Fantastic 5.0
Gettig this card was one of best decisions. it was delivered to our hotel, the transfer service made contact prior and the rest was easy peasy. Used on the trams, metro to get to some great places. Highly recommended if you want to see many parts of Istanbul in a short time.

Our family had a fantastic trip to Bursa and Uludağ, and everything was well-organized from start to finish. We were picked up at 8:00 AM and returned to our hotel at 10:30 PM, making it a full and memorable day. Our tour guide was very friendly and managed the time perfectly. We were delighted to experience snowfall on Uludağ Mountain, which made the day even more special. Throughout the tour, we visited several wonderful places including the ATV area, a Turkish delight factory, the impressive 610-year-old Inkaya Historical Plane Tree, a charming jam shop, and enjoyed a fun chairlift experience. The teleferik ride from Uludağ down to Bursa city was unforgettable, and we also appreciated the visit to the beautiful Green Mosque. We had a great lunch along the way, and overall, it was an amazing, well-planned trip that our whole family truly enjoyed.

Baris was the best! Super informative, patient, and full of great energy — we managed to see so many beautiful spots in just a few hours. It felt like exploring the city with a friend who knows all its secrets!

A very practical package that doesn't require queuing. You can enter and visit directly, saving time and convenience. For Topkapi Palace, just go to the designated meeting point, and a guide will lead you. It's very smooth, and the audio guide is also reasonably clear. Recommended!

Great 4.0
Everything was amazing! Lunch was skipped which was not expected, but we had dinner instead. The travel to and fro is quite lengthy. We left the hotel at 8:30am and only reached back at the hotel at 12:30am, it was really tiring so be prepared. Customers from the old town to bound to be picked up first, hence spent 2 hours just to pick up people in the new town and drop them off.

The journey from Istanbul to Cannakale is quite long (4 hr) each way. No breakfast/dinner is provided, but driver will stop mid-journey for breakfast/dinner break. The tour guide - Ms. Cindi is very knowledgeable. She brought us through the history of Troy with humour and highlight interesting facts. There is a small museum shop near the entrance that worth checking out.

Thoroughly enjoyed my Balat & Fener walk with Yunus. He made the whole experience so well paced and manageable especially that one hike up the hill. He was also so knowledgeable about the history and very relatable as well. Made for a fun and active day!! Thanks Yunus!!!
