My favorite tour - I can say that it is the best tour we have ever done. He has shown us a beautiful part of the city. Furthermore, Ensar is very funny and kind. All the time he has recommended places that are really useful, we have tried tea and Turkish delight, he has shown us 3 mosques, the great bazaar and the spice bazaar, but all from the inside to really get to know them. Without a doubt it is the tour that I most recommend in Istanbul. I wish we had done it on the first day to get more out of all the advice he gave us.

Excellent guide - Ensar speaks Spanish perfectly, he understands what is asked of him, he does not have a learned speech. He had a lot of information about the places we visited, he is a very cultured and educated person; He also joked about certain historical facts related to the sultans, which made learning much more enjoyable. He was honest in giving us information regarding cheaper places to buy jewelry, Turkish delight and rugs than Kapalı Çarşı. Totally recommended!

Mosques and Bazaars. Getting to know Turkish culture. - Highly recommended visit. The guide Ensar was very friendly, attentive and polite. He speaks Spanish very well. All explanations were based and knowledgeable. Very receptive to answering questions. He gave us very good advice for shopping, visits to other areas, restaurants and areas to go out. I would definitely repeat with him and it is a shame that he does not have other tours or guided visits at the moment. A very good experience.

Exploring Istanbul: An Essential Adventure with an Unforgettable Guide - The tour guide was a true gem. His captivating narrative and fascinating anecdotes about the places we explored kept our attention throughout. Plus, his sense of humor made the tour even more enjoyable. Not only was he an expert on the history and culture of Istanbul, but he also knew how to convey that passion to his guests, making every step through the city an enriching and fun experience.
