ISTANBUL TOUR - We had an incredible tour experience with OGUZHAN as our guide. He was exceptionally knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, making the tour both informative and enjoyable. His passion for sharing the history and culture truly stood out, and he made sure we felt comfortable throughout. Out of all the tours we’ve done, this was by far the best, and OGUZHAN was the best guide we’ve had! The food was also fantastic, adding to a perfect day. I highly recommend booking through this company and specifically ask for OGUZHAN he exceeded all our expectations!

Oguzhan is the perfect tour guide - Our tour guide, Oguzhan, was absolutely fantastic! His energy and deep knowledge of Istanbul’s history made the experience unforgettable. Beyond that, he has a genuinely kind and generous spirit. This tour is a must if you want to maximize your exploration in just one day. According to my Apple watch, I took over 17,000 steps and climbed 17 flights of stairs! The lunch provided was also good. Oguzhan equipped us with comfortable earpieces, which made it easy to hear him, even in the bustling crowds. At times, the crowds could be overwhelming, but the earpieces ensured we never lost track of our guide. With a small group of just 10, the experience felt intimate and engaging. I highly recommend this tour!

Walking tour of mosques and palace - Excellent guide Cun (pronounced Chun) who arrived on time, was never rushed and was very knowledgeable. Showed us the important parts of the mosques. Useful to take cash to skip the queue for the Hagria Sophia. The Blue mosque, Hagria Sophia and Topkapi palace are all magnificent. The museum collection in the Topkapi palace is incredible. We even bought a carpet we didn't need!

Well worth the money! - Ozzie was a fantastic guide! He gave the right information in the right amount of time and pointed out where to take the best pictures. He was engaging throughout the entire day and his English was flawless. It is an excellent opportunity for you to be able to explore the old town of Istanbul all within one day.

Huge injection of ottoman history - Very interesting tour that is packed with amazing views and historical insights. Topkapi palace feels like you could spend a whole day just there. The only downsides are the guide being late by a few minutes and an excessively long stop at an unreasonably expensive carpet store.

Worthwhile Trip inc Entry Fees - Full day tour starting at around 9 am. No transport provided, it is all covered by foot. All the main attractions were covered with headsets provided. Our guide, Oguzhan, was very knowledgeable, a true historian who was happy to answer any questions. Lunch was good, opportunity to see hand made rugs with option to buy.
