Beautiful views, great food, nice souvenirs - This tour was extremely enjoyable and well-planned. The Galata tower is beautiful in person, and the atmosphere surrounding it is really great. We particularly enjoyed the ‘San Sebastian’ cheesecakes served in cafes near the tower. There are also many small shops in the area and they sell really beautiful authentic Turkish items - great for artwork and souvenirs! I would recommend bringing cash over paying by card due to the ATM fees in Turkey.
