            3-4 days in Instanbul - tour company here or arrange once there?

            Posted by: BarryK on Jun 23, 09 at 07:15 AM Posted in: Europe Tagged: Jump to last reply Flag this topic

            We expect to be in Instanbul in the fall for 3-4 days. We prefer organized tours vs. wandering on our own to hear the local's perspective, history ,etc.

            So the question is - should we book with a tour company here, including hotel, etc., or should we book a hotel on our own and hook up with a tour via the concierge desk or elsewhere once there?
