It was an excellent tours although it was windy and therefore missed out our Hot Air Balloon Tour. Didam, the tour guide was excellent and look forward to return back for the Hot Air Balloon and other package.

Great Experience

18-Oct-2019

I am so glad I picked this tour during my stay in Istanbul. There were so many different highlights from start to finish. The tour guide was very informative and the tour wouldn’t have been the same without the extra information being provided every step of the way. The views were extraordinary and the landmarks were all fascinating and well put together. It was also great being picked up and dropped off at my hotel in Istanbul. I am a very fussy eater but I have to say that even the meals that are included in this package cannot be faulted in any way. The hotels provided were also well presented and very clean I will definitely be booking more tours with tour Altinkum the next time I go to turkey.
