Could not understand Cruise annotation even though I sat near the speakers. Stopover at leather shop became an unpleasant experience... hard sell. Ootherwise it was a good tour.

Very well prepared guide. Safe orientated driver on the bus. Well planned activity, though it was a Thursday on which day Dolmabahce Palace is closed and it would have been nice to be alerted when booking the trip, as the date chosen was for a Thursday, or at least to have been written on the description. But it was only mentioned, after paying, on the voucher in small letters! And although the guide took us to a mosque instead, he only informed us if the change in the middle of the trip
