This is not for a personal shopper nor for someone to show you the Grand Bazaar. This is for someone that wants to buy a carpet from a single company. The tour consisted of 1 person (me). The gentleman had me meet him at a carpet store. He took me in, showed me about 15 carpets and when I said "I wasn't interested" he said "OK, bye". That was the end of my tour. Waste of time and money!

If you book a shopping tour and you have no shopping interest, what we can do? And you wasted only 5$ (small group - not private tour) what a big deal for a drama Queen?!, what do you expect a shopping tour in grand bazaar and you do not want to shop??? Next time bring some money to a shopping tour God sake!

Gran experiencia
