"Dear Hakan:

 

Just a quick note to let you know how much we benefited from your services. The guides and drivers you arranged for our group of 6 in Ephesus and Istanbul were outstanding and helped make our trip special. They really knew their stuff.

 

We especially enjoyed the day we got to spend with you and see the other side/the non tourist side of Istanbul. Great insight into the world of today!

 

Thanks again for your assistance.

 

And don’t forget, when you go back to Northwestern for a class reunion, come and visit us in St. Louis."

Bosphorus:

Bosphorus is the strait between the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara; 32km (20 miles) long, 650-3300m (720-3600 yards) wide, 30-120m (100-395ft) deep.

Bosphorus comes from a Tracian word of unknown origin, interpreted in Greek as meaning "Ford of the Cow", from the legend of Io, one of the many lovers of Zeus, who swam across the sea here as a cow chased and continuously disturbed by flies sent by Hera.

To help you get acquainted with Istanbul before your arrival, we have added detailed information along with great photographs of over 20 sights of this extraordinary city.

Four Seasons:

For the journalists and intellectual dissidents sentenced to a prison term in this building, a period of incarceration was something to brag about -- and it still is, albeit for different reasons.

After a long period of neglect, this Turkish neoclassical building located in the heart of Sultanahmet was converted from a prison into a five-star hotel, with much of the original marble and tile recycled into its present-day, elegant design. The saffron exterior is a bit severe, but the contrast within couldn't be greater.

Almost all of the rooms have views of something fabulous
