Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
Incredible tour. We were able to see so much in so little time. If you are visiting Istanbul you’ll not regret.
Hagia Sophia is absolutely breathtaking mosque! Loved seeing the spots were the plaster has come off to reveal beautiful mosaics showing the building's original purpose, as a Christian church.
Can't wait to go back once the views are no longer obstructed by scaffolding and the restoration has ceased.
We had an amazing experience with this company. The driver was excellent and the tour was fantastic. Highly recommended.
Hagia Sophia an absolute must to see in Istanbul. you will need several hours to see it all and in the winter it's very cold.
You cannot visit this city without taking the majestic tour up the Bosphorus. If we had enough time we would have also taken the evening trip.
If you visit Istanbul, don't fight the urge. Take the privatetour, across the Bosphorus Strait to the Asian continent. If for no other reason but to say that in one afternoon you were in both Europe and Asia. Great fun!
This a beautiful little cruise, we took the two hour one, where you will see the European side and then the Asian side. Well worth the money.
Four of us embarked on this cruise tour and had a nice relaxed day. Would I recommend it to my friends? it depends on what you really like to see. Istanbul is a great city with many things to see and to do, so unless you have a lot of time in Istanbul you need to prioritize.
The cruise up the Bosphorus was great. Definitely think we made the right decision to go with the ferry vs a private cruise. The weather was perfect although it got chilly, so it’s necessary to bring layers in the Fall.
We went to the Grand Bazaar and bought table cloths, mosaic lamps and carpet I thought it was reasonable price after we negotiate for a discount.
