Doing what: 8-Day Best of Turkey Tour from Istanbul: Pamukkale, Bursa, Troy, Gallipoli, Ephesus
Outstanding trip. Our tour guide Murat and driver Mustaffa were very nice people. lots of fun and very friendly. The tour was coordinated very well. The only only slight draw back was the quality of the over night stay (3rd night} at the Grand Onder Hotel in Kusadasi. Overall this was a GREAT and ENJOYABLE trip.

Doing what: Dolmabahce Palace Tour in Istanbul
Our guide, Osman, was full of energy and knowledge of the palace. Entertained us with stories of the past. A must visit place in Istanbul.

Doing what: Istanbul in One Day Sightseeing Tour: Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar
Our guide was fantastic. He can be considered a walking historian. The best thing is we skip the line when we visited the underground cistern ( or else we had to wait at least 1 hour due to the queque). Enough time to venture at all places and most importantly, they were punctual when they pick us up at the hotel.

Our tour guide was very knowledgable and informative. The tour itself is pretty full on, but well worth it as you get some excellent insight into Istanbul. Highly recommend it! :)

Doing what: Istanbul in One Day Sightseeing Tour: Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar
Super tour and introduction to the most famous sites in Istanbul, plus the guide and driver were helpful and adaptable in maneuvering around some of Istanbul's worst traffic. The tour group in the van was diverse in countries represented and a good time was had by all through the day and over the delicious Turkish meal at lunch time. The guide gave us options throughout the day so that people could go through some sites with him, have some time on their own, and meet together to journey to the next destination.

Doing what: Princes’ Island Tour from Istanbul: Buyukada
The carridge ride was so fast that we thought it was a race or something. It was such in a hurry that we did not really able to enjoy the scenery from top of the hill. The tour needs to inform them to take it easy and allow the guests to stop for photos. Lunch was ok.

Doing what: Istanbul City Tour with Bosphorus Strait Sightseeing Cruise
30 mintues in the Egyptian bazaar and 1 hour on the ferry. Hotel pick up and drop off were included in the price but later we were told that they can't give drop off. It was very chaotically organized at the beginning in the morning.

Omar was the best guide. He was very knowledgable and patient with our huge group of 16. Lunch was outstanding with this tour, only wished we had a bit more time to shop at the Grand Bazaar.

Doing what: Istanbul by Night: Turkish Dinner and Show
My 18 year old son and I had a delightful evening. There was a mix of traditional folk dancing from a variety of ethnic groups as well as a stand up comedian at the end of the evening. The entertainment was tasteful and engaging for both teenagers and adults.
The food was not as creative as some smaller restaurants in Istanbul but was tasty and of adequate quality.
The most satisfying aspect of our evening was our waiter who gave extensive attention to me an my son and made us feel that we were having dinner at a relatives house rather than at a mass dinner for cruise ship travelers. I should note that while I was initially concerned about Viator reviews saying that "small groups were put in the back of the room" when we arrived at the restaurant we were planed no more than 8 - 10 feet from the stage. In summary we beleive that it was a fun night out.
