Stunning views of the Golden Horn! The guided history added depth. The hills are a climb, but the panoramic scenery is worth every step.

Breathtaking view! The guided tour was rich in history, and the sunset from the hilltops was unforgettable. Could use more seating spaces.

E** T***

Stunning views of the Golden Horn! The guided history lesson was informative, though the stops could be longer for photos. Highly recommend!
