Eine Tour am Morgen ist nur zu empfehlen. Es ist noch nicht so warm und viel leerer, so kommt man überall schnell rein. Tolle Erklärungen für die Blaue Moschee, der Eintritt in die Cisterne Basilika (Versunkener Palast) war genau zu dem Extrapreis (800 TL/Person) zu bekommen, wie TUI es angegeben hat. Und sie hat sich wirklich gelohnt! Sie ist einfach überwältigend schön! Die Erklärung zur Hagia Sophia kam etwas zu kurz für mich. Gleichzeitig stand das ehemalige Hippodrom neu auf dem Programm.

It was not the guides fault that the mosque was under construction, so nothing to see. Guest should not be taken there, there should be an alternative. During the tour we were taken to a shop to see a fashion show and we could by some leader jackets? Sorry, but this is for some a waste of time !
