Boa experiência, com um detalhe que vale saber antes. O guia conduziu bem o grupo. O guia em espanhol foi bem pensado. Preferiria menos tempo de deslocamento e mais no lugar. Tem o que melhorar, mas não me arrependo.

Excellent from start to finish. The free pick up and drop-off service from city center hotels in European part of the city sorted everything. The return time was kept to the minute. I have already recommended it to two friends travelling next month.

Superou o que esperávamos. Muito bom incluir guia em espanhol. Pegamos um dia limpo em Turkish e foi muita sorte. Mandamos uma dúvida no WhatsApp e responderam em minutos. A volta atrasou quase uma hora em relação ao previsto. Recomendaria a qualquer um que visite Estambul.

Absolutely worth every penny. Estambul justifies the early start. The equipment arrived exactly when we needed it. For what we paid, it is exceptional value. The group was small, which made it all much calmer. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Estambul.

So glad we booked this. The talk at Estambul Beer really stayed with us. We changed the date two days ahead with no fuss. If we come back to Estambul, we will do it again.

Muy recomendable
Simplemente perfecto. Sale más que hacerlo suelto, pero te ahorra toda la organización. Si volvemos a Estambul, lo repetimos.
