Uncover the best of Topkapi Palace the local Way

"Our tour with Ayşe was brilliant - we saw all the sites in the historic area that we hoped for and others that we didn’t even know existed. Starting by the German Fountain we explored the Blue Mosque, the Cistern’s and the Topkapi Palace and more. Ayşe is so knowledgeable - not only explaining the history of all the sites but also explaining modern Turkey. A real bonus with having a professional guide was being able to skip the queue to enter the sites - that alone was worth the price. Excellent value and highly recommended!"

"Cengiz was an absolutely outstanding tour guide. From the very beginning, he was incredibly responsive, professional, and graciously accommodated our many schedule and itinerary changes before the tour even began. What truly set him apart was his ability to tailor the experience perfectly for our group, some of us had visited Istanbul before, while others were experiencing it for the very first time. Cengiz somehow made the tour feel fresh, engaging, and fun for everyone, blending deep knowledge with great energy and a wonderful sense of humor. If you’re visiting Istanbul, whether it’s your first time or your 10th, I cannot recommend Cengiz highly enough. He made our time in the city unforgettable."

"Emre is extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of nearly everything we pointed at, which was exactly what my wife and I wanted. We told him from the outset that we don't want to only see famous monuments or to take photos, but to learn as much as possible in one day about Istanbul old and new. We got exactly what we wanted. It would have been nice to go with him for a second day, but he was fully booked, which did not surprise me."

"We were a group of 8 including 5 teenagers and Emre managed to keep the entire group fully engaged throughout Ayasofya and Sultanahmet. He also adapted the tour to our preferences as the day went on. This was only possible because of his extensive knowledge and great energy. If you are looking for a guide for your Istanbul tour, you can trust him 100%!"

"Started off just before time and probably the best guide we have had anywhere Very knowledgeable but not drowning us in too much and also light hearted conversation Knows the best places for lunch and how to help us pick the best parts of Instanbul that suited us. Definitely saved us hours and hopefully he is available for a different tour next time"

"It was such a pleasure to have Gülce as our tour guide in Istanbul. She has an immense amount of knowledge to share about the history of Istanbul and you can feel the enthusiasm she has for the city. We really appreciated her easygoing and patient demeanor that put us at ease during our time with her. I highly recommend booking a tour with Gülce. "

"I would highly recommend Oguz for a tour of the old part of Istanbul. He was very informative and told lovely stories which brought the history to life and were very interesting. He was very accommodating and made sure we knew how to get back to our hotel. My husband and I had a wonderful afternoon with him. "
