Organization-wise everything was perfect. The bus picked us up on time. All the activities went smoothly. The guide was very nice and made sure that everybody was comfortable and there was a nice and relaxed vibe in the group. Suggestions: 1) Add a bit of story telling. To have an impact, the excursion needs to get participants to visualize the life of people who inhibited the palaces or who fought for the control of Bosporus in the past. 2) The guide speaks several languages very well. It's really cool. But I would suggest to mostly stick to the language of the excursion unless somebody has a difficulty. It's nice to understand all discussions going on between the guide and people from the group.

The guild was very knowable. Just the bus seat was a bit small, cramped. The boat ride was great and relaxing. Don't expect too much from the cableway, over very quickly.

The tour was supposed to be pickup from hotel but the operator messaged if I can walk to a pickup point (restaurant) that was 15 minute away, from there we were shuttled to the Bosphorus ferry. The ferry was a 1.5 hour round trip with absolutely no description of what we are seeing our tour guide basically just sat and was on his phone. After the ferry we were shuttled to the top of Pierre Loti, for a five minute picture stop then rushed down the cable car back to the shuttle they then took us to an overpriced Turkish delight/ spice shop and spent well over 40 minutes while the owner had us a a captive audience selling expensive delights. We were then dropped off in the old city. I would say if you are short on time and don’t care about any history except a quick ferry , cable tour then this is for you else it’s a waste of money.

Wonderful tour guide explained everything with great detail. Timing was right. Visited the sites during a low season so we felt we were receiving a private tour. Crowds at sightseeing areas was understandable. Enjoyed snacks from places Pierre Loti, Ferry, and restaurant. Great pictures. Memorable chat with the tour guide.
