Would like this as a private tour for my client (2 adults, 1 infant), but would also like to add 5 days in Marmaris - private villa with views and close to center. Also driver at marmaris. Would like to have marmaris first then istanbul. Could you also accommodate transportation between cities? Also if you could add some activities at Marmaris? Please note they have a baby so activities need to be accommodating this.

We have received your private tour request, will check and reply to you as soon as possible.

Are there INCL. BOAT TICKET in day 3? Can I choose a hotel in Center of Istanbul? It is VERY important the group is MAX. 15 people - can you guarantee?

Yes, the boat ticket is included on Day 3. Group will consist of a Maximum of 15 people. We use Recital Hotel Sultanahmet or Antea Hotel Old City (depending on availability) in our packages, which are very close to the tour sites and are considered to be in the Old City Center.

Do we SEE east & west meet - on the Bosporus cruise? Incl. the price?

The Bosphorus is the body of water splitting the east and west, so you would be able to see both sides while on the cruise.

Can I please have a quote for a solo traveler departing 10/27/24? What nights include hotel and does the tour include transport to and from the airport please?

The tour includes pick-up from and drop-off at the airport.
