    Asked on August 28th, 2022

    Hello there, its fantastic that you also offer airport pickup with it! I'll be arriving in Istanbul on the 14th and will be a solo traveller for about 4 or 5 days till I meet up with a friend in Goreme on the 19th.. so having a tour group straight away would be perfect for me, as well as the airport pick-up.

      Heather

      Traveler•Written August 2022

      I'm going to book and am happy to twin share if I can, but I can only book as a so traveller. If there is someone else who would like to share, would you keep that in mind for me as it is quite a big jump in price as a solo traveller?

    • City of SultansOperator•Written August 2022

      We do not provide twin share for single travellers. You should book the tour by adding the Single Room supplement, and you will have a Single room at the hotel.
