Stockholm Grand Tour by Coach and Boat

Stockholm, Sweden

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review

The coach and boat tour were both very interesting and scenic. It was easy to find the meeting place for the bus, we sat up top and had a great view of all of the sites in the city. The bus dropped us off right at the boat so we didn't have to search for that loading area. The boat tour has headphones which allow you to listen in several different languages. This tour gave us an opportunity to see a lot of the city in a short period of time, great value.

Excellent service, comfortable van and very professional guide who gave just the perfect amount of information. There were only 8 of us, so much nicer than crowding onto a large bus.

Istanbul Two Continents Half-Day Tour

Istanbul, Turkey

My Rating
2 star rating: It was OK, but could have been better

My Review
The original tour operator did not do the tour; they assigned it to another group, and the tour was not the same one advertised through Viator. The van picked us up at our hotel and then we went to a meeting place and waited while other vans arrived with all of the other tourists. We ended up doing the boat ride on the Bosphorous and the spice market combination. The scenery along the boat tour was gorgeous, guide was not too easy to understand. Spice market was much nicer than the Grand Bazaar. It seemed like we spent more time riding in vans, buses and more vans than was necessary.

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

Istanbul, Turkey

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review
We were picked up from the cruise port right on time and then taken to our hotel at the end of the tour. Our guide was very informative and spoke perfect English. The meal at the Topkapi Palace was good and quick. We saw lots during the day, and with the traffic in Istanbul it was nice to have someone else do the driving! Carpet demo was interesting, no one in our group bought any rugs, so even though we did feel pressured it wasn't that intense. Would advise anyone going to Istanbul to take this tour to get the "basics" in all in one day.

Essential Amsterdam: Museum Tickets, Canal Cruise and Bike Rental

Amsterdam, Netherlands

My Rating
2 star rating: It was OK, but could have been better

My Review
The bike company was very hard to find and when we got there the only bikes they had were huge and the staff was confused. We had to ride to the canal tour to pick up the tickets for the Van Gogh museum, we needed 4 and they only had 1 so we had to wait about an hour for them to have more tickets delivered. Canal tour and museum were good.

4 star rating: Recommended

My Review
Our guide was very informative and our family felt much safer and more informed going through the district with her. The stop at the info center afterward was also interesting and allowed us to get answers to some questions about the system.
