Worth it - The 'small group' turned out to be just me. Bilal was an excellent guide. Because it was on a Friday and the Blue Mosque is closed to visitors until the afternoon, he worked our schedule to accommodate that. He was full of historical facts that made the features even more interesting. The pace was easy and the included lunch was delicious.

Hebeli Ada - Loved this island! We took the horse and carriage ride around the island and felt like we were in a whole other world. The ferry ride over was so relaxing and definitely worth a day trip.
