Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
A cruise on the Bosphorus is a nice way to see the old city as well as the new city on 2 different continents. There are a lot of palaces and landmarks along the river that are very interesting. Most of the cruises can provide shady seating or seating in the sun.
This is a nice way to spend a couple of hours while in Istanbul.
We visited Istanbul for 1 ½ days on board the Celebrity Reflection in August. I highly recommend this company and our guide Taylan for your Istanbul experience.
We took a short (2 hour) trip which was very pleasant. There was supposed to be English commentary onboard but although we tried different areas of the boat we could not hear it. Very pretty views of the European and Asian sides of the Bosphorous.
We visited Istanbul during a Princess Med cruise. Our guide was so knowledgeable and passionate about his country with a great sense of humour, that it made our tour outstanding. Would love to have him again! Thank you so much for making our tour such a wonderful experience!
Must see if visiting istanbul especially on a sunny day. I took the ferry which was 3 or 5 Lira and rode it the entire way and back. Great picture opportunities.
The guide was very flexible being a private vehicle they would stop anywhere we asked them to. It was amazing experience with these great people.
We had an excellant Tour. It was really great! Thanks and all the best..
La verdad estaba muy nerviosa por lo del tour pero contratamos el tour privado y vimos casi todo istanbul fue todo muy emotivo
Hagia Sophia a huge ancient Christian church which bacame a muslim place of worship during the Ottoman Empire. Great exterior but the queues to go inside were so long we could not stay to see inside – pity as it is apparently be spectacular.
Travelled to turkey last week and decided to book a private tour for my family, it was excelled. Brilliant sites and ruins, tour guide spoke brilliant English and was a lot of fun.
