac wine, silverwork, and local products. In the latter part of the day, we continue our journey towards Mardin. Upon arriving at Kaya Ninova Hotel, located in the historic center of the city, we settle into our rooms and have dinner.

"History carved into stones, the ancient soul of Mardin..."
After taking breakfast at our hotel in the morning, we start the day with Deyrulzafaran Monastery, one of the most important religious centers of Syriac culture. In the monastery, which stands out with its dominant position over the Mardin Plain, we explore its historical courtyards, church sections, and other significant parts of the monastery with the guidance of our tour guide. We listen to the story of Deyrulzafaran, which has held an important place in the region's faith and cultural life for centuries. Then, we turn our route to Dara Ancient City. In Dara, which was one of the important centers on the eastern border of Mesopotamia during the Roman period; we see its cave-cut structures, cisterns, necropolis areas, and the remains of the ancient settlement that have reached us today with the help of our guide. We conduct a short exploration in this impressive city that bears witness to thousands of years of Mesopotamian history.
After our historical tour, we move towards nature to meet Beyazsu. In Beyazsu, which is a refreshing stopover point with its clear waters and lush greenery within Mardin's warm climate, we are given free time to rest and enjoy the surroundings. Guests who wish can take an extra lunch here. After our break, we return to Mardin's historic center and begin to discover the true soul of the city. During our Old Mardin tour, we explore this unique urban fabric where different cultures and beliefs have coexisted for centuries by walking with our guide. As we walk through the old stone houses, we see Abbaras (traditional Mardin houses), Mardin's important mosques and churches, historical streets, and traditional architectural structures. At important stops like Ulu Camii and Kırklar Kilisesi, we listen to narratives about Mardin's multicultural past.

"From the first temples to the City of Prophets…"
After having breakfast at our hotel in the morning, we depart early from Mardin towards Şanlıurfa. The first stop of the day is Göbeklitepe, one of the oldest monumental structures known in human history. With a history dating back approximately 12,000 years, Göbeklitepe has changed our understanding of history; its T-shaped standing stones, animal figures, and mysterious structures offer important clues about humanity's transition to settled life. We visit this unique archaeological site accompanied by our guide's narration.

In Harran, one of the most important settlements of historical Mesopotamia, we view the Harran Dome Houses, the historical settlement fabric, and other significant points witnessing the region's past, guided by our guide's explanations.
