We had a great day in Istanbul with Ahmet Can. It was interesting, fun, and informative. He met us at our hotel, and within the first ten minutes of walking towards public transportation, he had stories to share about the street we were walking in. This was indicative for the rest of the day: Ahmet was knowledgeable, engaging, and responsive to all our questions. He is a good representative of all that is good about using WithLocals. We can highly recommend him.Interesting, informative, and fun day

Ahmet was a fantastic guide for our first visit to Istanbul. It felt like we had a friend showing us around the city. Ahmet was punctual and really helped us make the most of our time together, going above and beyond our expectations. Thank you Ahmet!

We had a wonderful time in Istanbul with Ahmet. He showed us around the main city attractions and explained in detail the (many!) historical events that took place over the various places visited (Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Basilica Cisterns, Grand Bazaar, etc.). This was definitely the highlight of our trip and we'd encourage anyone visiting to benefit from Ahmet's lovely personnality, humor, good mood and wealth of knowledge by booking a tour. Perfect day in Istanbul!

Ahmet is a perfect example of what a local guide should be - not young, but experienced; delicate, yet persistent. He knows Istanbul like a back of his hand and always at your service if you need extra story. And as an experienced and professional tour guide he knows a pack of stories which you will never get from an audio guide. Thank you, Ahmet! I highly recommend this guy to those who want to dive deeper than Cistern :-)Top notch service

From the first moment to the end we enjoyed this tour. Ahmet was very attentive, professional and knowledgeable about history. A humorous gentleman with a very pleasant manner. The length of the tour was significantly longer than booked because it was important to Ahmet to show us as much of Istanbul as possible. We can only recommend Ahmet and would book him again at any time.Amazing experience!! Thank you Ahmet!

Ahmet provided the perfect introduction to Istanbul for my husband and I as first time visitors. We very much appreciated his summary of the history of the city, his entertaining stories, which gave colour to the key sites, and his hospitality. A most relaxing and valuable experience which assisted with providing direction for our holiday of several days. We highly recommend engaging his services.A most enjoyable introduction to Istanbul

Ahmet made us feel immediately at home in Istanbul. Not only did he guide us around the historic sites but he gave us really useful tips to make the most of our time there. These saved us time and money. He was good fun and went beyond his allotted time to give us as much time as possible. We would recommend him to anyone.Historic tour of Istanbul
