Customer Reviews
There was everything that the tourists are looking for. Pharmacies, restaurants, giftshops, etc.
The tour was not crowded. The guide was so funny. But the place we went was crowded . If you do not like the crowd,this might not be a good option for you. But we discover a lot of things that we cannot see on our own. I recommend it.
Divan Yolu is at the center of touristic attractions. It is very close to Sultanahmet . Definitely one of the best areas. Simply fantastic!
