Excellent tour guide in Istanbel
Nazan was an excellent private tour guide—professional, responsible, and very knowledgeable. She planned everything thoughtfully and made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Her English is excellent, and she explained Istanbul’s history and culture in a clear and engaging way. We learned a lot and had a wonderful time. Highly recommended!

Great Food, Great Company
Zeynep was an amazing host! Even after our flight was delayed she kept in contact with us the whole time and once we arrived she made us feel so welcome! Would absolutely recommend booking this experience. Good was really good, tried a lot of local dishes and the famous Turkish tea.

Fun pub crawl with great hosts
The Istanbul Party Pub Crawl is a high-energy way to experience the city's nightlife, especially for the transition from the Sultanahmet meeting point to the rooftop clubs in Taksim.
Highlights: literal flaming rooftop bars, seamless transport between locations, and a great way to meet fellow travelers.
The Vibe: Fast-paced and loud—perfect for those wanting a club-heavy night rather than a quiet bar scene.

A delightful informative experience!
Ali was an AMAZING guide. We never felt rushed and he tailored the tour based on what we were most interested in. He is a wealth of information and a joy to be around. We learned so much about the country of Turkey in general, in addition to the sites we visited. I highly recommend him and this tour.

Excellent tour. Knowledgeable guide. Fun group
Hussain was absolutely outstanding. I learned so many fascinating and unexpected pearls about Galata from him—things I would never have picked up on my own. His storytelling ability is exceptional; he doesn’t just share facts, he truly connects the dots, weaving geography, history, and lived context into a narrative that stays with you long after the tour ends.
He clearly has deep knowledge of the area and is a true history geek in the best possible way. What made the experience even more special was how he took us into hidden corners of Istiklal Street that I would never have discovered on my own. The thoughtfully timed break at a charming local tea spot was a lovely touch and added to the authenticity of the experience.
The tour ended at the magnificent Galata Tower, which felt like the perfect crescendo to a beautifully curated journey. My previous guide experience in the area was honestly not great, and Hussain filled in so many gaps—transforming my understanding of the place entirely.
Great going, Hussain. I wish you all the very best. I truly loved your recommendations and would highly recommend this tour to anyone who values depth, storytelling, and genuine insight over a scripted walk-through.

A Day in Istanbul
What an amazing day we had with Renan in Istanbul! It was a rainy, dreary day but Renan brought some sunshine with her pleasant personality. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time with her. She was informative and thorough. We saw the palace, blue mosque and the grand bazaar. She helped us navigate it all and we really felt like we learned a lot about Istanbul as well as the culture. The company picks up
And drops off in very comfortable and roomy vans. An unforgettable experience.

Sercan is an outstanding tour guide
We travel a lot and have had many tour guides around the world, but Sercan is by far the best guide we have ever had. His knowledge is exceptional—deep, insightful, and shared in a way that is engaging and never boring. Beyond his expertise, what truly sets Sercan apart is his humanity. He is warm, genuinely caring, and incredibly attentive. This was not just a tour—it was an unforgettable experience thanks to Sercan.

One of the best guides we have experienced.
Wonderful experience. Very knowledgeable guide, both of the history, end of great places to visit besides the most well-known. Very accommodating. We had an excellent and enjoyable time and greatly enjoyed thousands of years of history! Very recommended guide.

A brilliant guide!
The guide was superb. Friendly, knowledgeable, patient and kind. My friend was not very mobile (or interested!) and only came to keep me company. The guide was very understanding about this and went out of his way to help. He took us where we wanted to go, and not to anywhere I did not want to go to. He really was brilliant and I was very pleased.
In terms of the booking there were 2 issues. This trip was more than twice the price of another (equally good) in Turkey, which covered more car milage.
I took Turkish lire thinking that as I was in Turkey, it would be courteous to use lire. As I am English I use pounds, not euros or dollars. However, you need EUROS!

A great experience. Highly recommend.
The shuttle picked us up right on time. The vehicle was very clean. The leg room isn't the best so if you have long legs I would suggest taking the aisle seat to stretch out. The front seat was also available for someone to sit in. They drive very fast with the speed limit in some sections 130km but I'm sure they were going faster.
The morning rest stop was ok with the toilets clean. The rest stop on the way home wasn't the best. We were given 20 minutes so not enough time to order in the restaurant at the petrol station so most people just bought a bag of chips. As we arrived back in Istanbul at 9.30pm after a very long day this would be our dinner. The included lunch when you arrive was ok.
The actual tour of Gallipoli was amazing. To get an understanding of the terrain and the challenging conditions that the soldiers fought in was staggering. Our guide was very knowledgeable and was able to provide information from all perspectives. He also helped one tour member find the particular grave of a soldier ao they could lay a poppy. I highly recommend this tour to anyone, its truly worth it.

A Fabulous Tour of Fener, Balat and other Areas off the beaten Track
This was a fabulous tour of some of the less-travelled areas of Istanbul (Fener and Balat) as well as the spice market and portions of the Grand Bazaar. We were the only people on the tour so our guide, Mohammed was able to make a few modifications to accommodate my wife who uses a car. He was very knowledgeable about the history of this area of the city, the peoples who once lived there and the architecture. The tour also included the Greek Orthodox Cathedral, the spice market and areas around the Grand Bazaar. I would highly recommend this tour
