We so appreciate Taylan’s arranging a guide for us at the last minute. We got a wonderful review of his services from a neighbor just as we were leaving for Istanbul. He was able to reach out to a guide he trusted and arrange for two days in Istanbul visiting the most important sites.
The Grand Bazzar in Istanbul was ultra crowded, full of jewelry, tee shirt, cheap hat, spice, cheap bracelet shops and VERY, VERY PUSHY shopkeepers. This is no place for anyone with walking difficulties – or in fact for anyone.
Thank you for making our “trip of a lifetime” magical!
Visiting Topkapi Palace is one of the most enriching tourist experiences, visually & culturally. To wander through its various courts & complex of structures is to imagine yourself stepping back into imperial Ottoman times. The amazing opulence & grandeur of the Palace reflects the unbridled, absolute power and majesty that the Sultan possessed. There is nothing small-scale about Topkapi palace.
Very attractive place….many restaurants are there….the blue mosque snd ayasofia church, a very busy distinct. ?.also a lot of small motels are there…lovely area
La ciudad mas linda ISTANBUL sin duda alguna
Visting the Topkapi Palace you get to see beautiful structures, nature and views. The views overlooking the water are not to be missed and is a welcome area after the crowds in the main viewing area.
The best of all the tours we did. The AC van, guide, driver, and lunch excellent.
I very much enjoyed my visit to Topkapi Palace. The palace is huge, you should schedule at least twice the time your guidebook recommends if your really want to seee it all. Half the appeal of the palace is the beautiful buildings that spread out across the compound. The arcitecture is amazing !
匆匆一日游无法看完整个伊斯坦堡。下次再来土耳其时,一定要参加两或三日游,才过瘾。
