"We had the best tour with Alp - he kept a diverse group engaged and had a huge knowledge of food and street art in Kadikoy. He was also very generous in helping us work out the ferry, and altering restaurant reservations. Alp is friendly and smart, structuring a tour with the right amount of breaks/ food for kids and content for adults. Recommended without hesitation! "
"Emre was engaging and informative . Very educated and knowledgeable gentleman with firsthand knowledge of this amazing city.
He went over and above to make sure we had the best immersive experience with the local vendors.
We would highly recommend him to our friends 😀"
"We had a great tour with Aysa which was fun and educational! She provided great historical and political context to the sites we visited and the kids loved listening to her!
Highly recommend her 👍🏽"
"A truly amazing way to experience Istanbul at our own pace whilst visiting all the important sites we wanted to. Topped off with expert knowledge and delicious choices for true local food. We cannot recommend Gülce enough. This really is the way to go when in Istanbul."
"The 10 Tastings Tour was an excellent introduction to Istanbul and Turkish food and drink specialities and excellent value for money - don’t eat anything before you go, there is so much to try! Gulce was the perfect guide - so friendly and knowledgeable - and answered all of our questions about food and so much more. She gave us recommendations on where to go during our stay, as well as what to avoid. We would thoroughly recommend her, whatever tour you are choosing. "
"We could not have asked for a better guide than Emre- he is kind and caring and shows his love and knowledge of Istanbul - drawing you in with his stories that connect you with the past. He shared with us places that we would never have found ourselves.
Cannot recommend more highly.
"
"The food tour with Muhammed has been the highlight of our trip. He was a fantastic guide and the places we visited were wonderful. We travel extensively and always eat local and the food was unique. We highly recommend to anyone interested in food "
"Absolutely Marvelous experience and memory for a lifetime. Sozum was very knowledgeable and professional while being entertaining, accommodating and friendly. I highly recommended her with all that can be allowed. "
"We met Lorena and in no time realized she was charming and knowledgeable. She has lived in multiple countries which means she has savvy and would be helpful to us as seasoned travelers.
When we arrive for a stay we like to start with a general tour giving us clues as to where we should spend our time, places to the locals eat and a bit about the history of the area. Also, where to pick up things we need, what to avoid and possibly some customs that we should be aware of.
Above all we want to enjoy the time with our guide. On all counts Lorena delivered. "
