Even if they were nice, the tour is not a tour, its a waste of time, a total scam. It was a 15 hour day.

“Guiden fortalte kun lige ganske lidt på vej ud af Istanbul ellers handlede det kun om at vi skulle besøge butikker for at få penge ud af folk og de var temmelig anmassende, specielt hvor de solgte marmelade og kosmetik samt silke. Gondolen var der ikke - vi fik en stolelift og der blev ikke fortalt noget overhovedet om stedet. I Bursa blev vi bare ledt ind i silkebutikken og ellers blev der heller ikke sagt noget om selve byen. Det var spild at have guide med og vi havde glædet os til at høre om silkeruten, Bursa og generelt mere under turen. En hel dag gik fra vores besøg…”
