Most fun in years!
This was very fun! We had a wonderful experience. The dancers were fantastic! The DJ was great! Our waitress was so kind and friendly and the photographers took beautiful photos of my son. They all created such a good vibe that we ended with a congo line as though we were all friends. My cheeks were hurting from smiling so much! Also, we followed the advice of an earlier reviewer and booked the pick up and drop off and that was completely worth it. We had a lovely driver! Overall, an unforgettable experience!

Fanstastic tour with great guide
We arranged a private tour with Viator. Our guide was Murat.
We had arranged to visit the Bascillia Cistern and Topaki Palace. Murat arrived on time. He was professional, courteous and knowledgeable. We learnt a great deal about the ancient history of Instanbul but also life in the current day.
We would highly recommend him.

Must do historical food tour in İstanbul
So so good! Zey is absolutely lovely. She is kind and knowledgeable and communicates well to make sure you get where you need safely. She takes the time to make sure each individual on the tour is included & gets all of the explanations and food. She even gave us treats at the end! All of the locations were really cool and places I wouldn't have known to go otherwise. The food was all amazing. HIGHLY recommend if you're in İstanbul!

Wonderful afternoon in Istanbul
This was a wonderful way to see the most popular points of interest in Istanbul on a half-day tour. Uğur met us promptly and escorted us all over the old town while telling us historical facts of the city and country, not just the sites we visited. If we had longer in Istanbul, we would have loved to spend more time with him on a longer tour; he was wonderfully friendly, funny, and accommodating. He even took us to a local ice cream shop for delicious Turkish ice cream and baklava! Five stars for Uğur and this tour!

10/10 Highly Recommend!
Mert was the best tour guide we have ever had!
He was so knowledgeable about the locations, their history, the architecture, the cultural impact, and had interesting facts galore. His english was incredible. Our tour ended up being a group of 3 (which then turned into a group of 2) and he tailored the experience to us and our interests. We had such an incredible time, I recommend this tour to anyone looking to visit Istanbul.

A Magical, Personal Day in Istanbul with Songül
We just finished our private Istanbul tour with Songül and it was the highlight of our trip. From the very start, she made the day feel personal—taking the time to learn what we loved and tailoring everything to our interests. Her knowledge of Istanbul is incredible, and the insights she shared brought the city’s history and culture to life in a way no guidebook ever could.
What truly set Songül apart was how genuine and thoughtful she was. She turned what could have been an ordinary tour into a magical, unforgettable experience. We never felt rushed, every question was welcomed, and she had a wonderful way of making us feel like old friends seeing the city together.
If you’re visiting Istanbul, do yourself a favor and book a private tour with Songül. You won’t regret it. Teşekkürler, Songül—we’ll treasure this day forever!

Fabulous super yacht trip
The yacht was absolutely fabulous, gleaming clean and the same as the super yacht in the picture. The meeting location was very easy to find direct tram from sultanamet.
Staff very friendly and great service. As well as snacks, tea and water on board you could also buy alcoholic drinks. We had a fabulous afternoon.

Topkapi Palace/Harem Tour - Sabih Tour Guide
Sabih was so informative; the history behind the Palace and Harem area could be presented in so many different ways and he used historical fact and contextualized it very well, teaching us much about both Turkish history and Ottoman Empire in a friendly and engaging way. Most importantly he was present without being bossy, completely available and simultaneously allowing us to do independent sightseeing and learning. Spending hours with a professional guide you actually like is priceless.

We had a great experience...
We had a great experience with Melissa exploring the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. We only had a short layover in Istanbul, so this was a great way to see these sights. Melissa was very knowledgeable and she did a very good job setting the pace for our small group during the excursion.

Great sunset cruise
Fantastic experience for the price. I didn't really to see what the price was outside of viator but highly doubt you could beat the price . For what viator charged I doubt we even covered our portion of the gas price. Outside of the great deal I would still reccomend. It was a really nice sunset tour on a decent boat and with a pleasant company. Both my wife and I really enjoyed the evening cruise.

Great cruise with a great staff !
Although the weather was gloomy, the staff was great! The meeting place was easy to find. The tour guide did a great job of explaining everything we saw. Snacks and drinks were also provided. There was plenty of spare of the boat for everyone to sit comfortably. I wish the weather was better because the views were amazing !!
