Bose, our tour guide was a very friendly and extremely knowledgeable guide. She provided a very comfortable and interesting tour of the mosques and the grand bazaar. I highly recommend Bose, it was a great experience!

Knowledgeable and friendly guide, knew some shortcuts to minimize time in line where skip the line wasn’t available. Recommended. Only suggestion would be to do the main attractions with lines first and the hippodrome area later as the time spent getting background there made the waits a bit longer at the mosques.

Great tour with Zana. Super knowledgeable and her English was excellent. Istanbul strikes a ressemblence to my hometown of Lisbon and Zana was extremely interested is that exchange and comparisons. It felt like being shown around by a friend more than just a tour guide.

This was an awesome excursion from the cruise port. Because this was a private excursion, they were willing to work with us when our port time changed. Our guide, Furkan, was excellent. We were able to personalize our tour and, even better, he was able to adapt to the kind of tour information we wanted (the history/ archaeological stuff). This was definitely worth the money for a short time in Istanbul and I already can't wait to do it again! It was our first time in Istanbul and he made us feel at home. Thank you!

Our guide Gulce was very friendly and informative. All the sites were within easy walking distance of each other. Pickup at the port was very smooth. Couldn't see much in the Blue Mosque as it was under restoration but hopefully that will be finished soon. Altogether a very pleasant and informative tour.

The guide and the tour was extremely good. Mehmet Selcuk Ersan was an amazing tour guide, very knowledgable and helpful. We had an amazing experience in Istanbul.

From the moment we were picked up to the moment we were dropped off was absolutely amazing. Our guide was informative and friendly with a vast knowledge of all things on the tour. He made us feel like we were special and gave us the time to look and take photos at our leisure. Nothing was too much trouble for him. He guided us through the Grand Bazaar so we did not get lost and our visit to the ceramic shop was both unexpected and a bonus seeing ceramics made from scratch. I did make a purchase from there. All in all we recommend this tour to everyone who appreciates an enjoyable day out. We rate this tour above excellent, we could not have wished for a better day.
