Certainly an easy and relaxing way to discover Istanbul, with many of the main sites covered through the extensive drop off points. The audio guide which was both informative and interesting, gave deeper insights into each region Would highly recommend.

Worked wonderfully, frequency of 45 min or longer (traffic jam) is a bit long, great driver, pays off in any case to get a first good overview of Istanbul, 1 day is enough, all sights are also easily accessible by streetcar and bus

I liked it overall, a bit more recommendations what to do at the single stops would be helpful though. Otherwise a good way to explore the city!

Very practical and with a great tour. However, avoid the last departure as this is the time of very heavy traffic.

Great experience and amazing view at sunset. Easy to get into the tower with the pre-booked tickets which was great as the queue to buy tickets on the day was very long. Maybe on the more expensive side of what I would pay for this but you get an incredible view of the whole city. Definately go at sunrise/sunset if you can.

Most of the visitation took place in traffic with considerable delay on the route such that the audio guide was considerably ahead of what we were actually seeing.

I think the idea of hop on hop off buses is great. Istanbul is actually a very congested inner city, so you are on the road for a long time and it can be exhausting. The tour is interesting and the audio guides are well spoken in all languages and worth listening to. It was great to drive across the Bosphorus and experience the sights. It's also great to get off and continue. The price is justified in my opinion.

Loved that we rode into Asia Very nice to see all major sights in a few hours Worth it as on your own with the traffic would be impossible

He options offered for the dissatisfaction are way too short and do not include a lot of things. For instance, I have been told the tour lasts for 2.5 hours a roundtrip, but might be a bit longer due to traffic. The trip from Taksim to Naval museum (which is half the tour) lasted for 2.5 hours! Basically the whole trip might have been close to 5 hours. I could not enjoy it due to the timing of the flight 😔

The place where the ticket could be picked up is an illogical place in Istanbul. Logical would be if it were in the port near the ferries

We enjoyed the Panoramic view of the city from this ancient tower. Ticketing was simple. Did not realize the elevator does not go all the way to the top. It is necessary to climb two flights of stairs to get from the top of the elevator too the top viewing area outside the tower. Two of our party had mobility issues and were unable to climb the stairs, So they could only enjoy the views from inside the tower through windows.

Value for money as the bus travelled quite a distance on the full route. Easy to buy tickets online too. Audio commentary was great, giving a snippet of each location.

The first customer support assistant refused us entry but the other three listened in the end that we had issues. Website times different from venue times. Would be good to have an in-person tour guide for authenticity.

For what it is, the price was excessive...not worth the price...view was beautiful and little history but expected to see more artefacts at that price.

Hop-on Hop-offs are always good value. This one was again a great way to spend a day travelling through many of Istanbul's suburbs that we wouldn't have seen by just walking around. The bus was very comfortable and the audio narrative was good.

Bus tour as described but no food or drinks were administered, and twice I was changed the day of the tour I had booked due to events in place but they should know in advance so you don't get booked on days when the service can't be effeected, good guide on board I suggest to include Italian language as well

I was searching for the hop on hop off tour bus in Istanbul. After reading several bad reviews, I was worried about wasting a day touring. I am glad I ignored the bad reviews! It was a great experience for my group. And I really liked the bus feature of the retractable roof for the top deck. It really made a difference. Even with the heavy traffic, most of the busses were on schedule. Thank you.

We saw a lot and understood a lot of interesting facts thanks to the audio guide. You could choose stations and get on and off without any time pressure
