Buse was a wonderful tour...

nadine_s, Sep 2025

Buse was a wonderful tour guide through the Blue Mosque and Sultanahmet tour. Knowledgeable and super personable!

Don’t know Arabic?

Cynthia_B, Oct 2024

Guide left before 5 minute grace period. Couldn’t hear well, not his fault since it was busy. The guide admitted he didn’t know Arabic so couldn’t read the signs in Arabic. (He should’ve already translated them). Nice man but needs to up his game and improve his presentation

Busy

Seeing inside the beautiful mosque was a wonderful experience. It was so crowded inside and I had trouble hearing the guide explain all the features.

Great Tour Guide!

Shane_B, Oct 2024

The guide was easy to find. He was very knowledgeable on the history of the Blue Mosque and also gave some construction facts about the mosque in comparison to the Hagia Sophia which was of interest to me as an engineer. Tour guide was also easy going, funny and engaging with us.
