Superb
Booked this for our anniversary and it exceeded expectations. Would do it again without hesitation. Went as a group of four and everyone was happy.

Istanbul by Riverside: a small-group day
One well-chosen day in Istanbul: two continents, a thousand years of empire and ferries across the strait. Six guests at most, two specialists, and a private version if you would rather have it to yourselves.

About this experience
Most days in Istanbul are spent deciding what to do. This one is already decided: a small group of six, two specialists who know the city, and a day built around the things worth doing rather than the things worth photographing. It finishes with a long lunch somewhere you would not find on your own.

Would book again
Great value for what you get. The small group size made a real difference. Squeezed it in around a work trip and it was worth the time.

Superb
The photos do not do it justice. We spent far longer here than we planned to. Travelled on my own and felt completely comfortable.

Highly recommend
One of the best experiences of our trip. Everything ran on time and the staff were genuinely helpful. The children loved it, which is the real test.
