Our private tour was in early November 2022. All the information given by our professional guide made the history of Istanbul come alive.I have a fondness for tiles and wasn’t disappointed with all we saw in the mosques. We were surprised by the cisterns tour and the changing lights.Doing a boat ride on the Bosporus was delightful.The walking was easy enough the two days we toured. We were met both days at our hotel. We provided the transportation via cab.we shopped a little allowing me to buy two lovely scarves where many famous people shopped!
