Don%26#39;t know how much the reps charge DevonJetsetter but this is a link to the boat that leaves from Nessebar to Istanbul and they offer packages.

Does anyone know of any one day trips? We are only going for a week and 2 days is quite a bit out of our break. Not sure if it can be done in a day however I%26#39;d love to visit Istanbul.

Hi Devon Jetsetter. We%26#39;ve been going to SB twice a year for the past 10/11years and we love it. Going June 20th for 3weeks. You will find that it is cheaper to organise your own excursions rather than use reps. We went to Instanbul 2years ago and it was a fantastic experience. It is a long trip, they do go for 1day but I would recommend the 2day trip if you can manage it. We left SB at 6am and arrived in Instanbul about 2.30pm.Meal included on arrival then a guided tour of Blue Mosque etc. Checked into 3star hotel then 8pm a night tour of the city. After breakfast we left for a cruise on the Bosphorus then a visit to the Grand Bazar, a meal at the Orient Express restaurant before leaving at 4pm and arriving back in SB about midnight. All this cost less about £45. These trips can be booked through any of the little tourist offices in the resort. I hope you enjoy.

Me and the Mrs have been to Turkey the last two years and decided to try Sunny Beach this year for a change but we would love to visit Istanbul.

Any info on this years prices for the two day excursion and where`s the best place to book it from.

We have just come back and did the two day trip to Istanbul. I feel one day would not do it justice to go all that way. We booked through Balkan Holidays which was £71 adult £43 child but did not include all excursions. We paid extra for City Lights Trip and there was also option of dinner with belly dancing then following day option of boat trip and lunch. We set out at 5.30am and arrived about 2.30pm when we had lunch and then took us around the old part. We enjoyed the trip and glad we went.
