Booking and collection went well. Then we were stuck in a traffic jam for 2 hours, but no one can do anything about all the traffic+experience has shown that the Turkish guides are really good at orga (Read More)nizing+you can definitely trust them here. Then boat tour 1.5 hours. Here we were taken by guide Ebru. Then back on the bus+off to Sultanahmet Spice Bazar. Then Ebru steered us straight into a booth... We didn't like it! You would then be forced to buy it. Unpleasant. Then we still had 15(!!!) minutes for the bazaar and then we had to collect again and get on the bus. We were told when we booked that we would be taken back to the hotel. But we would stop everyone else according to Ebru.. She would let us out at the metro U there we should go to Sisli and take the Taksi to the hotel. Funny! You can only buy a metro card with a cash card plus cash. If we didn't have a cash card, we had to look for a Taksi. Everything a bit half-hearted..must be even better!!

Big boat and therefore many people. All the guidance was pre-recorded and really hard to hear. Prices on board towering high. At the end of the trip, there was very loud music, not suitable for a trip (Read More) where you want to enjoy nature and beautiful buildings. Along the way, the crew wanted to sell photos where the guests were photographed with a parrot or a lady in costume. Also completely out of place for such a cruise
