The experience ws ok, but audio wasn't as informative as Hop-On Hop-Off tours I have done in other cities. No anecdotal commentary on the country's culture and people. No announcements for "get off here to see X, Y, Z", etc.

Everything went smoothly from booking to the experience. We always try to do the Hop-on Hop-off bus in every new city to get an overview. Istanbul did not disappoint.

We love this experience, we see some of the most important sights in Instabul and we found explaining in greeks that you doesn't say that it was included and the greeks as language.. We had the combo with the boat and was a very nice experience bothering.

Excellent way to start getting your bearings in Istanbul. You can discover the areas of interest and schedule your visits on foot afterwards. The service, first class...
