Incredible Istanbul Experience with Muhammet - We had the pleasure of having Muhammet as our guide during a private tour of Istanbul with 25 people, and we couldn’t have been more impressed! Muhammet was incredibly knowledgeable and took us to all the best spots, ensuring we experienced the true beauty and history of the city. He shared fascinating insights about each place, making the tour both educational and enjoyable. His passion for Istanbul's rich culture and history was evident, and he had a great way of keeping everyone engaged. We highly recommend Muhammet for anyone looking for a top-notch tour experience!

Amazing tour of the hills around Istanbul and the Bosphorous! - We have been to many cities and used private guides, but i must admit that Muhammet is one of the friendliest, most knowledgeable and engaging tour guides we have ever had! The tour we chose really opened our eyes to the 'real' Istanbul, it's history, people, religion, customs and food!!! We opted for the Hills around Istanbul, visiting both European and Asian sides of the city and the Bosphorus. If you want a different experience we seriously recommend Muhammet as your next guide in Istanbul!
