We’re very pleased to announce that the PNB Fund Turkey trip is on! Asu Okyay, a native of Izmir, Turkey and PNB Fund Board member, has worked tirelessly for months to put together an exciting and unique itinerary. We’re offering two options. Option I includes guided visits in and around Istanbul and an inland trip to the underground cities of Cappadocia (Oct. 15 - 24). Option II invites those who are interested in traveling for five more days to explore the Aegean coast of Turkey (Oct. 23 - 29) and visit some of the country’s historical treasures. While both itineraries are full of exciting excursions and group outings, their charm is also that they give people time to explore on their own, as everyone has different interests—from shopping in the bazaars to visiting museums to relaxing at the local cafes.
