XaviAbout local17 August 2025A wonderful experience
Emre was an amazing guide! His passion and knowledge made the tour so engaging, and he shared stories that really brought the city to life. It felt like exploring with a friend rather than just a guide. Highly recommend!

DanielAbout localThe best experience in Istanbul!
The tour we had with Emre was a real gem! He took us to places we would never have discovered by ourselves, in a really nice neighboorhood, where apparently he knew everyone :) Getting to know the city by its food and what locals really eat was amazing. Besides that, he gave us really valuable tips for sightseeing and for other restaurants and cafes. 10/10 experience

NancyAbout localWorld Perspective
Emir is truly a citizen of the world. Having lived in several countries, he brings an exceptional perspective to his tours. He has a depth of knowledge on history and it is obvious he loves both the subject and his city. We enjoyed his tour very much. Not least was the excellent baklava at the end.

We booked the Introduction to Istanbul tour with Emir for the first morning of our stay and we are so glad we did. Emir was a fantastic host, welcoming and full of knowledge! He provided us with lots of tips for how to make the most of time in Istanbul and some great foodie recommendations.

CindyAbout localWell worthwhile
Alp was the perfect tour guide. Despite much of the route being disrupted due to the marathon- he adapted his itinerary. Many interesting facts and great restaurant recommendations- thank you Alp.

AmandaAbout localWalking and talking with a local
Deniz is a great human being who knows so much about Istanbul. We went through all sorts of areas ending up in the Asian side enjoying a very different part of this vibrant and friendly city. We had a great tea/coffee break. Deniz answered all sorts of questions and as others said made lots of great suggestions.
