Thanks Rosa - Rosa is a great story teller and historian and answered our questions with enthusiasm. My 12 and 14 year olds were just as enthralled as I was. My 12 year old said this: “You can tell Rosa really loves what she does!” High praise indeed to inspire a child who watches you do a job you love! Thanks again, Rosa! We highly recommend your tour!

Best guide ever - We enjoyed the story telling and humorous style of our guide. Taksim area is really beautiful and backstreets are better than Main Street of istiklal.

AMAZING - My wife and I went on the tour as this was our first time visiting Istanbul and it was AMAZING! I would highly recommend this tour to all my family and friends. I really loved that they taught us how to use the metro, tram, bus as it can be intimidating. Our tour guide Rosa was so awesome and so sweet! She really allowed us to feel safe traveling in a new city and took amazing photos of us at all the landmarks we visited.
