Nice day with the pleasant guide - We had a great day with Fatih. He was very informative, friendly and cooperative. He explained and showed us the most important things so that we could get an overview of the city. Thank you very much for your help!

Informative and fun tour of Old Town Highlights - We used Barish for a private day tour of Istanbul that started in the Old City and visited the Topaki Palace, the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and a lovely lunch that kept us out of the rain and gave us a nice vantage point to see the Bosporus. Barish was knowledgable and didn't rush us. Overall a great experience.
