Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Benoit is INCREDIBLE! One the most knowledgable guys I have ever met. He truly loves his job and has such a high passion for history. He will take you to areas and places only locals know about. We got to meet many of his friends along the tour who invited us to see how they work. He will show you where the locals eat and hole in the wall spots to eat:)\nWe felt very lucky to have him show us the city and would do this tour again and again. Do yourself a favor and book with Benoit! He will change the way you experience the city."
"...Benoit is a genuine historian who undoubtedly has forgotten more about history and culture in Istanbul and Turkey than you may ever know - I believe that to be true for the 2 of us. From the start, his patience in accommodating our nearly 2 hour late arrival from IST and yet showing us the city well into the night was above and beyond what many would expect. We would gladly return to Istanbul only to ask him to again assist us and teach us about its incredible melting pot of cultures, neighborhoods, and layers of history that exist in this city. We would never have trusted ourselves to simply explore this area without a master level guide such as he. Thank you Benoit for the time you gave us and I can only hope we meet you again. - Mitch & Michelle"
"Just book it! Benoit is going to takes you around the city to places you\u2019d never see, not even in ten trips to Istanbul, you\u2019d just would never gain this kind of insider knowledge. If that\u2019s not convincing enough, perhaps the opportunity to post on Social a picture you took from the rooftop of the grand bazaar. Yep, I did that!\n\nWarning: Benoit is probably the fastest walker in Turkey, be ready to hustle!"

"Benoit was an extremely wonderful tour guide that took us on an amazing adventure through Istanbul! Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about the colorful history of the city, but he is also a foodie! What luck for us! He showed us various sights, sounds and flavors of this eclectic city and we could not have had a better time! We highly recommend Benoit as a tour guide!!"
