Only way to go - Tanju was amazing. No way I would have ever seen the details he provided. The background and history lesson he gave made the tour far more impactful. Would not go again any other way.

Hagia Sophia: an unforgettable tour - We knew Hagia Sophia was a shrine of beauty and history. But having Mr. Abo (Tanju!) as a guide has made our visit unforgettable. Knowledge, passion, clarity, kindness: you can't ask for more.
