“Two very happy seniors”
We booked Tunahan for a daytrip from Galataport where our Viking cruise ship overnighted in Istanbul. He was wonderful and I wholeheartedly recommend him. He kept us informed through texts and we met him at the port terminal easily. We wanted to travel to Asia by public transportation and Tunahan was masterly in shepherding through various modes of transport: tram, ferry and subway. The efficient system got us to where we wanted to be with little time spent waiting. We visited the Asia neighborhoods of Uskudar and Kadikoy and felt we were a world away from the bustle of old town. We visited during the day and suspect these neighborhoods become quite a bit more animated later in the day. Tunahan adapted to our preferred leisurely pace, and we felt we got to see the best parts of both neighborhoods. I let Tunahan know we wanted a break about halfway through our 4-hour tour. The extremely resourceful Tunahan provided a superb recommendation as he has rated all the cafes and restaurants he has visited throughout his city. It was pleasant to sit in the coffeehouse and enjoy sweets and tea while chatting with Tunahan and people watching. Tunahan is an approachable, friendly, bright young man who speaks excellent English. He had an in-depth knowledge and shared the information without being drawn out on details unless you wanted them. Tunahan's wit and desire for us to enjoy the experience is what made this excursion perfect.

“Istanbul Tour ”
The best tour guide I ever had! He took me to all the places I wanted to go! And he explained all the history about the sights that we went to! He didn't rush my tour! Tour money was well spent on my tour guide! I couldn't be more happy

“Tour of the Old City”
A group of 4 toured the old city with Tunahan. He made the tour very easy for us. He timed locations where we avoided crowds as much as possible. His insights into the area were outstanding. He was very good at describing things, but also patient and stopped to answer any question we had. He also arranged lunch at a roof top Michelin restaurant that was outstanding. I would always recomment Tunahan.
