This experience with Francophone guides I highly recommend - We optimised our stay in Istanbul by 4 days thanks to the professionalism of our two guides Eren and Ekrut. Visits of emblematic monuments of the city but also has our request off too tourist sites more with the Turkish population and their good addresses. They did not count their hours to enrich us with their culture.

With a guide it's practical - Good morning, My visit to Istanbul was full of surprises, especially thanks to the excellent guide, Sevil. She knew how to make this day both intense and practical, leading the way for us in style. Despite the intense walking (which was a workout in itself!), the experience was as rewarding as my calves are now toned. We discovered Istanbul from an exceptional angle during the cruise, with a panoramic view of the ports, the historic buildings, and above all, the bridges that connect Europe to Asia. Our steps guided us to must-see places such as the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, the Grand Bazaar, the Topkapi Palace, one of the Basilica Cisterns, the Spice Market, and the Turkish Market. A little anecdote to brighten up the story: during my hasty reservation, I landed in a hotel near the Galata Bridge thinking that it was next to the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge. Well, the mistake turned out to be the best, because I ended up missing out on everything! 😄 Thanks again, Sevil. It was an unforgettable day.

Great French-speaking guide in Istanbul. - 3 days tour with Nigar. Very friendly guide who takes very good care of his clients for a fair price. She speaks excellent French and really taught us a lot about her country and her city, she is also available to her customers. Do not hesitate to contact him by email.

Top-notch visits and explanations! - Nigar our French-speaking guide [email protected] was exceptional and guided us and explained a large number of things about Istanbul in a very professional manner. I highly recommend Nigar because he is a person who is beyond being very professional and also a good human person. Thank you Nigar for making us love Istanbul and Turkey.

Excellent and intense day - Excellent day in the Istanbul old town, visiting Hagia Sophia, Topkapi, Hagia Irini, Grand bazaar and Soliman the Magnificent mosque. Our guide managed to alternate between French and English (as per our request, our daughter preferring English) in a superb way - sharing his knowledge, insights and experience openly and generously while putting it in the wider historical context. Highly recommended. Journée intense et passionnante à visiter la vieille ville d’Istanbul avec un guide remarquable qui a généreusement partagé ses connaissances avec nous tout en les mettant dans leur contexte historique. Fortement recommande!
