Ephesus and St. Mary's House Day Trip from Izmir
Izmir, Turkey
My Rating

This tour was great. The only problem we encountered was the huge number of people visiting both sites. If possible, this area would be best visited outside of the main Summer holiday season but that said, the tour is well conducted and a great experience. The guide was very good and a great source of knowledge.

Gallipoli Day Trip from Istanbul
Istanbul, Turkey
My Rating

As an Australian, this tour is a must. The whole area is steeped in history and emotion and the guide that we had was so knowledgeable and so interesting - he made the day. It is a long trip from Istanbul but it is definitely worth it. Lunch was really good.

Istanbul in One Day Sightseeing Tour: Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar
Istanbul, Turkey
My Rating

Be prepared for a lot of walking but also for a lot of very interesting sites and sounds. Topkapi is amazing and has so much to offer. The Blue Mosque is beautiful and definitely a must to see, as is the Hagia Sophia. Unfortunately by the time we got to the Grand Bazaar, we were all a little tired and very hot but it gives you a little taste of the bazaar and certainly makes a future visit to the bazaar a little easier. The lunch that we had on this tour was exceptionally good and made for a nice break in the middle of the day.

Bosphorus Cruise and Istanbul's Egyptian Bazaar
Istanbul, Turkey
My Rating

The cruise was a nice relaxing way to spend an afternoon. It gives you a nice view into a different area of Istanbul with some interesting things along the way. Unfortunately the day we took this tour, the Spice Bazaar was closed.
