Highlights
  • Hagia Sophia Mosque - A truly awe inspiring, 1,400 years old Byzantine cathedral which houses mosaics, relics and iron work. Hagia Sophia was, for nearly a thousand years, the largest enclosed space in the world, and is still seen as one of the world’s most important architectural monuments. It is one of Turkey’s most popular attractions, drawn by the sheer spectacle of its size, architecture, mosaics and art. It was built during the reign of Byzantine Emperor Justinian in the 6th century AD.

A must in Istanbul and great company and tour guide - This is a must for any visitor to Istanbul - Erme the tour guide was absolutely amazing (if I could give higher than 5 stars I would) - this was a perfect tour, well timed, Emre was professional, knowledgeable and personable that made the whole experience perfect. Picked up from Hotel, professionally done, experienced the best and most friend Turkish people ever - everyone was so friendly and it made this a cultural experience and not just a history lesson. Had great food at lunchtime. The Blue Mosque and Hagia.Sophia were amazing, my favorite was the Basicila Cisterns (especially if you are a Dan Brown fan or history nerd) - Grand bazaar was an experience that you have to do in Istanbul. Massively recommend this trip and if you are lucky enough to get Emre then you blessed!!!! Brilliant company and brilliant tour guide,

Exceptional - Guide was exceptional! So much history and knowledge and able to meet all my needs. Asked about the things I was interested in and wanted to do/see. Made sure those happened! Took me to a lovely lunch that was fresh and authentic. Helped me understand how to make purchases. So kind and helpful. Can’t say enough wonderful things about this experience!

Highly recommended customised tours. - We used this company for a private tour for four of us and can definitely recommend their tours. We told them our preferences and they tailor-made our program. They are absolutely professional and efficient in all they do.

An enjoyable experience in Istanbul and lasting friendship with Emre! - The experience was lovely, especially since we were visiting Istanbul for the first time. Our tour guide, Emre Onal, was incredible and fun to be with. He took us to Haga Sofia, the Blue Mosque, the Sultan Bazar Carpet wholesale shop, the highest point of Asia in Bursa side to see the panoramic view of Istanbul, the leather place and more. We felt welcome, well informed and got all the fun we deserve during this trip. We highly recommend having Emre be your tour guide and the offerings of his tour packages, as for us, we will definitely visit again and have him take us around.

An amazing day out in Istanbul - I can’t think of anything that hasn’t been said about Emre! What a wonderful human being! We spent the whole day with Emre going around old town Istanbul. He presented us with every little detail about the history of the places and told us stories. Emre was funny and made us laugh alot. Thankyou for a fun filled day and we hope to see you soon Emre!
