“Did ‘em great with Didem ”

Didem is an outstanding tour guide. Smart, funny and very knowledgeable. Her experience and love for her country’s history and culture shines through as she made these historical Instanbul landmarks come alive. She even led us to some entertaining shopping experiences around the Bazaar. She also has a big heart. During our tour she noticed that a poor cat had gotten stranded in a deep hole around a statue and couldn’t get out. Without missing a beat she summoned her guide network, who notified the authorities and the cat was rescued soon after. Highly recommend Didem to anyone. PS … Only downside of our experience is the Gowithguide.com site. It’s a little clunky and a few messages never reached me. Luckily her professionalism more than made up for the booking site’s shortcoming.

“Outstanding from start to finish !!!”

The tour in Istanbul with our Guide Didem was outstanding from start to finish. From the moment she met us at the airport, Didem's warmth, professionalism, and deep knowledge of the city made the experience unforgettable. She shared fascinating stories about Istanbul’s rich history, culture, and architecture while keeping the tour engaging and easy to follow. Every stop on the itinerary felt thoughtfully chosen—whether exploring the grandeur of Blue Mosque, wandering through the vibrant spice market, or enjoying grandeur of the Cistern. Didem balanced structured storytelling with plenty of time for questions and photos. What impressed us most was the personal touch: Didem went out of her way to tailor the experience to our interests, making sure everyone felt comfortable and included. By the end of the day, we felt like we had not only learned about Istanbul but truly experienced its heart and rhythm. I highly recommended Didem for anyone visiting Istanbul. She will make your trip into a memory to treasure.

Dear Ronnie, Thank you so much for your outstanding review and your beautiful words. It was truly a pleasure for me. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed our tour. I always try to tailor the tour to each guest’s interests, so it means a lot to know that you felt the day was personally designed for you. Knowing that you felt the “heart and rhythm” of Istanbul through our day together is the greatest compliment I could receive as a guide. You will always be very welcome in Istanbul – I would be delighted to see you and your beautiful family again and show you even more of this amazing city. Warmest regards, Didem
