Amazing Istanbul Tour
We had an amazing time on this tour in Istanbul! Everything was well organized, and we got to see so many incredible historical and cultural landmarks. Our tour guide, Shaban, was outstanding- friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing the history and culture of Turkey.

Istanbul Iconics
Toured Istanbul’s iconic landmarks and was very interesting. Our tour guide Añil was great, and gave lots of information regarding each site and its history. Recommended us place to get local Turkish food which was great and how to move within the grand bazaar.
Will recommend the tour and better if with Anil

Great tour of Istanbul
We had a great day out, our tour guide Ayşe Yıldırım could not have been more helpful. Her knowledge, enthusiasm and helpfulness were excellent. She made sure we saw all the highlights, and took us to a wonderful restaurant for lunch. This is a good tour, and Ayşe is a great guide.

Fuat was amazing. Perfect tour!
Fuat was wonderful. He made getting to destinations easy. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about the sights and history. Took us to a great restaurant and ceramic store - which included a lovely experience. All the sights on this tour are must see events.
We ran into trouble with a reservation for after the tour and he helped us figure it out. He was amazing.
He’ll go at your pace and customize the trip to your preferences. Can praise strongly enough!

Excellent trip along the Bosphorus
Excellent communication, boat bigger than I had anticipated. Pastries, fruit plate, soft drinks and tea served with option to buy alcoholic drinks if wanted. Staff helpful and unobtrusive. Would definitely recommend. Two hour cruise was one of the highlights of our Istanbul trip

Flexible and Fun!
This tour was perfect! Our guide, Celal, was friendly, witty, and knowledgeable. We appreciated all of his local knowledge, recommendations, and explanation of the history of Istanbul. He explained thousands of years of history in a way that was easy to understand. Best of all, the tour was flexible! He allowed us to choose our pace and where we went. I highly recommend!

Amazing day in Istanbul with a top notch guide
Eylem is the most knowledgeable and friendly tour guide we have EVER had. She was truly remarkable. I could not recommend more. She was flexible with the itinerary in order to accommodate our wishes and generous with her time. We never felt rushed but got a wonderful, comprehensive tour.

Exceptional Istanbul In One Day Experience
Fantastic experience with Samet! He was very knowledgeable, professional, considerate and kind. We learned so much from the experience. We visited all of the highlights in Istanbul. One day was not enough. Hope Viator will consider offering a 2-day full day tour of Istanbul in the future. Our guide was the best!

Perfect Itinerary and Guide (Tayfun)
Our guide, Tayfun, was excellent. We did a private tour and communicated with the tour company in advance about what we’d most like to see. Tayfun customized our experience to be exactly what we wanted and gave us tons of historical info for context. Highly recommend!

Wonderful tour with a wonderful guide!
Had a great 2-day tour with our guide, Çiçek. She is a fountain of knowledge to all the sites and knows her way around the city. Highly recommend booking with the driver option so they can take you through some crazy streets to help you see the sites. Çiçek also had great stores to recommend in the Bazaar if you want to shop.

Great tour!
I had a lovely tour with Zel who was informative and tailored the tour as it was just me. She collected me at my hotel and gave me information on tram stops and tips about the area I was staying in. She is passionate and knowledgeable about all aspects of Istanbul and Turkey and I liked her immediately. She gave me plenty of photo opportunities and became my photographer for certain photos! We toured the Blue Mosque, the Topaki Palace, the Hippodrome, the
Grand Bazaar, & had lunch. I would 100% recommend Zel on this tour as your guide. Thank you Zel.
