Things to do in Turkey

The hot air balloon guide was fantastic! High energy throughout the ride, and even though it was my first time and i was slightly nervous, his excitement and confidence helped ease the nerves. 10/10 would recommend and go again! superb experience for a good price in June!! The flight was 1hr plus and it was worth it definitely. Thank you skyway for the wonderful experience. I would recommend this provider for your hot air balloon ride. Just do it.

OMG, Istanbul never fails to amaze! 🤯🇹🇷 The Basilica Cistern is an extraordinary underground reservoir hidden right beneath the bustling streets. Stepping inside feels completely otherworldly. 😍💧 The dim lighting, water reflections, and endless rows of towering columns create such a captivating and mysterious vibe. 🏛️✨ The absolute highlight was finding the famous Medusa heads! 🐍👀 Seeing them positioned sideways and upside down adds so much mystery—Greek mythology meeting ancient engineering. It’s breathtaking how well this marvel has survived. 🎟️ Pro Tip: Definitely buy your tickets online in advance! It saves you from massive queues. Skip-the-line options usually include an audio guide, which is perfect for exploring at your own pace. 🎧 Don’t just stick to the palaces and mosques above ground—you have to venture underground too! 😂💧 Kesinlikle görülmeye değer! (Definitely worth seeing!) ❤️✨

Visiting Hagia Sophia was the main purpose of this trip. It was a shame that both the exterior and interior were under renovation. Nevertheless, it was truly wonderful to experience the profound historical significance of this cultural heritage site, with its frescoes and even graffiti from when it was used as a mosque after being an Orthodox church, all preserved as they were. Although there's a mobile Japanese audio guide, I had to infer a lot because many parts of the AI voice's Japanese were incomprehensible. The speaking speed was also slow, so I set it to 1.5x speed, which made it sound normal. Still, I believe you can't talk about sightseeing in Istanbul without seeing Hagia Sophia. I'm glad I went.

The trainers were great, very kind and helpful. my horse Sultan was a huge brown female horse, but she was kind and would walk slowly for me. although it can be a little scary for a first timer, it is worth the experience. the instructors helped us throughout the way and took for us pictures and videos. super worth it. thank you to yasin, ahmed, and majeed for all your help! it lasted more than 2 hours so super worth your money!!

Awesome ferry ride. Was not expecting this level of awesomeness from just a simple boat ride. for those who wish to experience both Europe and Asia side, this ride is for you. But bring a jacket though as it gets very windy. Overall, POWEEEEER!

A truly fascinating place to visit. It features beautiful architecture and stunning interior decor from the Ottoman Empire era. You would be missing out if you didn't visit! Book via Klook for a great price and easy entry.

Convenience: It was easy to book, and using it was convenient too, as I just had to show the voucher code for immediate entry. Included Activities: It was great to experience a variety of activities, but I wish more passes were available for popular tourist areas like Cappadocia and Antalya. I used three passes: Basilica Cistern, Cappadocia Cave Dinner Show, and Pamukkale. If you choose the fast-track option for Basilica Cistern, you get in really quickly; the regular line was too long. Also, download the audio guide beforehand and listen to it at your accommodation. Even if you download it, once you're on-site, the data connection might drop midway, and it's too chaotic with so many tourists to concentrate anyway, haha. And the complimentary cruise was really good! However, for the unlimited drinks package, the seats are in the center, so you can't sit by the edge; those seats are reserved for people who booked with a meal. But I was satisfied because going downstairs to the first floor after the boat departed and standing outside was cooler, offered better views, and made for great photos.

An absolutely beautiful sunrise experience in Cappadocia! Watching the hot air balloons fill the sky while horse riding was truly magical and something we’ll always remember. The tour was well worth it and made for some unforgettable views and memories. A special mention to Atif from Afghanistan, who guided my horse. He was extremely friendly, helpful, and made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cappadocia! 🐎🎈

Buying the Hagia Sophia and Basilica Cistern combo ticket this time was very convenient. Purchasing in advance on Klook saved time waiting in line for tickets on-site. Both attractions are well worth visiting; the lighting and overall atmosphere of the Basilica Cistern are especially unique, and walking through it in person is even more breathtaking than the photos. The Hagia Sophia is also magnificent and great for first-time visitors to Istanbul. Advance ticket purchase is recommended!

The atmosphere was absolutely wonderful. The snacks focused on pastries and fruits. The views on both sides of the water were incredibly beautiful, encompassing both the European and Asian shores. The boat sailed slowly near the lighthouse in the middle of the water.

We first met at a pub and then headed to Topkapi Palace together, which was a fun and unique way to start the tour! 😆 It was raining, so walking around and exploring the palace was a little difficult, but somehow that made the experience even more memorable and fun. ☔️🇹🇷 We joined the 3 PM tour, but it felt a little rushed toward the end. If you want to explore Topkapi Palace more comfortably and have enough time to see everything, I’d definitely recommend choosing an earlier tour!

It was smooth, exciting, with the right amount of time to spend, as well as some given free time to explore the sites. The attractions are close together, which made the rides enjoyable. I liked that it wasn't a big group. My tour guide, Rabía, is great, professional, informative, and she always checked on us. I really appreciated her. The buffet-style lunch was fresh and tasty. Just one thing was out of the itinerary written here: we had a quick stop for a complimentary Turkish food and coffee tasting session at a store, which I didn't mind because I didn't feel any pressure to shop. It was lovely that they offered you a deal after the tasting and prior to your browsing at the store. The customer service team of this tour was good as well, and the response time was reasonably quick. I do encourage you to reach out to them first about the arrangement via the contact info they provided here.
