    Loved our tour. Our guide was enthusiastic and historically informative. We walked a lot and got our exercise. Our guide showed us many of the must see monuments in a short time. We walked through the Great Bazaar and Spice Market too. Our guide was friendly and fun and kept us on our toes. We took the tour in English, but we were an international small group with some from Brazil, Italy and USA.

    This tour was excellent. Erol is an excellent tour guide. He was well informed, engaging and gave us some great local tips that came in handy throughout the rest of our trip. We were in a small group which made it much easier to follow and ask questions. The tour gave us a bit of understanding about Istanbuls history and some ideas of what we wanted to see more of. It was the perfect way to start our trip.

    First of all, our guide Erol was great and did a great job.
    The tour itself is not designed well, however. It doesn’t include entry into a single monument. So you basically walk around the sights but don’t actually get to experience them at all. The only place the guide takes you inside is his preferred store inside the Spice Bazaar where, of course, the visitors spend a lot of money. How convenient, right?

    This walking by tour was excellent. I recommend doing this early in your trip to get an understanding of the Old City. Erol, my guide, was super informative. After the tour, I felt like I could navigate old city on my own! Looking forward to going inside many of the sights later in my trip.

  6. GIOVANNI_T

    We’ll was a fantastic guide. He was very knowledgeable and willing to answer every question I had in depth. I very much enjoyed my tour with him and would recommend to anyone who is visiting Istanbul.

  7. Tim_S

    Emre Aygun was the most outstanding tour guide. He made the tour a fantastic experience. Over and above the call of duty – a great guide and personality.

  8. Nic_G

    Erol was an amazing guide with so much knowledge and enthusiasm, he answered all our questions and showed us a number of photos to support the tour.

    We got a wonderful introduction to Istanbul which I think is essential for first timers to the city. I would strongly recommend this tour

  10. Lizzy_B

    We booked onto the walking tour to get our bearings in historic Istanbul. Our guide was Tolga who was very knowledgeable and friendly. The experience was very relaxed and there was scope for him to answer any questions we had. He also gave us more ideas of places to visit that we hadn’t considered from a written tour guide alone. Invaluable. Thank you!

    Abdullah was a great guide, full of interesting stories and facts. He tailored the tour to our needs and was very accommodating. I would recommend highly

  12. Tiffany_R

    Tolga was a great tour guide and was extremely knowledgeable on Turkish history. He gave us a great summary of the city and showed us all of the main sights of the old town. This is a good tour if it’s your first time in Istanbul.

  13. Alissa_W

    I loved the whole experience! I was so happy that we got to take the ferry over to the Asian side and see how the locals live. Our tour guide was funny and knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour to anyone.

  14. Gavin_K

    Our guide Hüseyin was a joy to be around. He is very enthusiastic and loves his job. I met a brilliant couple from Virginia called Mark and Maryanne. We got a fantastic flavour of Istanbul and its history.

  15. Stephen_B

    Visit to Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and third mosque. Visit to Grand Bazaar.
    Visit to traditional Turkish carpet workshop.
    Huseyin was very knowledgeable and friendly. He did his utmost to ensure we gained the most benefit from the tour.
    I would highly recommend him as a guide.

  16. Elizabeth_G

    It rained during our entire walking tour, which was an ideal, but our guide Oz was fantastic – very knowledgeable and accommodating. He took us to a local tea house and his favorite mosque.

  17. mark_a

    All very interesting, we had a miserable cold and rainy day😟 and our guide definitely made the most of this tour so much so we forgot about the rain.

  18. Jonathan_T

    We had a private tour in the end and enjoyed very much. The guide was very knowledgeable and easygoing. Very busy, especially in the bazaar and be prepared for lots of walking.

  19. CESAR_Q

    Our guide,Erik, is very knowledgeable and funny with a lot of stories that makes it more interesting. I highly recommend this tour.

  20. Keith_M

    Great overview of the city, it’s history and cultural development, plus the complicated bazaars. Lots of useful advice on what to follow up, best times to go etc.
