    Esra was great!

    Esra was in contact with us before our tour. She introduced us to a friend the day before our tour who helped us shop in the grand bizarre. She made it easy to connect and was able to move our tour up a bit to accommodate our hectic schedule. Her knowledge of Istanbul and her professionalism were both outstanding. I highly recommend her.

    My Family from Utah Loved Ugur!

    Ugur gave us a very informative and wonderful tour of the Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace. Ugur was full of knowledge of the historical sites, the Turkish history and provided us detailed information. Ugur was passionate about Turkey and shared his love of his country with us, including Turkish basketball. We had a great time with him! Thank you.

    Exploring Istanbul

    We were fortunate enough to explore the rich history and culture of Istanbul together with Nihal. She guided us to historical sites and brought the city’s past to life through countless anecdotes, making it vivid and easy to understand. Thanks to her many tips for planning the rest of our stay, this city trip to Istanbul will stay in our memories for a long time. Thank you, Nihal!

    Incredible value added to our trip!

    Oguz was very friendly, knowledgeable, responsive, and accommodating! He took us to incredible places off the beaten path and knew all of the history. Having him there to navigate made it so we didn't waste any time, and we would have missed a ton of context and symbolism without him. He helped us to feel safe and confident in going out on our own the next day.

    Wonderful Guide

    Firat is a wonderful and knowledgeable tour guide that made the whole experience feel like I was exploring a new historical area with a dear friend. He was funny, down to earth, informative and very accommodating to my mobile disability challenges. I would highly recommend him for anyone.

    The 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
