Happy new year to one and all.
Have a 6 day holiday in Istanbul coming up later this month with the wife and will be staying at the Crowne Plaza Sultanhamet/Old City. Have read most of the TRs and suggestions by CarbonMan, jhm, phaleesy, SQflyergirl, KYO, calvinoeh, etc via http://www.sqtalk.com/forum/showthre...light=Istanbul
Would appreciate any suggestions members on this fora may have with regards to a tour guide like Kamel - a driver featured on SQflyergirl's TR - http://www.sqtalk.com/forum/showthre...stanbul&page=5, or would you recommend a tour group that offers half day walking tours from the website that jhm suggested. It covers most unique sites, such as the Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque and Roman Hippodrome, etc - http://www.backpackerstravel.net/Ist...d5-tid2-turid8
I am also looking for a venue for dinner, with a wonderful view of the Blue Mosque or the Bosphorus. Finally, the wife would like to catch a good belly dancing show, anyone been to one?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and best regards.
