Amazing!

Doing a tour (vs touring on your own) is well worth it! This is a walking tour so the historic sites are next to each other but the group tour lets you skip the lines (VERY important for Hague Sophia) and the tour guide brings so much more meaning to what you are seeing....it seems a waste of money for the high entrance fees (you must pay out of pocket for entry fees) without having someone share the history. Grand Bazaar is closed on Sundays so don't do this tour on Sunday!

Amazing!

The guide picked us up on time by the cruise port. The small group made it easier to see the sites. Our tour guide was informative, helpful and professional. We had a filled and enjoyable day. It required lots of walking, but it's the only way to see all the sites.

Amazing!

Amazing tour with a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Lunch was included and it was tasty. The only change was not going to the grand bazaar because it was closed on Sunday. However, our guide pointed us to the Arasti and Spice Bazaar to visit on our own. Pick up and drop off was a huge plus. Just remember if you requested both pick up and drop off to remind them. The driver waited until I was done shopping to take me back to my hotel. Highly recommend this tour.
