Very much enjoyed our guide & tour. Would have liked to have the harem rooms included at Topkapi Palace instead of the Grand Bazaar, which we ended up doing on our own.
Our guide was pleasant and easy to understand. We went first to Suleymaniye Mosque only to discover it has been closed for reconstruction for 2 years!! We walked around outside, looked at the restaurants as well as the graveyard and then went to Topkapi. After Topkapi we went to a carpet/jewelry showroom. Although there was no real pressure to purchase I felt that I did not get my money's worth. Why weren't we taken to the Blue Mosque as a substitute. Why have a mosque on a tour that is closed. We also would have liked to get more of a sense of what the city was like. Our tour ended a half an hour early, and we really only saw one real place of interest. We did not get our money's worth on this four hour tour..
