What are people saying about Istanbul

The best tour of Istanbul . Thanks to our tour guide Zeynip.
If I could recommend anything to do in Istanbul, it’d be this. We met our tour guide Zeynip and she made this the best foodie experience ever. We started by eating local famous Istanbul food, trying Turkish delights(and educated on the difference between bad and good). We then had a lovely scenic view with some Turkish coffee(and some helpful tips on Turkish Coffee - don’t finish it) and got some amazing photos. Everyone in our group was really friendly, we had some brilliant cultural exchange over coffee, and then went to the main restaurant. They cater for plenty of options(for example I’m vegetarian) and wow! The history, knowledge and genuine interest from Zeynip of the food was honestly amazing to listen to. She knows a lot about the history of Istanbul. I’ll leave the local delicacies you get at the restaurant a surprise, but trust me, it’s definitely a foodies dream. I was nervous spending £50 at first but honestly, with the tour guide, the food and the amazing cultural exchange they could be charging a lot more for it. This is definitely worth it thanks to our lovely group and tour guide Zeynip. She really went out of the way to make it a great experience and the tour would not be the same without her. So thanks everyone from our group for making this the best food tour we’ve been on. Sophie and Luke

A must do Turkish experience
Zeynep was very prompt and professional with communication and the meet up spot was easy to find. She made us feel like we were meeting up with a friend, tasty dinner, and interesting cultural show. I didn’t know much about the whirling dervishes and the ceremony was very meditative- just know before you go that it’s a spiritual / religious ceremony not a dance show. Would def recommend!

Best tour try it and fill the spirit, go A luxury cruise on the Bosphorus is an absolutely unforgettable experience. From the moment you step on board, everything feels refined, elegant, and perfectly organized. The views are simply breathtaking—gliding between two continents, with majestic palaces, historic mansions, and iconic bridges passing by, all reflected in the shimmering water. The service was impeccable: attentive, discreet, and genuinely warm. The atmosphere on board was calm and sophisticated, making it perfect for relaxing, taking photos, and truly enjoying Istanbul from a unique perspective. Whether at sunset or at night with the city lights, the Bosphorus looks magical. This is not just a boat trip—it’s a premium experience that combines comfort, beauty, and romance. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to see Istanbul at its most elegant and memorable.

Recommended tour
Lutfullah, our guide was wonderful. As our trip approached, he sent reminders with date, time, and meeting place, as well as what to expect. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and great to spend the day with. With just a day and a half stopover in Istanbul, this tour allowed us to efficiently visit everything we most wanted to experience. Be aware that you will walk a lot and cover a lot of ground. Also know that entrance fees must be paid in cash at the start of the tour (as explained to you). We highly recommend this tour!
