Omer is a great guide. ...

Michele_K, Jan 2026

Omer is a great guide. This tour went to all of the "must sees" of Istanbul if you don't have much time in the city. Having Omer there to tell us the history and get us around was well worth the money.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Hi Michele, Thank you so much for your kind & amazing review. It was a pleasure for me to meet & guide you. Hope to see you again and please take care of yourself
