    Ronald

    Asked on May 11th, 2026

    I am trying to connect regarding my turkey tour leaving Istanbul May 16. There are no options for me to add accommodation details. We are staying at grand hilarium Istanbul May 15 and would like to take advantage of the earl spice market tour on May 16. I am currently on another tour on the Nile with TourRadar. They have changed our itinerary and we have had to change hotel bookings. I would appreciate if this email could be acknowledged as there is no reply option on the messages I receive from you.

      Traveler•Written May 2026

      We're in Cairo. We had our TourRadar in Egypt extended by the travel company. We had to change flights. We have arrived in Istanbul. As we are travelling from 1 TourRadar trip to another I think it would be fair to have airport transfers. It would be very helpful.
