ISTANBUL BEST: Iconic Landmarks Full Day PRIVATE Guided City TourISTANBUL BEST: Iconic Landmarks Full Day PRIVATE Guided City Tour
Alexander_C, Nov 2026
Incredible experience !
Umutcan was such an incredible guide. He was very nice and knowledgeable about history, local politics, culture, etc. He also took us to some parts of the Grand Bazar and other places that we never would’ve seen on the tour normally. We never felt pressured to do anything, he always offered unique experiences in addition to what is offered on the standard tour. He also texted us many recommendations after the fact for other neighborhoods and things to do. I would recommend this tour and Umutcan to anyone. If I’m ever back in Istanbul I would text him immediately and see if he is free!

Great tour, Amazing Guide
First, if I could give more stars, I would. As the title indicates...the tour was great (5 stars) and saw all the major sites, however, the real value came with our guide.--she was 6 stars! Sude is passionate about Istanbul and its history. She gave wonderful insight into the history and took as much time as necessary for each site. She was very knowledgeable of Greek, Roman, Christian, Ottoman history and did an amazing job of intertwining their histories into the story of Istanbul. I would very much recommend this tour from an informational standpoint, but I cannot leave out the practical efficiency of having a guide. She met us at our hotel which was in the new part of Istanbul and quickly got us a taxi to the first site. She expertly navigated the streets from one site to the next which, even with GPS, would not be as efficient as a guide. Then, the 'Skip the Line' is such a timesaver. Knowing exactly where to go and what line to get in (which basically don't exist with a guide) is incredibly efficient. I can't stress enough how much value this adds. Perhaps we missed some unintended wrong turns on the streets of Istanbul, but he had plenty of time to wander around after the tour. She also took us to a great cafe with some of the better food we encountered in Istanbul (and because I happened to have my Rick Steves book with me, they gave me a 10% discount off the already reasonable bill).

Great Tour for a Great City
We did the 3-day tour with driver. It’s a very comprehensive tour of Istanbul and we highly recommend it. The tour guide was very knowledgable. Both the tour guide and driver were very pleasant. Add an extra day for a Turkish Bath experience. Such a lovely city, everyone we met were oh so friendly. We’ve travelled quite a bit of the world and Istanbul is now one of our favorite cities.

Istanbul Taste of Two Continents Food Tour - Spice Market & FerryIstanbul Taste of Two Continents Food Tour - Spice Market & Ferry

Enjoyed these "yummy" tastes of Istanbul along with a great walking tour and ferry ride. Fun!
Enjoyed this tour of the Spice Bazaar and so many great tastes of Istanbul on both sides of the Bosphorus! From breakfast foods and local teas and coffees to two lunches, including a spectacular doner kebab, with stops for olives, pickled delicacies, Turkish-spiced soups, street foods like fresh mussels, and tea/coffee, wow, it was a lot of good stuff. We especially liked the tour of the Kadikoy district—sort of like an up-and-coming Brooklyn. Our "Yummy Istanbul" tour guide was engaging, informative, enthusiastic, and helpful. He got our group (one couple in their 60s and two families of four) around to all his stops very efficiently and safely. Gave us lots of good tips on things to see around the area. It was a great way to spend an October Friday in Istanbul.

Straddling Europe and Asia, Istanbul harbors two millennia of cultural, religious, and political history. Diving into the cultural melting pot is best done with the help of a guide, and you’ll find Istanbul tours that cover every aspect of the city’s past, present, and future. Explore iconic landmarks like the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, sail between continents on a Bosphorus cruise, experience a traditional Turkish bath, or learn to haggle like a local at the Grand Bazaar. Istanbul is also ground zero for day and multi-day trips, with tours setting out for Troy, Pamukkale, Cappadocia, Ephesus, and beyond.
