Turkish is a great airline, but everything connects through Istanbul, often with long layovers. For layovers over 9 (economy) or 12 (business) hours, there are also free hotel rooms.
The OP's schedule didn't allow him taking one of the tours, as you have mentioned he would miss the tour departing at noon, that's why I haven't mentioned about it.
