Review summary

We booked a triple cabin for 3 seniors. We got a twin cabin with a rollaway bed. The bed stayed in the room for the 11 days and they took away a chair to make roomfor it. In order to get to the bathroom at night the 2 in the beds (the lucky ones) had to climb over the rollaway. difficult for my 82 yr old hsuband. Our cabin should NEVER have been sold as a triple . It really spoilt the whole trip because of the accommodations.

Watch out for taxi drivers. Got ripped off badly and couldn't argue because of traffic and language. Unlucky with the weather - sleet the first day . Enjoyed the Grand Bazaar pity it closed at 5 on Sat and dkidnt reopen on Sun.
Don't Miss: Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, Haji Sofia.
