      Traveler•Written June 2022

      we plan to go towards the end of September for 4 adults. I saw a C$1,399 for a 10 day tour that starts from Istanbul and back with a 4 star hotel. is it possible that we can stay at the same hotel 2 days before and 2 days after the tour and if it is also possible for pick up and drop off from airport and hotel be included? How much would be the additional cost?

    • Serendipity Tours TurkeyOperator•Written June 2022

      We can book you hotels rooms before and after the tour. The cost of a double room in Istanbul is 115$ USD including breakfast and tax. The cost of one way airport transfer is 50$ USD for 4 people.
