Tour en autobús turístico con paradas libres en Estambul

The price is very high, and a certain part of the tour is really not interesting to discover. There is a lot of traffic, and 2 hours and 15 minutes on the bus is very long for the red line. We bought a ticket for 2 days that cost us €152, and you do not get complimentary water bottles. Lol. The next morning, we took the blue line, and the bus roof was closed due to a so-called technical problem, and if you do not open the windows, it is a furnace. The blue line is not very interesting. I advise you to visit Istanbul using the metro and tram, which are much cheaper. In conclusion, we regret taking the hop-on hop-off bus.

From the cruise port Istanbul for €150 bought 3 tickets once outside full bus ( that's possible ) but don't worry there was an empty one where they only sell tickets , the man said in 10 minutes a new bus arrives but after 45 minutes we just started walking. On the way to next stop there arrived a full bus and this continued until we arrived at the blue mosque 5 km walk, when we thought to get in there unfortunately bus was full and finally at 17.00 about in short don't every taxi driver laughs about it when you say you bought tickets for the hop On hop off bus .Walked back and complained to seller who said I don't care I'm just sitting here to sell. Worthless service and €150 lighter

We had a very disappointing experience with this hop-on hop-off bus tour in Istanbul, mainly due to poor organisation and customer service and we have done the bus tours all across Europe At Sultanahmet, near the major mosques, we were abruptly and quite aggressively told by the driver to leave the bus and move to another one, with absolutely no prior warning that the tour would terminate there. It created unnecessary confusion and stress. I do not understand why guests have to switch buses at all if drivers need breaks, surely the drivers could switch instead of disrupting passengers mid tour. We had finally managed to get decent seats by an open window on the first bus, only to be moved onto another bus that was completely full, forcing us to sit separately. The ticketing and QR code process was also extremely confusing. The first bus allowed us on without issue, but on the second bus we were suddenly told we needed a QR code. The problem is that when booking through GetYourGuide, the tickets and QR codes they provide are apparently not the correct ones. Instead, you are expected to message a WhatsApp number to receive another code, and they only send it once you are physically at the bus stop and send them a photo of it. This is unnecessarily complicated and embarrassing when you are holding up a queue of people trying to board. The experience on the buses themselves was also poor: * Headphones were not working properly, meaning there was no audio narration for many landmarks. * One bus had the roof completely open, leaving passengers burning in the sun. * Another had the roof fully closed, creating a greenhouse effect with almost no airflow. A half-open roof setup would make far more sense for comfort. There also seemed to be frequent smoking breaks by the driver, leaving the bus stationary in the heat for long periods. Overall, the company needs serious improvements in organisation, communication, and customer service. A smile and basic courtesy go a long way, and unfortunately that was missing throughout much of this experience. Only positive- Istanbul is a nice city so it helped with getting around and seeing some of it

After 25 minutes and travelling only 200m in congested traffic, we got off in the end and walked our destination. Friends on another bus did the same thing. The narrow roads and massive amounts of traffic are not conducive to this being an effective tour option. It was not the drivers fault, purely a downside of such a big. fantastically chaotic city. We also did not get a commentary which wouldn’t have been an issue if it were an isolated thing but with the traffic delays and the bus (bottom level) being so incredibly hot, it just added to the disappointment. I honestly would recommend using the tram to get around instead. We should maybe have looked at reviews before purchasing these tickets on line.

Clean bus, easy to find and great way to get a lay of the land, where things are and what you want to see. Recording did not always match what you were seeing and sometimes what was being talked about was on the other side of the bus but it was covered due to rain, was warm and dry. Fully recommend this.

Great experience, recommend it to those who want to visit more points of the city with excellent service

If you are in for a short visit, this tour will cover most of the landmarks. We only spent 2 days but we covered almost all the landmarks… it was raining- but the tour guide made our tour as memorable as possible.

A disappointment, we bought the tour of both lines, yesterday blue line with the driver who skipped the stop where we wanted to get off and stopped for a long time at other stops. Today red line where he cut a third of the way, to my question he answered (in incomprehensible English) that there was too much traffic. We decided to go down to the Galata Tower area because it made very long stops

Very good experience I love it. we spend the whole day on and off Very nice people very attentive and worry about you have the better experience totally recomend it...

This bus trip is an excellent way to see Istanbul. Very clean bus, head phones provided and very interesting commentary. Highly recommend as good value for money.
