“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 personalized tour”

It was great considering the short, short time. He showed me all the tourist places in Istanbul, at least the important ones due to time limitation. The Topkaki Palace was already closed by then so I did not get to see it. But got to see the beautiful mosques not only the Hagia. He is very knowledgeable of the history of, and proud of his city - Istanbul. Would have been great if this was a whole day tour, but time limitations due to flight arrivals late in the afternoon prevented that. Anyways, try him, you will not regret it. Thanks
