All the highlights of Istanbul with Shopping included!
Spent a wonderful day in Istanbul with our guide, Sait. He was already waiting for us when we exited the cruise terminal and ushered us into a beautiful Mercedes Sprinter van.
We saw the Blue Mosque, Hippodrome and Hagia Sophia in the morning. Stopped at a carpet store. Had an authentic Turkish lunch at a local restaurant. Visited two other great shops. Even though it was a Sunday, they were open w hospitable staff. Special added trip to beautiful Cistern. Ended the day Topkapi Palace which is a destination in itself.
Sait knew all the best vendors, gave great advice and his knowledge is unmatched
We thoroughly enjoyed our day and highly recommend this tour!

Feel luxury in a big car.
Hagia Sophia was truly amazing and I took enough time to see it. However, since you are barefoot, we recommend that you bring your own mask if you are concerned about the smell. Towards the end he took me to the carpet shop and I was insistent, but otherwise it was OK.
Private Istanbul Old City & Shopping Tour Went October 2
We loved our tour of Istanbul with Musa. He was the best tour guide. He was very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. He was always looking out for us in the crowds. He knew how to get in the Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque & Blue Mosque quickly. There were so many tour groups there. Musa saved us so much time!
Musa met us at the Cruise Port too. He was there early and let us know exactly where he would meet us.
We also went to the Grand Bazaar. He looked out for us so we could get good deals on our purchases. He suggested a local restaurant to enjoy good local cuisine!
Musa went out of his way to make our visit to Istanbul so memorable. This is the best way to see Istanbul and the tour was very reasonable ! Request Musa you will be so happy you did!!

Private Old Istanbul Tour
Nice leisurely tour of the major sites in Old Istanbul. Topkapi Palace was closed, but Utku took us to the Galata Tower instead. Not being in a group of 12 or 20 made the experiences SO much better!

We had a wonderful experience.Our tour guide was Utku and he is a true gem. Such a kind and knowledgable guy. I was with my Mom who is 74 yo and he was great making sure the tour was geared towards what we wanted to see. It was the best part of our short trip.
