  I had the pleasure of exploring Istanbul with Kadir Genc, and it was truly an unforgettable experience 🌟. Kadir is not only a professional guide but also someone who deeply loves his city and its history. His impressive knowledge, engaging storytelling, and attention to detail made every moment of the tour special. He was attentive, kind, and fully involved, creating an atmosphere where I could both learn and enjoy the beauty of Istanbul. Thanks to him, I discovered the city’s highlights as well as its hidden gems. It was an outstanding tour, and I highly recommend Kadir to anyone who wants to experience Istanbul in the best possible way! ✨🇹🇷

• Turkish Delightful....Istanbul’s best kept secret

  Leading a group of eight Canadian ladies on a walking tour of Istanbul is no small feat, but Kadir handled everything with professionalism, patience, and warmth. His English was impeccable, which made communication seamless and allowed us to truly engage with the rich history and culture he shared. More importantly, he had an intuitive understanding of our group’s interests and adjusted the day’s plans to suit us perfectly. One of the highlights was a special detour to experience traditional Turkish coffee – not just tasting it, but learning how it’s made, which gave us a deeper appreciation of the culture behind it. He also went above and beyond by securing a reservation at a fabulous local restaurant that we would never have found on our own. The food was outstanding, hummus, tomatoes and pomegranate seeds...yes please. His knowledge of Istanbul’s history, architecture, and hidden gems kept us captivated, and his calm, friendly demeanor made us feel at ease. It’s rare to find someone who can balance professionalism with such a personal touch, and he did it effortlessly. This tour was without a doubt one of the best days of our entire trip. We’re so grateful for the care, insight, and thoughtful planning he provided. Highly recommended!

  Kadir, was our tour guide in Istanbul. This was the first stop of a whirlwind tour of Europe and he was absolutely amazing. He set the bar so high that no other guide came close to delivering the service that Kadir provided to our group of 8 Canadian women. He was incredibly kind, very attentive, and made sure we had a wonderful experience during our visit. His English is near perfect and his knowledge of all things is incredible. He is a book lover and it is evident! He was always willing to accommodate our requests. To extend certain parts or shorten portions of the day that we were not really into. One person in our group wanted a Turkish coffee experience and he made it happen. Turkey was my favorite stop and I can't wait to return. When I do, I will be sure Kadir has 2 days free to tour us around.

  We had the pleasure of exploring with Kadir, and the experience was outstanding. His knowledge of history is truly impressive – not only does he share accurate and fascinating information, but he also connects it to the broader historical context, making each story vivid and memorable. Every place we visited came to life through his engaging storytelling, unique details, and interesting anecdotes you won’t find in books or online. Beyond his expertise, he was patient, dedicated, and always ready to answer our questions. His enthusiasm and passion for history are contagious, making the whole tour much more meaningful and enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to not just see the sights, but truly understand the history and significance behind them.
