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.

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

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,
Mark R. Fairchild
