Wonderful tour - We went on a wonderful tour with Emal. Our day started when they picked us up at the hotel. We picked up a few other guests and then parked with all the other tour busses where we were grouped into groups based on preferred language. We then went to the hippodrome, the Blue Mosque, the Hagia sophia and then a beautiful sweet shop that sells the most delicious teas, spices, turkish delights, etc. We ended our day at the Grand Bazaar. Emal was a gracious and informative tour guide, we really enjoyed our tour.
