- kolbinsky0 contributionsRelaxed Walk with wonderful stories.Ozan was incredibly knowledgeable and flexible. Enjoyed his company and just a chill guy to hang out with. Great relaxed tour and he will accommodate to your pace. Excellent English and overall pleasant day. Our group wanted to do a last minute boat tour and he arranged it right away… Great day and super informative!Written 19 January 2025
- rdubinas0 contributionsThe must-do experience to capture the essence of IstanbulIf I could give a 10/5 review, I would! Fayeza was my tour guide and she did a phenomenal job! Her knowledge of Istanbul’s history and cultural made the experience truly worthwhile. I did the 3 day tour with her and I feel like I was truly able to capture the essence of Istanbul and its history. I cant recommend this tour enough, thank you, Fayeza!Written 19 January 2025
- Ckoessler230 contributionsGreat way to understand Istanbul's historyOur guide Berkay was very knowledgeable and gave us a great overview of Istanbul's historical landmarks and their stories through the different empires. We would have never been able to understand what we were visiting if it wasn't for his explanation. I highly recommend going with a guide.Written 18 January 2025
- wanderlust_foreverco0 contributionsFantastic Full Day TourWe had a fantastic day of touring many of the major sites in Old Town. Sila was amazing. Being a history buff myself, I really appreciate someone that can talk about the information in detail. She was super accommodating when we wanted to change the schedule on the fly and was able to schedule our changes around Prayer times at the mosques. I felt we took full advantage of the time we had but still able to enjoy a relaxing lunch with a view of the Blue Mosque. I also really believe having a college educated female guide added to the experience because she was very open about her culture and some of its struggles.Written 18 January 2025
- L2740PZlornab0 contributionsask for Ozan if you can!best tour ever! Ozan was amazing, easily the best tour guide we've come across. He was personable, knowledgeable and super accommodating. He answered all of our questions and took us to an amazing restaurant for lunch. I highly recommend this private tour if you want to see Istanbul highlights!Written 18 January 2025
- veboyd00 contributionsWonderful tour - highly recommendKamal was a great guide who gave us the history of all of these site in such a fantastical story type way that left you so intrigued. We got to learn a lot about the Turkish people as well as the historical sites. Overall a great tour I recommend to anyone!Written 18 January 2025
- F1777NQjanetw0 contributionsGreat tour with great guideWe had a great 3 day tour with Tolga. His knowledge is extensive and he pitched the level just right for us - we learned a lot without being overloaded with information. He understood early on that we were not here for shopping and adjusted the programme accordingly so that we saw and experienced the bazaars without it becoming overbearing. He keeps the momentum going while giving time to admire the points of interest and views. He paces it very well for the walking not to be a problem. We would thoroughly recommend the tour which gives an insight into this huge city.Written 18 January 2025
- Luis Miguel F0 contributionsVolkan is the best guide you can get!We had three days tour with Volkan as guide. Volkan is a great asset to this city, he was amazing, showing us all emblematic points of the city. He has a high knowledge of all history and religions of Istambul/Constantinopla, always with a smile and good mood. There was never too many questions for him and he always explained everything very well to us. The itinerary can be flexible if you don't catch good weather during your visit, adapting it to get the best possible experience. Very highly recomendable, thanks again Volkan for this amazing experienceWritten 17 January 2025
- steeltrippro0 contributionsSultanahmet Personal Walking TourThe only way to visit and try to understand the history of this ancient land. Our guide Hakan had an encyclopedic knowledge of the origins and development of Istanbul and all the various rulers of the area. He pointed out unique sites everywhere we went. He has also traveled in Western Europe and the US extensively which provided a great contrast to what we saw on the tour. Highly recommend him. (Super photographer too!)Written 17 January 2025
- Yvonne f0 contributionsBest of Istanbul 1dayOur guide Fatma was excellent, she made contact the day before by WhatsApp, collected us from our hotel arriving early to make the most of the day. Her knowledge was excellent and continually checked we were happy with the content of the tour. She check regularly if we needed comfort stops and at no point did she rush or hurry us . And final she made sure we made it safely back to our hotel . Can’t praise her enough 😃Written 16 January 2025
- hanalico0 contributionsCustom Istanbul ToursIstanbul is a charming city, and what better way to explore it than do it at our own relaxed pace. We did the 3 day tour, customized according to our preferences (time to start, places to go, duration of tours etc.); we did it with our private guide, Ozan, who was the best guide. He was very knowledgable, accommodating and easy to be with. We’d definitely recommend him to friends of ours who would like to visit Turkey.Written 14 January 2025
- TDW_KSW0 contributionsExcellent two days in IstanbulWe had an excellent customized tour with Hakan. We were first timers to Istanbul and he listened to our interests and got us around to a large number of sites over two days. Hakan was very informative, very communicative, and had an excellent sense of humor. He also got us around the area very effectively, and made sure that we got back to the hotel each day. We had an enjoyable time, and would highly recommend. Hakan.Written 14 January 2025
- I4259UTkellyj0 contributionsAmazing Istanbul adventure with Merve!We absolutely loved seeing Istanbul through Merve’s eyes! We felt like she was a friend showing us around her home. She was very knowledgeable about the history of her beautiful country, but she also cared very much about what we were interested in doing. She researched the things we were interested in shopping for and helped us find them. She brought history to life and shared about her own life too. She was so warm and friendly and made us feel very comfortable. We will miss her on the rest of our trip!Written 14 January 2025
- czarrineh0 contributionsA Trip of a Lifetime!This was one of the most memorable trips I have been on! It was a very educational experience. Our tour guide, Tijen, was the most hospitable, and you couldn't ask for more. She was very knowledgeable and went out of her way to make sure our trip went well. Not only did she make sure our tour went smoothly through the many cities we visited, but she also made sure our hotel accommodations were set up accordingly, recommended local restaurants, and made extra stops to supply our needs and wants. Thank you to all who were involved and I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for historical, religious, and/or a variety of what Turkey offers!Written 14 January 2025

We had an excellent trip cruising on the Bosphorus with Guided Istanbul Tours to begin our New Year on January 1. The boat was spacious and comfortable and the ride was smooth. Our guide, Merve, was engaging and informed. She told us something interesting about every building and sight we saw. We felt both relaxed and educated.

My brother and I were lucky enough to be able to do a private tour of the Bosphorous during our recent visit to Istanbul. The day started with a check in on WhatsApp with Melissa and shortly followed by Sercan meeting us in the lobby of our hotel and then a quick transfer to the port to get onboard the boat. When we reached the boat we were blown away with it - clean, great condition and a quick way to see a large chunk of the Bosphorous. The captain and first mate were very welcoming and a really nice touch. On the tour, Sercan's knowledge was encyclopaedic like and knew every building along the large stretch of water, he was also a lovely guy to talk with in general. We could not recommend this tour highly enough and really good value for money. When we return, we will definitely take another tour run by the business, as we felt safe in their company.

I had the pleasure of having Emre Akdeniz as my guide when I took this trip. Emre is very professional, knowledgeable and personable. His passion for the city is obvious when you first meet him. This combined with his sense of humour made for a great first visit to Istanbul and made learning all about the city’s history fun. I would definitely recommend him as a guide for any trip you may be considering.
