Excellent
Would do it again in a heartbeat. Much appreciated that lunch at Eceabat is included. Everything ran on time and was well organised. If only every tour were run like this.

Cumple con lo que ofrece. Que venga con desayuno y almuerzo lo hace más completo. La comida estuvo muy rica y las porciones generosas. El salón de Europa es una joya en sí mismo. El postre fue lo más flojo de la cena. Lo recomiendo, con las aclaraciones que hice.

Nos encantó
Simplemente perfecto. Estambul es de otro planeta. Totalmente recomendado.

Good option
Very good, just short of excellent. We got a clear day at Europe and that was pure luck. Take sunscreen and water, the sun is fierce. I would have preferred less transfer time and more time on site. I do recommend it, with the caveats above.
Olivia V.
Good, with caveats
Very good overall. Photos of Estambul Loop do not do it justice. Everything ran on time and was well organised. There was no toilet available on one leg of the route. I would do it again anyway.

A wonderful experience
Delivered everything it promised and then some. The air-Conditioned Transportation (NOT PUBLIC BUS) sorted everything. The group was not huge, which made it much more comfortable. The driver drove carefully the whole way.
