Turkeys LUXURY High Speed Train - Istanbul to Ankara at 250km/h in a VIP Suite! [kSwTpcHgnPv]

Welcome to Turkey! My first video from this amazing country is looking at TCDD's top rank YHT high speed service between Istanbul and Ankara, and at exceptional value too inside a VIP compartment. Join me in what I think is the most underrated high speed rail experience (pending a few improvements) as we travel on the Middle East's first high speed railway. Enjoy the video!
