Despite a late night confrontation and a very early morning call confirming the tour, it was canceled 10 minutes before the pick up.

Pickup was quick and on time. Was given enough tome at the palace to have a look at everything and was early enough to beat most of the crowds. Was also early enough to access the back of the palace where the sultan lived. The boat ride itself was very nice though it straddled lunchtime. So would recommend to bring some snacks to carry over until tour ended at around 1430. Guide was excellent and knowledgeable and kept us all informed. Port where the tour ended was right next to the tram so was able to hop on to the next destination directly.

I recommend this tour. Guide was knowledgeable and we got to see Dolmabahce castle and harem and enjoy the ride over the Bosphore with complimentary tea.

They were supposed to pick us at the hotel. 15 minutes before, they called us to ask to take a taksi saying that they will pay it. Finally we did pay and they didn’t want to pay the 600 liras because for them it was too expensive. We had an agreement to at least pay us back half of it the next day, and they never came to give us back our money. The tour was also quite lame. Too expensive for what is it and very not honest.

Absolutely a 10/10!!! The hotel pick up was the start of the amazing tour. I loved seeing all the buildings and the streets while driving to our destination. Dolmabahce Palace was breathtaking. I learned so much history of the palace while walking around taking it all in. The boat tour was amazingly informative. I learned so much about Turkey and got to see so much in just a couple hours. Mohsen, our tour guide was very kind and very helpful as was the rest of the stuff. I definitely recommend this tour to others if you are interested in history.
