Intro to Asian Istanbul

Fun and informative look around the mosque, palace and Kuzguncuk. Loved the lunch spot which Atahan selected and we were able to see beautiful views from the car ferry as we crossed the Bosporus.

Great fun

Enjoyable. Our guide and driver were loads of fun and understanding. Completely flexible as I have injured my leg, so walking was a little slow. Delik was accommodating and adjusted our sites as we requested to fit in. Completely flexible. Easy to deal with company - wish we had booked all our trips with them had we known they would do that. Asian side was interesting and i think undervalued as a place to visit,
