Can I book a shared twinroom for 1 female?

Room sharing is not available. Everyone stays in their own private room. You need to choose the single room option for 1 person.

Is the starting date (June 24) guaranteed? Do Have enough participant signed on? You indicate the pickup airport (SAW), Does that mean you do not pickup from IST and drop at the hotel? On Day 1 (June 24) do i have to book my own hotel? If yes, should i book the hotel near the airport or in the City Center? Do you offer Single supplement? If yes what is the cost? Do you provide vegetarian option? On the last day (June 27), can i be dropped off at the hotel near the airport?

The tour is guaranteed departure. There are 2 airports in Istanbul. Transfer is available from both of these airports. Hotel accommodation will be arranged by us. 3 nights hotel accommodation included in the package. The hotel will be used for this service will be centrally located (Sultanahmet). There is a single supplement for solo travelers. Single room should be chosen at the time of booking. Vegetarian option is available for lunches. The transportation company's license allows for transfers from hotels to airports or other ways. Unfortunately, its allowed for them to arrange a transfer from hotel to hotel. It works as a taxi or UBER.

What time should I arrive at the airport for the tour?

The first day of the tour is arrival. There is no activity. The guest can arrive Istanbul AP any time during the day. The transfer will be arranged by us according to the guest's arrival time.

How long is your full day and half day tour and when it will start and end accordingly we will plan how to utilize the day?

Fullday tours start at 9:00am and ends at 4pm. Halfday tour start at 9am and ends at 12:30pm.

What time is the two Day 4 Tours arrival back at the Hotel? Since they are going on a Cruise can they be dropped off at the PORT rather than the Airport on the return from the Day 4 Tours?

Bosphorus Cruise&Spice Market is a half day tour, start at 9am and ends at 1pm. And yes, we can drop them to the Istanbul Port instead of Airport according to their boarding time.

I am having a lot of trouble with booking tours. Can you please let me know if this is available starting this Saturday 17th? I'm a solo traveller and would like a nice hotel for the duration of the stay.

All the hotels we work for are fully booked until the end of Sep. Unfortunately, we can not provide this service. We will be more than happy if you can skip your travel dates for after 5th oct.

How much will be the rate for us as a couple using the same facilitation, I mean same lift from airport and same hotel room!?. Can we stay longer time on our own and keep the booking for an airport back transit, I mean we postpone it for a later time!?.

Date, 2 Traveller, Double&Twin room should be chosen at the time of booking. You will use the same transfers and hotel room this way. Yes, if you would like to stay in Istanbul longer, you can use airport transfer for a later time.

Breakfast at the hotel was really nice but the room could be bigger. Staffing was nice. The guide on first day was nice but she should have timed out for later one which we didn't have enough time. 2nd day to Princess island was a joke. No horse carriage and the guide took everyone from the boat in one group and they were not coordinated right. We didn't know what he was doing all crowded and didn't guide us. Even getting back to the hotel was a chaos since everyone was waiting for the ride but we weren't told which bus. They need to get a better guide for sure. Also it took us forever to get back from the boat. They just delayed as long as they could so they could sell drinks and food.Show more

Dear Zafar Chaudhary. We are so sad to hear that you didn't have a good time during your visit Istanbul. However, if you read the itinerary carefully, you will notice that this package included 1 Full-Day tour and 1 Half-Day Tour. We are surprisingly shocked that you had more tour expectations. If you would let us know your complaining about the hotel room while you were here, we would be more than happy to upgrade your room. Thank you very much once again for visiting our unique country.
