I had an absolutely fantastic experience with Kemal on my recent tour! Not only was he incredibly friendly and welcoming, but he also brought me to some of the most breathtakingly scenic views that nightlife has to offer. The tour expertly showcased a perfect mix of everything, from the vibrant atmosphere to the hidden gems that only a local would know. What really impressed me was how safe and secure I felt throughout the entire tour. Kemal's knowledge and insight allowed me to see and hear things that I'm sure most people would miss without a local guide. His expertise was invaluable, and I felt like I was getting a true insider's perspective on the city's nightlife scene. Overall, I would 100% recommend Kemal and his tour to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable experience. His passion and dedication to sharing his city with visitors is truly evident, and I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to explore with himHighlight of my trip

Kemal gave us a good insight of the nightlife of Istanbul. When he heard we were eager to try local specialities he brought us to the nicest locations. We had a "baklava" (should not be called like that) it was the best we ever had... Then this was followed by a fish sandwich, wine and he knew so much of the history, nice streets etc. Time went by so quick. We would definitely recommend him to everyone. Fantastic evening with lots of surprises

Fabulous Food tour with Kemal, he was extremely knowledgeable of the history & Cuisine of Istanbul. Took us to some great little spots off the beaten track.

Kemal hat sich nach unseren Bedürfnissen ausgerichtet und perfekt durch den Abend geführt. Dabei wies er uns auf interessante wie wichtige Eckpunkte der Stadt hin und lies keine unserer Fragen zu Geschichte, Gesellschaft und Kultur unbeantwortet. Was uns ganz besonders gefallen hat: Kemal mag Menschen, ist offen und hat uns von Anfang an das Gefühl gegeben, dass wir Freunde sind. Die Stadtviertel zum Ausgehen waren hervorragend ausgewählt! Mehr als perfekt

Not only was Kemal so genuine and caring for us, making sure we were safe at all times, guiding us through the hustle and bustle of the beautiful city of Istanbul, whether it be by foot or train, but his extended knowledge of the history behind Turkey itself was really appreciated and so interesting. He always asked us if we were going ok, as being seniors, Kemal made sure we were always comfortable throughout the tour and stopping for a rest, water or whatever we desired, was also appreciated. The food stops were so delicious and being with a local guide would now only be the way to go for further tours throughout Turkey, based on the excellent experience we had with our guide Kemal. Thankyou so much, you made our day and night, one to remember. Carla, Rob, Janet and Dave from Australia Best Ever Day and Night in Istanbul

Kemal was so accommodating and easy going. He catered to all my needs. We explored places where locals would go and explained some culture and history as well as answering to all my questions. He is so knowledgeable. He ensured I was comfortable at all times and he even took me to Latin dancing with the locals. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend booking with him. He won’t disappoint you! True local experience
