olaola Posted April 7 Posted April 7 Hello, I am new to the forum, I will travel to Istanbul in September, I am willing to pay some fees and have some wonderful things happen with tall and strong men 1) How is Aquarius now? What are the current fees? What is the quality of the boys? I noticed that the effective raiders in the forum are all a year old 2) The handsome guys of rentmen and hunqz are expensive. Is it possible to bargain? Mavica 1 Quote
AlecH. UK Posted April 9 Posted April 9 I can only speak of my experience there a few years ago. I visited a number of times. There seemed to be a triple fee system operating, a modest entry fee, then in addition to the entry fee, a sort of booth fee and then the separate "service" fee for the masseur. Overall I still felt it was good value. The Guys were all very friendly and I couldn't fault the un-hurried "service" that the masseur gave me, which included skillfully topping me, bathing me and a good massage. I chose one of the slightly older guys, who was a Kurd. I think the exchange rate is pretty good at the moment too. A tourist tip :- get over to the other side of the isthmus via the tram in the early part of the morning before the cruise line crowds. The "Must Sees" of Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Roman Yerebatan Cistern are much quieter then. To avoid the queue at the Cistern, it's worth paying a tout/guide, who for a modest fee will take you in via the back door. The grounds and exhibits of the Topkapi palace are not to be missed. Enjoy the local street food like bread sandwiches too. The small restaurants where the locals eat lunch offer great value and are of a good quality; and that day's hot dishes ( often meat stuffed vegetables in sauces) can be seen, in their heated display cases, from the entrance way or window. Enjoy! Mavica and Marc in Calif 1 1 Quote
