It was one of the best experinces of us in Istanbul. Our day started early morning with visiting Hagia Sophia, and our very professional guide Unal Cakmak made us to feel comfortable within international group of tourists, and even more excited about our next tour sights. We appreciated a lot Unal's attention to every small detail during all the day. As for tour organization, everything was on time, the itinerary plan was ideal and private transfer car was pretty nice. For next Istanbul trip we have to book Bosphorus and Camlica tour at the same agency. Looking forward to joining that soon. Recommended!

Was meant as a introduction to Istanbul city and sights. The tour guide was on time and communicative but lacked enthusiasm and almost felt like rushed with lack of information.
