Really sorry but it was the worst tour we 've ever had! Before the tour we received 2 messages that we should be in the meating time a bit earlier just to be sure that there would be no delays and it turned out that all the group was there in time except from our guide who came 20 minutes later and then we waited for 10 more minutes to get the cards. So the tour began half past hour later. Then we were waiting in the line to get to Hagia Sofia and when we were in the door, our guide just threw us 3 lines about the monument and said that it is not allowed to speak inside so she would wait us outside. Sadly, it seems that only our guide couldn't speak inside the Mosque as all the groups entered with their guide!! So we got no further details and we didn' know what to look for! Luckily, 1 person of the group already had a tour the previous day and gave us some tips about it!!!! Also, I should add that because of the delay we entered the Hagia Sofia in time of praying, meaning that the women couldn't move freely in the temple because some places were restricted.
In Top Capi, at first we were waiting the long queus( it was supposed to be a skip the line tour) and after 15 minutes, all of a sudden, we moved forward! Still we got poor information about this monument also.
Just to make the long story short, the tour didn' t worth a dollar we spent! We would have done a lot of better just by ourselves and we would have saved our money!!!
