First visit to Istanbul - The tour was well organized and our guide very knowledgeable. I really appreciated this type of walking tour which allows you to better appreciate not only the planned attractions but also the context and environment in which they are found

The tour guide’s introduction is very detailed 👍🏻 - Our experience during this visit was very good. We originally planned to meet at a meeting point, but they WhatsApped us the day before and would pick us up at the hotel. This service was very considerate. In addition, the tour guide introduced each scenic spot very clearly.
