Beylerbeyi Palace Visit - Yet another wonderful thing to do in Istanbul!
We enjoyed our trip over to the Asia side of Istanbul, we had a beautiful day, we had a fantastic city, our van was so comfortable, and our guide, Hazel, was excellent.
Our tour left at 1 PM; we were at the meeting point at 12:45 a.m. and Hazel was already there to meet us. She was very friendly, knowledgeable, and we enjoyed our time with her. She explained all aspects of the Palace to us and we appreciated all the information. The exterior of the palace as well as the interior is undergoing renovation, but this cannot be avoided of course. We were amazed at how populated and how very modern the Asia side of Turkey is in this area. We also returned on time, and as traffic can be a factor, that was a good thing.
