Great Tour! - We loved our guide Muhammet. He was very friendly and personable. He took his time with us. He was very knowledgeable about the entire history of the Hagia Sophia. He answered any questions we had. He also shared information about Islam when we had questions pertaining to that even though that wasn’t necessarily covered by the tour. Great tour and well worth the money.

Excellent tour with Muhammet 😊 - I had a late afternoon tour of Hagia Sophia with Muhammet which ended up being a private tour as no one else joined us on a Monday in late September. Muhammet is very knowledgeable and cares about sharing his knowledge with you in a way that keeps your interest. Strongly recommend it and I hope to do another tour with him soon. ❤️

Amazing and knowledgeable tour guide! - This was an amazing tour and Muhammet is worth his price and more! Me and my family arrived at the back of the line to get tickets to Hagia Sofia, wondering how long it would take to get inside, but we were spotted by this amazing tour guide and he offered to help us skip the line and provide a guided tour through the museum. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the Hagia Sofia and was so passionate about informing all of us about the historical importance of the area. Would definitely recommend booking with him and would 100% book again! Thank you so much for an amazing tour 🙏🏼

Wonderful tour by an excellent guide - Muhammet was fantastic! We were very late because of a plane delay and lost luggage. Muhammet accommodated us so kindly. He gave a us a wonderful tour of the Hagia Sophia. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Istanbul history, culture, and art. We were tired and thirsty, but asked if he could show us more of Istanbul - so he took us to a wonderful place and treated us to drinks and the best baklava ever, and continued our tour with added sites. Very very highly recommended.
