LETTER FROM KANSAS UNIVERSITY

Greetings,
My experience on a nine-day tour with Ramtur in March, 2004, was entirely positive. Ramtur employees carefully took care of the many details involved in planning a trip and worked hard to meet every request our group made. On the trip itself, everything was as promised, and our guide went out of her way to give us the best experience of Turkey I could imagine. The meals were ample, the accommodations were comfortable, and the transportation was efficient. When I take another group to that part of the world, I will not hesitate to work with Ramtur again. I would recommend the organization to any traveling group, student or otherwise.

LETTER FROM BELHAVEN COLLEGE

Dear Ramtur,

I want you to know that I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to Turkey and I hope to return with another group soon. Your organization of the ten day experience was excellent and the professional expertise of our guide was outstanding. We found the country and the people of Turkey to be welcoming and friendly. The food was a delightful surprise!
PS If you are in my area of Southeast Tennessee, you are welcome to stay with me and let me show you the mountains and lakes!

LETTER FROM METHODIST THEOLOGICAL SCHOOL IN OHIO

As president of the American Theological Library Association I recently published in our bimonthly Newsletter a letter from the president to all of our members suggesting a trip to Turkey. While Ramtur is not explicitly mentioned, if I get enough of a response to my suggested trip you shall be hearing from me about planning it. We were very happy with all the arrangements you made. Tomorrow I leave for our annual conference which will be attended by over 400 members. I shall be interested in hearing from those members who show interest about such a future trip, and will speak most approvingly of Ramtur.

LETTER FROM HUNTINGTON COLLEGE

Dear Ramtur,

Having recently completed our study tour of Turkey I wanted to get back to you and thank you for a job well done. The arrangements you made were flawless. The hotels and meals were superb, the transportation was wonderful and the tour guide was fabulous. Additionally, your flexibility throughout the trip made the journey even more enjoyable. Turkey is a beautiful country with amazing sites for the study of the New Testament. This was such an enriching experience for me and the students.

It was also good to be able to interact with the Turkish people and to experience their friendship and sincerity. In the midst of turbulent times, it was comforting to know that we were safe and welcome in Turkey.

I have taken Huntington College students on study tours in the past, but this trip was distinguished by Ramtur's professionalism, expertise and courtesy. You can be sure that all my future trips to Turkey will be with Ramtur. Don't hesitate to use me as a reference for others.

Sincerely,
