We signed up to go o n a tour l. In the beginning it went well and the churches were beautiful and at the last stop of our tour we went to somewhat of a flea market where we were brought into a carpet store for some someone to teach us about carpets. Our tour guide left us there for 30 minutes, and then we were asked if we wanted to buy a carpet as a souvenir which was very akward, we then visited other stores with the tour guide were clearly she knew it was for them to ask us to purchase items. Was extremely packed and full of cigarette smoke. She walked so fast and was so disturbing for us considering we knew nothing about this country and was more of a way to have us purchase items we did not ask or wanted

Dear Jeanette,
Thank you four your feedback about our tour. We really appreciate it.
Handmade carpets are part of our culture and we included a carpet demonstration on our program to show it. This part is not mandatory but we can't remove it from the program since some guests wishes to see it.
We'll take into consideration your feedback and will try to find ways to improve this part of our tour.
Thank you,
Neon Tours

I have a 4 hour layover at IST on Saturday afternoon. Could you arrange a quick tour to include airport pickup and drop-off?
