“Istanbul in the rain”
Despite the weather, we had a wonderful experience with Sedat. His knowledge of the city and its history is exceptional. His outgoing and friendly nature made us feel welcomed, comfortable and safe. His “connections” at the various attractions managed to get us out of the rain quicker than expected. Would recommend Sedat to anyone

Thank you very much Chris. Despite the rainy weather, the warmth of you both warmed my heart. You completed Turkey’s most challenging tour despite the harsh weather conditions, and that is truly commendable. You are both true adventurers.
“A poor experience”
Our group was very disappointed with Semih presentation. His English was hard to understand, we told him we could only do a four tour & when booking he said he could cover all the major sites, which we didn't. He walked ver y slowly & had to be prompted when ever we passed anything interesting. We ended the tour after 3 1/2 hr.

Istanbul's private tours with a guide offer bespoke journeys and new insights, ensuring you see the best of the city, from ancient landmarks to modern marvels.
Navigating Istanbul’s bustling streets and complex public transportation system can be challenging, especially for first-time visitors. A private guide can make your experience more comfortable and stress-free by handling all the logistics, from arranging transportation to avoiding long lines at popular attractions. This allows you to focus on enjoying the city without worrying about the details of getting around.
A private guide can also help you discover hidden treasures and lesser-known attractions that you might miss on your own. Beyond the famous tourist spots, Istanbul has many charming neighborhoods, bustling markets, and historic sites that are off the typical tourist path. A guide can take you to places like the Spice Bazaar or the vibrant streets of Kadikoy, offering a local’s perspective and making your visit more authentic and memorable.
