Great private walking tour

5.00Josh was an outstanding guide—extremely knowledgeable, personable, and professional. We did a private walking tour of the Sultanahmet district with him and couldn’t be happier with the experience. He helped us skip the long lines, tailored the pace and stops to our interests, shared fascinating insights into Turkish history, and even guided us through shopping at the Grand Bazaar. Would highly recommend!
Josh THE BEST tour guide in Istanbul

5.00We booked our Old City trip through our hotel and it was flawless! Our guide, Josh his name for us since hard to say his Turkish name, was/is phenomenal. He was very educated in Turkish History and tailored the trip around my 14 year olds short attention span. He knew a lot of locals and was so fun to actually hang with. His English was excellent and genuinely wanted us to have a great time. I can’t say enough and would recommend him. My son and I were kinda bummed the day had to end because he was so personable and easy to ask questions to!
Wonderful Experience in Istanbul!

5.00We did the walking tour with Suleyman as our guide and we all really enjoyed it! I highly recommend a guide if you want to visit Topkapi Palace otherwise it would be hard to navigate since the palace was huge!!!
See it all!

5.00It was a wonderful private tour by our knowledgeable, kind and friendly guide Suleyman! Istanbul is a beautiful and vibrant city with history and culture abound. The highlight for us was the Basilica Cystern. Sulyman was thorough and accommodated our every wish.

5.00Fantastic guide with incredible patience. Suleyman met us at 9am and led us throughout Istanbul until 6pm. He has an impressive depth and breadth of knowledge about the city and its sights. In addition, he knows all the best vendors in the Grand Bazaar and Spice Bazaar - so we got actual deals. Like, actual deals, not shady ones. Extraordinarily friendly and clearly loves what he does. Highly recommended.
Private guide of real excellence.

5.00We had a fantastic day trip in Istanbul with our guide Aydin. He was incredibly detailed and passionate, bringing the city’s history to life at every stop. What stood out most was how wonderful he was with our 7-year-old daughter—engaging her throughout and making the experience fun for the whole family. Highly recommend Aydin for families!
Best time we have in this trip.
