Exceptional! We had some extra days in Bodrum, and we thought of booking this day trip. I can easily say now that it was the best decision we made! Istanbul is iconic! If you have never been there, don’t miss it! We arrived there with a flight, and went straight for sightseeing. We visited some of the most famous places in the city, and now I’m in love with Istanbul. I will definitely go again! Our guide was so friendly, and she knew many things about the sites. Istanbul is in my heart, I wish this tour lasted for longer!

The vibes of the city are so cool! One thing that really impressed me is that Istanbul has a bit of everything. I’m not really into sightseeing, but my friends insisted on booking the tour. Well, it was an amazing day. I couldn’t get enough of the city’s atmosphere. Streets are packed, and that boosted my enthusiasm! My personal favourite was the bazaar and the views over the Bosporus. I snapped many photos, and we even went on an optional cruise. Our guide arranged everything, and it was a very nice experience. Super excursion, very interesting, and has a bit for everything for all. Recommended!

Best day so far! Went yesterday there and I have to say that Istanbul took my heart. This city is so beautiful, I can’t even imagine how it would be to spend more days there. Went we some friends and had a blast. Apart from the general atmosphere that this city has, we were happy to discover some well-known places of interest. Topkapi and the Egyptian bazaar were true highlights for us. Thank God we had an amazing guide with us, so we got the chance to learn some things. Yesterday’s trip was a happy addition in our holidays. Thumps up to the tour company for the high levels of professionalism. We’ll visit Istanbul again for sure.
