Must-do tour!!!

Sydney_M, May 2026

I have traveled 30+ countries and I start every trip the same in hopes that, by starting with a tour FIRST, I get a good sense and orientation of the city. This tour exceeded my expectations. Ege was incredibly knowledgeable, kind and very funny! He told us all the important facts, some of the unknown facts (only a local would know), and took us to the most incredible local restaurant that we continued to use the remainder of the 4-day trip. So delicious! We even ended the tour hours after we should’ve because by the end it felt we were good friends - neither of us wanted the tour to end! 10/10 recommend. Thank you, Ege!

Thanks a lot for your good review.Hope to see you again.

Difficult tour

Iris_H, Feb 2026

Though we had a good tour guide Hamza, the weather was cold snow and sleet and the Hagia Sophia mosque was noisy, crowded and disorganized. Ouse a wheelchair and was asked to move into their wheelchair because mine was“Unclean”. The security at the mosque was rough and rude. Our tour guide Hamza took us to a restaurant to have lunch and warm up. He then took us back to our meeting place on public transport at his own expense!
