Additional Information

What travelers say about Rucksack Routes

For our three weeks in Colombia, Selçuk planned our entire route. I appreciated how structuted it was and what I liked most was that the itinerary felt tailored, not copied from a blog. It matched my travel style and gave me clarity without taking away flexibility.

Dimi

Selçuk planned a long weekend in Istanbul for us and he gave us the names of small restaurants, local cafés and neighborhoods we probably would have never found ourselves. It didn’t feel like a standard city guide and I could tell, that he really knew the place.

Nina

I basically gave Selçuk full freedom for my Asia trip and trusted him with the structure. That trust paid off. The route felt balanced and logical, and I didn’t have to stress about planning every detail. It was a relief to know someone had really thought it through.
