1.Open-Top Hop-on Hop-off Sightseeing Bus Tour in Istanbul

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 195 reviews · 1 day (approx.) · from $68Our pick

Review of Istanbul’s open-top bus tour, covering sights, traffic, audio, ticket issues, value, route stops, and who should book.

“Worst hop on hop off bus, would not recommend. Better off using mass transit. Traffic is insane, over 4 hour round trip and did not get off the bus except at mandatory stop 1 for 45 min. Don’t typically write reviews but this tour ruined our vacation. Some passengers were cutting it close to make it back to cruise ship port.”

My husband left his bag in Alex's van, but Alex was kind enough to drop it off for us. Overall, it was a memorable experience that I will cherish forever. Thank you, Spass Tour, for such a wonderful day trip!”

Review of Alanya’s Cabrio Bus Safari and Green Lake boat tour, with lunch, waterfalls, swim stop, costs, timing, and practical tips.

“Was een leuke activiteit had alleen verwacht dat de dierentuin groter zou zijn. En voor leeuwen knuffelen betaal €10 extra (contant) pp. De rondvaart zelf was ook redelijk kort. Weinig gezien op het water helaas. Ook maakten we veel stops met de cabrio bus. Hou rekening mee dat er op de bus waterpistolen worden gebruikt.”

They gave full attention to us during the trip. Highly recommended.”
