Only one day in Istanbul! - Our guide (Celal) was extremely knowledgeable and hospitable, and patient with us while we stopped and tried several delightful food stands. The history of this city is amazing and the whole tour was exactly what we wanted, and more!

Turkey in a snap shot - We visited Turkey for half day on a layover and had a wonderful visit. The weather was not cooperating but we made the best of the few hours there. We were able to have time to see some city highlights, a quick walk in the Grand Bazaar and some shopping. Best of all we had a wonderful local lunch!

Master class of turkistan and Byzantium history in 4 hours, highly recommended - I booked a half-day tour of the major sites in Istanbul, and it was an unforgettable experience. Our guide Celil was a true historian who provided us with an engaging mini masterclass on Turkistan and Byzantium history. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Hagia Sophia, which is now a mosque. It was a fascinating part of world history. Celil was phenomenal, friendly, and incredibly helpful. He even checked in with us the day after the tour to see if we needed anything. I found the tour price to be very reasonable, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Istanbul.

Istanbul guide - The guide was friendly, professional, pleasant to deal with and knew a lot to tell! He also knew perfect eateries. Highly recommended.

A perfect experience - It was a very positive experience, both the Elephant Agency and the guide Ilhan, were watching that everything went well at all times. One hundred percent advisable. We were delighted with them

Wonderful Experience! - Our tour guide Tolga gave us on an amazing private tour throughout Istanbul’s old city. He was patient, he answered all of our questions, and gave us so much insight on this beautiful city. Then he took us to lunch where we enjoyed some amazing kebabs and shopped at the Grand Bazaar. We would 10/10 recommend this great guide and experience.

Half Day Tour with Celal - We did the half day tour taking in the Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern and Blue Mosque and finishing up at the Grand Bazaar. Our guide Celal was exceptional - friendly, knowledgeable, flexible and fun. He had an incredible wealth of knowledge of the city and passion for it too and we really enjoyed his tour. The organisation was great too - easy communication and quick responses to questions. Highly recommend 😊

Amazing half day tour with the best guide - I was in Istanbul for a very short time so decided to do a half day private tour. First off as compared to what hotels charge this was way better. The tour operator Emine was so nice and her attention to detail was A+. She wanted to make sure I was taken care of at every step. I saw all the major sites and more in 6 hours with my guide Ece. Her personality, knowledge and warmness was beyond what I expected. Ece made the entire experience memorable. One of the best tours I have taken and so far I have visited over 50 countries. Highly recommend.

Efficient, informative and stress free - Thank you so much to Sercan our wonderful guide and Mr Sinasi our driver. Sercan explained each venue perfectly for my son and I. He also knew exactly where to go in the Grand Bazaar for the best bargains. The minibus was luxurious. Highly recommend. 10/10.
