Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
We had a private tour to Istanbul. It was a great trip with a knowledgeable and friendly guide. The private car was very clean and the driver was nice. Highly recommended.
Absolutely wonderful view of the city of Istanbul in its European and Asian sides. Many great historical places like Dolmabahce palace and Rumeli Hisari could be seen. A must visit for everyone I think.
Cuando dices istanbul hay que decir seguidamente maravilla por que lo es visitenla que se quedaran pasmados de tanta belleza
The Grand Bazaar is only really good for the atmosphere. It is, as promised, a buzzing indoor market offering a multitude of tourist-trap items.
I enjoyed visiting the Hagia Sophia but there was not as much information as i would have liked once inside.
Hippodrome is next to the Blue Mosque there are several little sights here. 3 snakes, german fountain, obelisk etc.
Grand bazaar was very beautiful, but inside they ask 3 times the amount of money they ask outside the bazaar. It's pretty to see, but it's all the same.
We took a tour of the bosphorus strait and it was great. The ship was a little pushy on buying drinks and snacks so I could have done without being asked 5 times if I wanted to drink some tea. Overall, the Bosphorus is a must see !
If you're going to visit Hagia Sophia and/or the Blue Mosque, the Hippodrome will be on your way. Might as well stop by to take some pics.
Hagia Sophia is built in the sixth century and a christian church until the 1400's. It later became a mosque and is now a national museum. The dome and the wonderful interior will knock your socks off. Do not miss the view from the second floor. There are winding stairs that allow you to view the dome from a great vantage point.
