Winter is a wonderful guide: kind, informative, and funny! He showed me around the spice market and I had so much fun trying different snacks and learning about the food culture in Xian. If I had been there on my own, I am sure I would have felt a bit intimidated to ask shopkeepers about their products. That\'s where Winter came to the rescue and answered all my questions, or asked the locals for me! The locals at the market seem to like him a lot as well. 
After the market, we went to a beautiful local restaurant/Baiju tavern where we hung out for a while and drank some delicious tea. Then a local chef gave me a lesson on how to make these awesome Biang Biang noodles. It was challenging but so much fun, and very rewarding in the end. Enjoy the noodles with bites of raw garlic, like a local! It gives it a nice kick!
When I visit a new city, I usually try to book myself these types of tours, and one thing I really appreciated about this one was that Winter was totally relaxed and really just felt like a friend whom I had come to visit. I\'ve noticed that some tours can feel rehearsed/forced and although they are super nice, sometimes you can feel that the host is just \"doing his job.\" Well, not this one! If you meet Winter, and spend the day with him, I am sure you will know what I mean. Book this tour if you want a really cool and fun experience, and if you want to make a friend in Xian.

Winter is a wonderful guide: kind, informative, and funny! He showed me around the spice market and I had so much fun trying different snacks and learning about the food culture in Xian. If I had been there on my own, I am sure I would have felt a bit intimidated to ask shopkeepers about their products. That\'s where Winter came to the rescue and answered all my questions, or asked the locals for me! The locals at the market seem to like him a lot as well. 
After the market, we went to a beautiful local restaurant/Baiju tavern where we hung out for a while and drank some delicious tea. Then a local chef gave me a lesson on how to make these awesome Biang Biang noodles. It was challenging but so much fun, and very rewarding in the end. Enjoy the noodles with bites of raw garlic, like a local! It gives it a nice kick!
When I visit a new city, I usually try to book myself these types of tours, and one thing I really appreciated about this one was that Winter was totally relaxed and really just felt like a friend whom I had come to visit. I\'ve noticed that some tours can feel rehearsed/forced and although they are super nice, sometimes you can feel that the host is just \"doing his job.\" Well, not this one! If you meet Winter, and spend the day with him, I am sure you will know what I mean. Book this tour if you want a really cool and fun experience, and if you want to make a friend in Xian.

Winter is a wonderful guide: kind, informative, and funny! He showed me around the spice market and I had so much fun trying different snacks and learning about the food culture in Xian. If I had been there on my own, I am sure I would have felt a bit intimidated to ask shopkeepers about their products. That\'s where Winter came to the rescue and answered all my questions, or asked the locals for me! The locals at the market seem to like him a lot as well. 
After the market, we went to a beautiful local restaurant/Baiju tavern where we hung out for a while and drank some delicious tea. Then a local chef gave me a lesson on how to make these awesome Biang Biang noodles. It was challenging but so much fun, and very rewarding in the end. Enjoy the noodles with bites of raw garlic, like a local! It gives it a nice kick!
When I visit a new city, I usually try to book myself these types of tours, and one thing I really appreciated about this one was that Winter was totally relaxed and really just felt like a friend whom I had come to visit. I\'ve noticed that some tours can feel rehearsed/forced and although they are super nice, sometimes you can feel that the host is just \"doing his job.\" Well, not this one!

Winter is a wonderful guide: kind, informative, and funny! He showed me around the spice market and I had so much fun trying different snacks and learning about the food culture in Xian. If I had been there on my own, I am sure I would have felt a bit intimidated to ask shopkeepers about their products. That\'s where Winter came to the rescue and answered all my questions, or asked the locals for me! The locals at the market seem to like him a lot as well. 
After the market, we went to a beautiful local restaurant/Baiju tavern where we hung out for a while and drank some delicious tea. Then a local chef gave me a lesson on how to make these awesome Biang Biang noodles. It was challenging but so much fun, and very rewarding in the end. Enjoy the noodles with bites of raw garlic, like a local! It gives it a nice kick!
When I visit a new city, I usually try to book myself these types of tours, and one thing I really appreciated about this one was that Winter was totally relaxed and really just felt like a friend whom I had come to visit. I\'ve noticed that some tours can feel rehearsed/forced and although they are super nice, sometimes you can feel that the host is just \"doing his job.\" Well, not this one! If you meet Winter, and spend the day with him, I am sure you will know what I mean. Book this tour if you want a really cool and fun experience, and if you want to make a friend in Xian.

Winter is a wonderful guide: kind, informative, and funny! He showed me around the spice market and I had so much fun trying different snacks and learning about the food culture in Xian. If I had been there on my own, I am sure I would have felt a bit intimidated to ask shopkeepers about their products. That\'s where Winter came to the rescue and answered all my questions, or asked the locals for me! The locals at the market seem to like him a lot as well. 
After the market, we went to a beautiful local restaurant/Baiju tavern where we hung out for a while and drank some delicious tea. Then a local chef gave me a lesson on how to make these awesome Biang Biang noodles. It was challenging but so much fun, and very rewarding in the end. Enjoy the noodles with bites of raw garlic, like a local! It gives it a nice kick!
When I visit a new city, I usually try to book myself these types of tours, and one thing I really appreciated about this one was that Winter was totally relaxed and really just felt like a friend whom I had come to visit. I\'ve noticed that some tours can feel rehearsed/forced and although they are super nice, sometimes you can feel that the host is just \"doing his job.\" Well, not this one!

The tour is great for vegetarians, and, even for those with other allergies. I can\'t eat gluten, and Ocean was very helpful in identifying food that I could eat (there was more than I thought!) I didn\'t expect to eat at all and I was a bit unsure of how the tour would be if I couldn\'t eat, but she was so helpful. When making spring rolls at a local stall she had the woman put a bunch of vegetables and some sauces in a plastic bag for me to eat instead of wrapping it in the wheat wrapper. We couldn\'t have imagined a better tour. The tea was also a highlight! It\'s hard to even pick the best part!

We learned about the various local produce,meats and spices. And, many people purchased items to take home with them.We all had a great time learning the tricks and tips of cooking this SPECIAL noodles of China. And, sitting down to enjoy the fruits of our labor was also quite a delight.

But after emailing to them on the 8th December and 20 days later... No acknowledgement... I see it fit to share publicly our experience... 

On Sunday 6th December @20:00, I made a reservation for two people for Midra 60... This was an anniversary celebration gift for my husband and I...

On receipt of the reservation email, it informed us to be at reception at 19:30 for dress room formalities... AT NO POINT was it stipulated that the appointment starts at 19:30... On walking in... The lady said our treatment starts now 19:35 and showed us to the changing rooms... There were delays in the changing rooms... From access to the toilet and time to change into our bathing costumes, taking us about 10 minutes to get out... I AM NOT IN AGREEMENT WITH THE THERAPY starting the moment we walk pass the curtains but instead on arrival at the actual hammam or at 20:00 as indicated from the reservation made...

Further to that the website advises hammam bath 45 min, FOLLOWED By body scrub, foam and massage... Mint tea included... The head Therapist or host dressed in white, did not even tell us the formalities of which or what treatments would be happening and what time... She lacked in communicating clearly and showing us the facility services and how the pools work or if we were even first time visitors... She simply indicated to go downstairs, after exiting the change rooms. On arriving downstairs, we enter into the pools, barely 5 minutes in when the massage therapists come to look for us saying we are suppose to be with them... No one explained this to us... So we were under the assumption we had 45 min in the pools... From this moment on everyone was in a rush... Also it makes no sense to have a body scrub, foam wash and oil massage and then enter the hammam pools... entering into them with the body oils... Where is the hygiene in this... And the point to wash off the oil and then open up pores again... With all of this being said... We went along despite sharing our objections and confusion from what is outlined in the website with the massage therapists... And we were simply hoping that this doesn\'t dip into the time in the pools later... But of course it did... As we only got 20 minutes in the pools later... Before being summoned by the head lady... And after sharing with her that it can\'t be time up... She argued that it is what it is... from the starts at 19:35 and now it was 21:05... And we can take it up with them upstairs... She exercised NO CUSTOMER CENTRICITY... 

The hammam experience can be much more enjoyable... If you take into account the pitfalls of our experience... The massage therapists were amazing... And the pools and setting look amazing too... But the head lady... Should be sent on a workshop to speak with people better and communicate clearly with everyone on what to expect... She should\'ve also pointed out where to have the famous mint tea... As we had none... And the time of 90 minutes should kick in when we enter the hammam... Also there should be clocks around so we can see the time in and across each activity... Or wrist bands to track entry into the hammam showing time and across each treatment... I share with you my feedback in the hope that you will make changes for future clients to have a better experience...

This post was emailed directly to the complaints department and NO ONE contacted us in this regard... This shows and tells me that even the management lacks in customer centricity... Extremely disappointed in the lack of accountability by the management...',1.0,'2020-12-28T07:27:11Z','REV-chefjZ9aTYljbUTRQYA5q5yUiKy1SGx08zpavxo2xj0=','en','renita234','TRIPADVISOR'),('5823ARABATHS','Arabian Baths Experience at Madrid&#039;s Hammam Al &Aacute;ndalus with 45 minutes massage','Warm bath and warm reception','This is a very unique experience and I loved it.

I was not claustrophobic but felt like I needed extra time to get my breath and go under. My guide (red-head with mustache) was amazing and didn\'t make me feel pressured.
They explain that you may need to hold your nose and blow - to clear/pop your ears.  I had to do this a few times as we would go deep and shallow throughout the dive.  Each person has an individual guide with you.  Although I was the one who found this excursion and understood it said \"scooter,\' I completely forgot to propel myself to see other areas!

The rest of the group all followed directions and went where they wanted.  They only had to show me once to squeeze the bread to make the animals/fish come closer.  
My youngest daughter who was 13 felt like she was too short to sit, and placed her feet on the seat of the scooter; like a squat.  She loved every minute of it as well.
On the way back, my guide stopped me and pointed out 2 sea turtles! I got to see it within a foot from my face.  Others in my group got to see an octopus and even have it placed on their sub.

I understand that improvement is an ongoing process, but compared to the flawless performances of other artists in Branson, the standard is high. 

While some acts felt familiar, others were unique and captivating, but a few lacked finesse and excitement.

Firstly the communication by the Turkish tour operator was dire, no comms whatsoever, I had to get Viator to obtain information about pick up times and my hotel in Istanbul to confirm details. The pick up on the morning of the tour did arrive on time, I was taken to a meeting point (car park) and advised which coach I would be joining for the main tour ... so far so good. We embarked the coach and our tour guide introduced himself”Berlout”?  He advised that the tour would be in English and Spanish as we had mixed nationalities ... no problem I thought, how wrong was I....
The tour processed, hardly any commentary of local knowledge and facts, we were transported between A and B and basically self guided. 
The Bosphorus sailing was good, thankfully the boat had English commentary as the guide sat with the Spanish speaking guests for the entire journey, he only asked as we disembarked if there was anything I would like to know. As I was only sitting 2 rows ahead of him and travelling alone, it would have been courteous to ask me that question whilst we were sailing. We then proceeded to a leather shop for the usual big sell, unsurprisingly nobody bought anything. 
Lunch came next, usual tourist fayre at a coach stop restaurant, food was pretty good to be honest and service was fast and efficient. 
Next we headed to the palace, sadly very rushed, we were supposed to be there 2 hours but completed the sprint around in 1.5 hours, again very limited commentary, thank goodness for Google. Such a shame as this is the highlight of the tour, a stunning palace with so much history. 
We then proceeded to the view point, what a total waste of time. The view is not the best, a 5 minute photo opportunity would have been acceptable but no ... we had to stay 45 minutes whilst our guide talked to the Spanish guests over coffee ... deep sigh
Thankfully the tour concluded, the price included hotel drop offs and I was more than ready to return my hotel in the old town. It transpired all the other tour guests were staying on the Asian side and I was the sole guest staying on the European side. The driver dropped the guests off at their respective hotels on the Asian side and then asked me if I would like to get off at Istikal street (main shopping street on the Asian side) and make my way back to the hotel on my own so they didn’t have to bother taking one passenger back. I politely said no thank you and said I needed to go back to my hotel. Just for info, if I had disembarked where asked, it would have taken 55 minutes to walk to the hotel and cross the Bosphorus again or pay for local transport to get me back. Quite a daunting prospect for a single female traveller ...

We didn\'t get what we paid for and we expect you to refund our money to us.  Instead of going to Dolombache Palace he said he is going to take us to Topkapi (which is not in our programe), I told him that we already paid for Topkapi and  we do not want to see Topkapi twice.. I have asked when he is going to take us to Camlica hill Istanbul he said he is not going to take us. I told him but we paid for this to go and see the view of Istanbul from Camilica.

Our pickup was at 8:30am from our hotel in Beşiktaş.  We travelled by van to a centralized meeting location.  It was not until about 9:45am that we left for the Blue Mosque followed by Hagia Sofia.  The Blue Mosque was quite impressive, but limited details or unique knowledge was presented.  Hagia Sofia on the other side of the plaza was more impressive and our tour guide provided more details.

Following the Hagia Sofia, the sales pitch began.  We went to a \'certified Turkish rug\' store and got the full sales pitch.  Having visited the Grand Bazaar the day before, we realized how incredibly over-priced the rugs were.  Tip - Go on your own and haggle on prices until you get a price you like.  Do not accept the first, second, or third price.  There are hundreds of vendors, so someone will have the rug you want at a fair price.

Next, our tour took us to the Grand Bazaar.  Our tour included exactly two shops next to each other where the tour guide most likely was getting commissions on what was sold.  It was too setup to be a \'casual walk\' through the grand bazaar.

The best part of the morning was Hagia Sofia and walking through the streets.

The afternoon tour was following a preset lunch.  Decent, nothing incredible.  Our afternoon tour include a Bosphorus Tour and a visit to Pierre Loti Hill.  I appreciate the organization, but neither tour was unqique.  Many options exist for a Bosphorus Tour.

Unnecessary 2 hour rides to get to the port that is only 2 blocks away from the hotel followed by a total of 40 min on the Bosphorus with limited explanation that is marketed as a 4.5 hour guided cruise.

Booked the tour online where it states to be a 4.5 hour Cruise. It is only 40 min. You decide if this is a scam.
1. We were scheduled to be picked up at 1 PM from our hotel in Besiktas. No one showed at 1 PM. We called the operator and was told to wait for 15-20 min. The van indeed showed up at 1:20PM.
2. After 30 min, we were driven to a chaotic street on a hill near Cagaloglu. Only to be told to switch to a different van. The van was parked on the left side of the street, with cars running on the right side. We had to proceed to the next van with care to not become a road kill!!! It is literally the worst place possible to organize groups of people to switch van.
3. After a 20 min wait and another 30 min ride in Istanbul traffic, we were driven to the port, which is located in Besiktas, only 2 blocks away from our hotel. 
4. At 3:20 PM we are joined with guests from other tour groups to board the cruise. Yes, we are not on the boat yet after near 2 h from the stated staring time (1:45PM).
5. There are a total of about only 40 guests. The boat can host about 300 people. Everyone can stay on the left side (port side) to get a nice view. The boat is in reasonable shape. Nothing fancy. I think it is just one of the commuter boat here that is normally used to transport people across Bosphorus. The cruise run eastwards passing two bridges and make a u-turn. There are random narrative during the cruise to explain what is what with occasion historical background. 60% of those are along the line \"that white building was a palace of Sultan/Empire ABC and now a XYZ hotel\". The speaker is not clear and hard to hear. Meanwhile, there are vendors on the boat selling you drinks and food. The vendors can be so loud that their voice cover the loud speaker. There was hardly much explanation when we are facing the Asia side. We were back to the port at around 4:00 PM.
6. That was it, no mentioning of the cable car at all. We declined the offer to get a ride back to our hotel. We did not want another 2 h adventure we just had when we were picked up earlier as we could have just walked from our hotel in 20 min.
7. The tour guide\'s English skill is above average in Istanbul. He knows more words and can piece them together to almost make a sentence.

We paid about $13 OOP per person after coupon discount. This trip is most definitely not worth the $38 listed price. I guess you get what you paid for. Yet I doubt you will get a better experience if you pay the full $38 without coupon.

Scheduled departure was 20:20 but the boat did not leave until 21:10.

Costs can vary from agent to agent.
I paid US $ 92, which includes pick up and drop from and to hotel. They ask for you hotel details while booking. 

After you have booked your confirmation can come with a note informing you that your hotel is not in the city limits so pls find your way to the pier. For a first time visitor this can be very daunting although most taxi drivers know the city well and the ride can vary in cost depending on what route the taxi driver takes. So watch out for tour operator, I took the one which was recommended by TripAdvisor. 

Once the pier is reached the boat is easy to find. But apart identifying its highly over rated. 

Very poor seating arrangement, table meant for six people had seat eight, very tight squeeze with no room left to maneuver. All 4 people had to get up and move out for last one to visit the toilet.
Air conditioning was very poor / inadequate consider the  tour operator had people packed in like sardines. 

Salads and starters were pre laid very unprofessionally. Alcoholic beverages were unlimited but that is probably the reason for price difference.

The open upper decks are highly recommended as that’s where it really happens. By the time you have had a couple of drinks every thing begins to look different and one stops looking at short comings. 

Istanbul is blessed with natural beauty and the cruise by itself is A Must but for cold food and very poorly organized trip.',2.0,'2018-08-27T14:46:34Z','REV-eFA2owYrDtLHxI+YSO7Md68Qj0BjYb++htTmbYFMHzU=','en','Deepak M','TRIPADVISOR'),('5828BOSPHORUS','Istanbul Bosphorus Cruise with Dinner and Belly-Dancing Show','Avoid this tour.

Many of the people on the bus had also been on a tour in the morning and were not that mobile and the weather was not great so possibly the tour was shorter than usual.</p>',3.0,'2014-11-16T11:24:32Z','REV-ZINzlN2dc2AlRVQy1kauRIXU/a48chrbfdax19evxL8=','en','Anne M','VIATOR'),('5828BYZANTIUMHIST','Semi Private - Constantinople Tour of Istanbul: Discovering the Byzantine Empire','The tour was great!

The rest of the day was spent at a leisurely pace mainly on the Kadakoy side we took a ferry across wandering through the market area trying different foods along the way. My favourite was a store that sold mussels done two ways, lightly battered and fried, and also stuffed, yum! By lunchtime we had arrived at Ciya Sofressi, a restaurant written up in foodie magazines around the world. Already fairly full by this time we couldn\'t do it justice but did enjoy the very tasty kebabs. As there were only two of us on the tour with our guides we felt it might not be relaxing, but by the end of the day we felt that we had made new friends. A big thank you to Bulut and Mimet for a wonderful day!</p>',5.0,'2015-03-25T07:00:13Z','REV-Rorjh938ilKMfa9hbBH3C4XU/a48chrbfdax19evxL8=','en','Richard L','VIATOR'),('5828KADIKOYY','Private Tour - Istanbul Food Walking Tour of Kadikoy with Breakfast','Wife and I really liked this tour as...','<p>Wife and I really liked this tour as it enabled us to see the kadikoy side which was so much more enjoyable because of it\'s food, people and general chilled out vibe.

She said it was a must visit and I agree. Very authentic and tasty. Also, the baklava was the best I\'ve ever tasted in my life! The tour guide was also very knowledgable and friendly. I cannot say enough good things about this tour. If you are a foodie this tour is for you! I will say that the tour seems a bit pricey, because the tastings don\'t cost very much, but I enjoyed the tour so much that I didn\'t mind the price.</p>',5.0,'2014-09-17T04:38:35Z','REV-DHdvBTpUgqrCadPz/b1UOYXU/a48chrbfdax19evxL8=','en','Anika D','VIATOR'),('5828GOLDENHORN','Semi Private Tour - Golden Horn and Miniaturk Park Tour in Istanbul','i couldnt go on this tour as there...','<p>i couldnt go on this tour as there werent enough people to fill it.

If you have only one day to spare away from Istanbul, take the short flight to Izmir and see one of the true wonders of the ancient world. Having said that, be very critical of the travel agency you pick to get you to Ephesus. We selected Plan Tours and, in hindsight, we should have gone with another company. Keep in mind that the company that arranges your intra-Turkish air will most likely not be the tour agency that actually conducts the tour of Ephesus, which in our case was a good thing. Plan Tours picked us up at 5:15 AM and then unbeknownst to us took us to the wrong airport. NOTE: check your travel docs because there are two airports in Istanbul (IST and SAW), and they are, at minimum, an hour apart. We discovered after we attempted to check-in at the gate for our 8:00 AM flight that the driver had taken us to the wrong airport. We tried in vain for almost an hour to get anyone at Plan Tours to answer their phone. The only reply was a voicemail stating that someone would be in the office at 7:30 AM, a mere 30 minutes before our flight. To salvage our trip we acted quickly and booked another regional flight to Izmir at additional cost in hopes making it to Izmir to meet up with the Ephesus tour. We arrived 45 minutes behind schedule. Castle Tours in Izmir did an amazing job of picking us up at the airport and linking us with our tour group, which was already underway. We missed seeing the Temple of Artemis, but we did make it to the city of Ephesus, which was extraordinary. The rest of the day played out as planned. After returning to home to Germany, we engaged Plan Tours about a refund for the plane tickets lost due to the logistical mistake as well as the the plane tickets purchased to offset being sent to the wrong airport. In the end, we had to engage Viator to get Plan Tours to refund 20% of the cost. As we explained to both Viator and Plan Tours, if we hadn\'t taken the initiative and bought the new airfare to offset being taken to the wrong airport, we would be seeking a full refund for the entire trip. In the end, please heed our warnings and check your itineraries to ensure logistical details, like airport codes, are correct and think about how you might anticipate and/or offset logistical snafu\'s,, like non-responsive emergency contacts.',3.0,'2019-11-13T03:33:15Z','REV-h7u0TI2pIDCyz9EMAUPnXhORcp78xfFvnaGm6GROkuA=','en','darryj2016','TRIPADVISOR'),('5828P23','Istanbul Gold Combo','very good tour especially for those on...','<p>very good tour especially for those on very limited time/ days in Istanbul.

Hakan is a gourmet cook and writer. A well spoken highly educated businessman who has great interest in his country and its diversity. He was educated in the states and Britain and he really caters and delivers. Aicha is equally highly educated passionate guide and was genuinely trying to make the tour as enjoyable as possible. And it was! I know a little bit about the turkish cuisine but I was quite surprised by what they offered. First, we walked the surreal Istiklal Street and went through the back door of a very old well known restaurant where a salted chicken was being served litterally on fire. Quite a show. We tasted some exquisite kebab and Humus with \" bastirma\" served with freshly baked bread and Sherbet. We continued on istiklal and tasted some delights from another old establishment. In between, we stopped at a couple of churches and had some history background of the area. We went through the fish market and stopped at a restaurant offering black sea cuisine. Very very interesting. Hamsli Pilaf, some warm marinated vegetables, special dolmades and corn bread. Very very tasty. We went through the flower passage with its cafes and night life. We then went to another old establishment to eat special clotted cream and pastries. It was then time for coffee which I declined in favor of turkish tea. This was enjoyed on the terrace of a very ancient hotel. Last we visited a well known opulent hotel where Ataturk used to stay. You can visit his room in the morning. And then it was time for the final stop at the terrace of another amazing spot with amazing views on the Golden Horn. Well done! I highly recommend this tour. It is not delivered by half knowledgeable guides. Rather you get top notch experience. Next time I visit Turkey, I will try their morning Kadikoy and Karakoy tour, also on viator. Thank you guys!</p>',5.0,'2014-08-10T14:44:13Z','REV-W3TkCN6NTEQysFQTpOuqL4XU/a48chrbfdax19evxL8=','en','Manal H','VIATOR'),('5828P21','Small Group Tour of Istanbul Highlights Morning','Istanbul','Istanbul es una ciudad espectacular!!!

The Bazaar is very busy and the closing time is around 7pm. 
Advise:

The prices in the bazaar are actually more than you would find outside the bazaar. So i recommend shopping outside the bazaar on the street markets. they  are generally around 20-30 Lira difference.

when you enter the Bazaar you will see the sweet/savoury sections. they are a absolute rip off. do not buy for more than 60 lira for 1 kg of Turkish delights. they will quote you from 120-90 lira. Trust me you can get it cheaper with them or somewhere else. 

The decorated tea sets they sell for 120 lira. BUT you can actually go to the supermarket and get the same set for 10 Lira!!!

there are a lot of fake cloths, bags, shoes etc. if you decide to buy them always remember they will quote you 3 times the actually amount they are willing to sell for. so don\'t be fooled!

the bazaar is huge place with similar shops just in different places. its worth a visit just to see what all the fuss is about. snapchat movement of course. 

I have actually found better exchange rates in the bazaar than outside. 

the food around the bazaar is expensive. you can get the same even better food on the side of the streets away from the touristy bits. i ate at the restaurant right outside and paid over 120 Lira for kebab and rise, and a Turkish pizza. i went outside the busy bits and got 2 large kebab wraps, chips, pizza and some other dishes i forgot what you call them plus tea and cakes enough for 4 people (2 of us only, since am going holiday might swell put some calories on) and only paid 56 Lira! which is about £6 Bargain!

The Bazaar is very busy and the closing time is around 7pm. 
Advise:

The prices in the bazaar are actually more than you would find outside the bazaar. So i recommend shopping outside the bazaar on the street markets. they  are generally around 20-30 Lira difference.

when you enter the Bazaar you will see the sweet/savoury sections. they are a absolute rip off. do not buy for more than 60 lira for 1 kg of Turkish delights. they will quote you from 120-90 lira. Trust me you can get it cheaper with them or somewhere else. 

The decorated tea sets they sell for 120 lira. BUT you can actually go to the supermarket and get the same set for 10 Lira!!!

there are a lot of fake cloths, bags, shoes etc. if you decide to buy them always remember they will quote you 3 times the actually amount they are willing to sell for. so don\'t be fooled!

the bazaar is huge place with similar shops just in different places. its worth a visit just to see what all the fuss is about. snapchat movement of course. 

I have actually found better exchange rates in the bazaar than outside. 

the food around the bazaar is expensive. you can get the same even better food on the side of the streets away from the touristy bits. i ate at the restaurant right outside and paid over 120 Lira for kebab and rise, and a Turkish pizza. i went outside the busy bits and got 2 large kebab wraps, chips, pizza and some other dishes i forgot what you call them plus tea and cakes enough for 4 people (2 of us only, since am going holiday might swell put some calories on) and only paid 56 Lira! which is about £6 Bargain!

There are no clear directions on what customers with online tickets should do on arrival, so be patient and have your printed ticket(s) as a precaution. Firstly, we arrived on time and I tried to give the gentleman in the office our printed ticket document, thinking it would save time (i.e. skip the line for ticket purchase, right?).  He barely looked at the document and told me he wasn\'t selling tickets, even though I gave him the printed document indicating we\'d purchased our tickets online. After I pointed this out, he clarified he wasn\'t giving out arm bands because they only allow a certain amount of people in a group. We were instructed to stand aside, and we eventually realised that we had to wait to join another group. About two or three persons who appeared to be working there helped us, and another couple who came after us, join a group (they were being formed in a rather ad-hoc manner). The way it all happened displayed a somewhat organised chaos, because no one was explaining anything to us; we just noted the man in the office suddenly took our ticket, issued us wrist bands, and someone else pointed us to a group. 
Our guide, Sancha, was quite simply a great storyteller. Rose Hall Great House is already an interesting place, but her delivery of its history made the tour worth the trip (and her tip at the end of everything). There was a photographer waiting at the steps going up to the house. It\'s optional of course and at the time of this review cost USD$12 with the frame.

We tasted different wines at all 3 wineries and there was also tapas on offer too (which was equally nice).

She made the Roman Forum come alive for us. Her excitement about sharing both what we were seeing and helping us imagine what we would have been seeing in the times of ancient Rome, made both the Victories and heartbreaks come alive for us! She did the same for the colosseum! 

In the afternoon, we had a different guide, Sandra for the Vatican City portion of the tour. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the history, the artists and the details and stories about individual pieces! She too was super enthusiastic and her extensive knowledge, like that of Illi\'s demonstrated expertise because both could answer every question (and often added related stories).... Sandra\'s love of art and history made the experience gascinating! 

Both tours were unforgettable because of the knowledge and passion of the guides. 

I would recommend this tour 100% for the passion and expertise of the guides! 

The only suggestions I would make to the company is to invest in better audio systems because there are so many other competing tours going on simultaneously inside the museums, we would get just get static in crowded rooms unless within arms distance from Sandra (so we stayed very close) but not everyone can stand right next to her. Also, a picture of the morning meeting spot would be helpful for people unfamiliar with local references.

Our guide was warm and friendly. The places we visited were postcard beautiful and we had plenty of time to explore on our own. The only reason I gave this a 4 is the problem we had at the end. Our guide told us which track to go to and the whole group did. He went through the checkpoint ahead of us and we assumed he was going to meet us at the track he specified. We got to the track and he was just gone. We all had tip money to give him and everything but he had just disappeared. The train came and we all got on (there were 9 in the group for our tour). You guessed it - he sent us to the wrong train. It took us an extra hour and a half to get back to Rome. Thank goodness the train staff allowed us to stay on the incorrect train even though it was busy. That was really frustrating since we paid extra for the fast train.
