    Turkiye is interesting, lively, full of history and beauty. Our guide Ketin Dogan was knowledgeable, communicating clearly and able to answer all questions. So enjoyed seeing St. Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Sultanahnet Imperial Mosque and Topakapi Palace and the Instanbul bazaar. Fascinating and wonderful. So glad I did not cancel trip.
