Wonderful tour. My husband and I were picked up at the port after our cruise and dropped off at our hotel at the end, so convenient. Our tour guide (Cugcuk, I'm sorry I may have spelt that completely incorrect) was amazing. He shared so much knowledge on the history of the area and buildings. We visited the major sights as stated in the description, had lunch at the Grand Bazaar, and had sufficient time to browse around. There was about an hour wait to the Hagia Sofia and unfortunately the Blue Mosque was closed for entry due to Friday prayer. A lot of walking which we were okay with. Overall we really enjoyed this tour and definitely recommend it for your first time in Istanbul.

Very thorough walking tour that hits all the main must-see spots in central Istanbul. Going as a couple with a guide is much better than being part of a big group! Our guide, Faut, had special skills at getting us through long lines quickly which saved both time and energy. He was also helpful and reassuring about the rules that pertain to visiting mosques. Personally, I could have done without the stops at the carpet and pottery stores; I suggest you tell the guide you would rather do something else unless you are really here to try your skills with a Turkish rug merchant.

Our tour guide Naz was unapproachable and abrasive at times. She rubbed us the wrong way from the moment we met, and it impacted our day. Istanbul was so crowded it was difficult to see anything. We got very little value for what we paid for. Naz marched us around the city for at least 5 hours (often losing us in the crowd because she didn’t wait for us) and yet after 5 hours we still saw only 2 of the promised attractions. We also paid for the tickets for Topkapi palace and they didn’t work - we waited in line for over 30 minutes (this tour didn’t allow any skipping the line) only to be denied entry because the tour didn’t arrange the tickets correctly. We should be refunded at minimum for the pre paid tickets that didn’t work, but honestly for the whole experience as we spent a lot of money for a difficult and disagreeable guide (who also took us to her own family’s store for shopping?) We didn’t see half the attractions promised and paid for in this tour. Would not recommend and really put a negative spin on our time in Istanbul.

Istanbul is very crowded and busy. This was a great way to see it without feeling overwhelmed. Our guide was very informative and let us set our own pace.
