Hi there
I am in Turkey for only 2 days first week of April as there for a flying visit for work. I am really keen to see as much as possible withini those 2 days and have some ideas but would really appreciate any suggestions for sightseeing/activities off the tourist trail from people that have been there. Any and all suggestions welcome.
If anyone needs some advice about the UAE, or Dubai in particular, am happy to help!
Cheers

Hi

First of all you can not see much of turkey in two days but you should make the most of the time while you are there as turkey is such a beautiful country. Being a turkish i d like to make you some suggestion but i have to know where you will possibly be in turkey during your visit? kind regards

Try looking at .... turkish planner website for ideas. In two days you cannot see much more than perhaps Sultanhamet - or maybe a Bosphorus trip which might give you some quiet time. If you have sufficient funds - get the hotel to supply (hire) a local guide and ask himher to take you to out of the way places .

if you are in istanbul stay there. if you want to get out of town take a boat up the bosphorus or to the prince islands. istanbul is lovely. no reason to leave with only two days.
