GREAT TOUR OF THE OLD CITY - I have used the services of Turista Travel previously on my trips to Turkey. This time I wished to have a personal experience in the old city. Davut assisted me to organise a full day private tour of the old city. I must say the guide was excellent and I have a great day. As always their service was friendly, efficient and reasonably priced. Thank you Turista for your excellent service.
