Usually in the various hop on hop off that I have taken in various cities around the world the buses passed every 10-15 minutes maximum, allowing you to get off to see an attraction and get back on sh (Read More)ortly after, seeing lots of things. In Istanbul unfortunately the buses pass every hour and therefore you can't see more than one or two stops, also because with so few buses and so many people it is practically impossible once you get off to find a seat on the upper deck again, and below it is very difficult. So I spent two days sitting for the entire tour (2h30) getting off only once to see the Galata Tower. It's really a shame, it would be enough to add two or three buses to solve the situation.

The tour was great, only the one-hour intervals are too long

The information was vague most of the time your not sure what building are being talked about. NO water was service. And my booking stated that water and snacks will be available for free. The informa (Read More)tion about each place was vague, if we have not been with other tour guides in the city I would not have known half of the places. And Istanbul have such a rich historical culture. The Bosphorus cruise was full of information and way better for the price.
