Hello as long as the next flight is bought as a segment which is still turkish airlines, your check in luggage will still be with them, only your handcarry luggage will be with you during the 28 hour transit. Breakfast is free during this Tour package. And yes you can stay at your own hotel but I suggest also to check the other option of Turkish Airlines which is the free hotel. Havent tried that but for longer layovers, they have that option. You can only take that or the free tour.

@@ZohaibJahan Hello Zohaib! Yes, you do need a Visa even for Touristanbul as you will have to go out of the Immigration :)

Hello Raffaela! I am so happy with your message! I only wish you the best of Budapest and definitely recommend walking around the city. Not really much of a need to buy a lot of tram or bus tickets if you love walking around! Any questions or tips not on the vlogs, feel free to ask here :)

@@StevensQueue yes! Planning on walking a lot. I also saw that there is an app to use public transport, so will download that one as well, in case of need. Did you visit any nice bakery/café?

@@raffaelae1020 That's a really good idea! Especially October, October to early November are my favorite months to travel so as May :) I'm also editing a VLOG Soon about Budapest Food Spots that I ate at, I suggest you look after that especially their croissants! At first I was like wait? Croissants in Budapest? But they are actually yumm!

@@StevensQueue sounds great. will keep an eye out for the video.

@@ernestoque2218 it was a lot better compared to going to Bratislava :)

Waaaa marami pong salamat sa support! Hope you enjoy it po!

Hello Rizky, welcome to my channel and happy to have you here. Oh unfortunately I think you will not make it to the tours given your layover times. If I may suggest maybe you can change your flights still on a long layover, i would say it will be worth it if you can look for an earlier flight from Ireland so you can have a longer and importantly, much earlier layover :)

@@Nelia2024 yes Indeed!

@@Nelia2024 it is not very cheap but I would say it is a city with a great value for your money!

Salamat po Yeya

@@AbrarAhmed-zl5md hello, yes you do but you can apply online for the Turkish eVisa. You need it so you can go out of the immigration area before going to the Touristanbul Desk :)

Oh, thanks for the clarification

@@AbrarAhmed-zl5md you are welcome :) and I recommend you do the tour! It's worth the online visa application fee and effort :)

@@StevensQueue definitely..!!! my plan is from Mumbai to Jeddah which is 1000USD, but choosing Turkish Airline just for this Touristanbul which cost 1500USD..!

@@AbrarAhmed-zl5md waaaaa that is quite a big difference in price. I suggest you better choose the long layover if you have an option to do so, so you will be able to enjoy more and do the long tour options. You can see the options and schedules on the touristanbul site :) so you can make the most out of your flight cost

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed!

Thank you so much Daddy

Of course yeya! I learned to love Gardening because of you!

Thank you Yeya! Indeed it is!

Hello Brother Aqilahamed! Thank you for your question. First of all, the layover time you have is amazing! It really enables you to choose a tour that you will like as it covers basically daytime! 1) No need to claim Baggage. As long as your ticket is purchased as one Unit (meaning bought as one ticket of two flights and not two separate London to Istanbul, and a separate Istanbul to KSA) you don't need to claim checked in baggage :) 2) For Airport Lounges that one Im not super sure if there is any nearby (first class lounges, paid lounges, etc) But there are a lot of chairs and seating areas around the Touristanbul Desk/Office where you can stay and wait for the 7am time to line up and register for the tour. I would suggest to go directly to the touristanbul and just wait on the chairs there as you need to walk quite a distance from your Arrival Gate as IST Airport is like a whole City haha I'm excited for your trip, wish you an amazing trip and stop in Istanbul and tell me how it goes ;)

@@StevensQueue thank you for your kind reply , Cheers

Oh I would love to go to Prague via Train someday. And even to Dresden as one of my Insta friends from a long time lives there. Is it expensive to go from Czech to Dresden? Around how many Euros one way? And by the way, I subscribed to your channel! I love train content!!!

​@@StevensQueue Thank you very much, I really appreciate it 😁😁. From Bratislava to Dresden it costs 133,14 euros 🙂

CZK 3,316 😀

@@Sotous_Titanic Thank you so much :) It is quite expensive compared to Budapest to Bratislava for only 17€ But I hope I can do that trip someday. I haven't been to Germany yet, just a layover in Frankfurt Airport :)

Thank you very much!

Thank you so much @pdtech4524 :) it was indeed a very exciting moment when I filmed that :) And thank you for sharing your first experience I was also sooo nervous because it was my first time to use a fully mechanical camera because during my childhood our film cams already had batteries for the flash and loading haha

Thank you so much for subscribing 💚

The same question for 08.00-11.30 tour, thank you in advance for the reply

For the 8:30 - 11:30 tour, you will arrive at the airport at 11:30 so your next flight should be at least 2-3 hours after 11:30 :)

@@StevensQueue thank you :)

@@gungthey84 my pleasure and enjoy the trip 💕

This is very true :) and they have different tour schedules depending on the time you arrive

Hello there. I did not because my tour doesn't have a shopping part so I thought I wouldn't need it. But some establishments accept Euros and also a lot of card terminals as well if need to pay thru debit or credit :)

Hello August! I have done neither of those two and they are actually seasonal packages (only offered May to October). If I only have one choice, I will definitely choose T06 which includes a Bosphorus Cruise! It is one of the highlights of any Istanbul tour so I definitely suggest you take that instead of the T07 shopping tour :)

I have the option to do both. One on way there and one on way back. I might as well do them both!! Thanks for the feedback!!

@@augustartois my pleasure and hope you enjoy them both 💚

Thank you so much teh Katie!!! And thank you for always helping me with Itineraries even at the last Minute you still help me haha

@@StevensQueue no worries, to more adventure this 2024! 🍻

@@mrsfiserova Yayyyy and hope to visit you soon! Sana mapush ko na hihiji

Hello Kathleen

This specific tour did not :( But the full day tour if you have a long layover, I think it will pass by Hagia Sofia

@@StevensQueue But if Blue Mosque is included.. Malapit na sya sa Hagia di po ba tsip?

@@nelcaps1649 Hello po :) Hindi po included to this tour yung Blue Mosque. but it is sa tours 2 and 3 if I'm not mistaken :) So yes, matatanaw nyo po siya from Blue Mosque if bababa si tour sa Blue Mosque

Waaaaa thank you so much Sir Dan!!! Naku Sir mas magaganda po mga pinupuntahan nyoooooo Gusto ko din makarating Uzbekistan huhuhu more travels to you Sir Dan 💚

Hahahahaha thanks dear Mem isayaw na yayn

Hello Mark, no worries and happy you find it helpful! Tours are scheduled already through the day if I'm not mistaken there are 5 or 6 tours with different times and duration, you will then select what would be best fit to your layover :) No need to apply online, just make sure your layover fits your selected tour. If I may suggest better check as early as now the tour schedules and what will be fit to your layover so you can be ready at what time (I suggest at least 40 minutes before your chosen tour, you should be lining up on the TourIstanbul desk already) Safe travels Mark and enjoy Istanbul!

Thank you!!!

@@markb6s4 my pleasure and happy trip!

Hello there :) Thank you for your question and Ill answer it with the best of my knowledge. I think the free accomodation will depend not just on the number of hours (usually minimum of 20 hours if I'm not wrong) and if the layover is through the night. Upon reading forums as well, one thing done by a traveller was to contact Turkish Airlines directly prior to the trip for them to do the booking in your behalf in advanced :) As per the bus trip, I think there is a full day trip (if it matches the schedule of your layover) which will enable you to do the trip with more roam around time. Personally I would still recommend doing the Touristanbul just for the sake that it will be safer for you to be back in time for your second flight, as the City Center of Istanbul is about an hour away to the Airport. Though if you feel a little brave and would want to do a DIY, I would say its also a great idea as you can roam freely (and discover their food!) But yes if it was me I will take the tour because it also gives you time to roam although not so much but it's safer not to be left behind by your next flight :)

thank you so much po :)

Hello po! When going home from Spain po, I was asked to accomplish the eTravel thing via phone. Answer ko lang po yung form then save the QR 8which is hindi naman po hinanap sa akin pagdating ng Pinas but just to be sure I did it po) As per the tour of Turkish po, hindi po nila yan hinahanap, sa atin lang po yung eTravel thing. And no Travel Tax po sa Turkey. Also, sa Pilipinas lang din po may Travel Tax so no worries sa Turkey, all you need is Turkey Visa to go out of the Immigration on Turkey then go sa tour :)

That is a very good question! I haven't booked from a travel booking website yet, I usually book direct from the Plane's own Website. I'd suggest booking directly from Turkish Airline Site at least you are sure that both flight segments operate under them :)

Hello Sir Cris :) For Philippine Passport Holders po, you can apply for eVisa if you have a valid US/UK/Schengen Visa or Residence ID. If wala po, need po magapply for Turkish Visa on the regular process po :)

@@StevensQueue I appreciate your response sir thank you.

Thank you so much and I'm so happy you like it!

Thank you so much and I am so happy to hear that you like it! I love Indonesia so much, I have been only to Bali but would definitely go back to see other islands :)

Hello Bro, welcome to my channel! To answer your questions: The tour is free of charge as long as both your flights are Turkish Airlines from India to Istanbul and Istanbul to Croatia. You can only avail this tour or the free hotel. Only one of each :) with your Layover of 19 hours, I think you can avail of the overnight stay (especially if the hours of your layover will be afternoon to morning) and I think I will choose the free hotel if it was the case :) Yes you do need a Visa to go to the tour as you need to go out of Inmigration. But as an Indian Passport Holder and you have a valid Schengen Visa, it will be easy via the eVisa website of Turkish eVisa. You can do it online very fast. You just need to go to the website (Turkish eVisa) enter your details then pay pn the same website and follow the instructions and then dont forget to print a copy of that eVisa :)

@@StevensQueuethank you so so so much brother ❤ how nice you are🫶🏻 A last question i want to ask that if i go for free hotel so for that also i need a e visa? Because for hotel also i have to go outside and cross immigration?

@@bhukkadmusafir4917 my pleasure brother :) And to answer your question, Yes. You still need the Visa as you will still need to go out of the immigration and the airport. I'm excited for your trip very soon! Croatia as well is amazing, one of the most beautiful places I have visited in EU :)

@@StevensQueue how nice person you are❤️ First time i am going out of 🇮🇳 hoping for best❤️ thanks a ton brother ❤️❤️❤️

@@bhukkadmusafir4917 Woooow! That would be amazing brother! I pray for your safe journey and only the beautiful memories to make on your trip! Take care brother!

My dearest friend I'm so happy to see you here! Thank you for watching nakakatouch huhu it was so much fun!

Hello Kabayan! Thank you for watching and happy you enjoyed it! I highly recommend it Kabayan! The cost for the Turkish eVisa is 20€ single entry, all you need is single entry kasi isang labas ka lang sa immigration and then balik after the tour :) online lang sya all you need is your passport details and if Philippine Passport, additional requirement lang is US/UK/Schengen Residence Permit. Wala nang travel tax to pay when you are there, just the eVisa Fee kapag nagapply ka online. Ganun din physically when you arrive, papakita mo lang is passport, residence card, and the eVisa Paper (print mo po ito) :)

Thank you so much Kabayan! Thank you for taking time replying on my query. Sobrang naappreciate ko to. At least alam ko na gagawin ko pag layover namin. 😊 looking forward to this travel. Again thank you and Kudos po. Praying for more trips and more success on your channel!

@@paperstick00 you are so nice Kabayan! I really appreciate your words! Super salamat and hope all goes well, and yes super sulit ang Turkish! Natripan ko lang itry for the Touristanbul pero mukhang ito na ulit sasakyan ko paguwi next year para matry yung iba pang free tour nila hehe More trips for you as well and salamat din sa Pagsubscribe super appreciate it 🙏🏼

Hello Munika! I took the 3 hour Tour that left at 8:30am and back at 11:30am on the airport

Nice video, I will have a 15hr layovers in December, and really curious about how it is based on the passengers' experience. Thx for the share.

@@munikahasibuan oh I highly recommend it :) check the available tour schedules based on the start and end of your layover, you might even fit to the full day tour :)

Hello nacg2133. Thank you so much for watching :) Oh you have two options, first is the Bus has a storage so while you do the tour, you can keep it in the same bus without a fee (what I did) but also just beside the TourIstanbul desk, there is a paid luggage left storage you can avail :)

Thanks so much dear!

Thank you so much Katie!!! Will do dear haha lagi lang nacocopyright :(

Another dream come true 💚
