Thoughtful and knowledgeable guide

5.00My guide Batu is very thoughtful & accommodating, when my flight got delayed and my arrival time was unclear. He had planned the routes to avoid closure, and with stops at key points of interests to explain background & history. Plus answer to questions and great intellectual conversations about landmarks, history, current events..etc. For someone who doesn’t have much time in Istanbul and knowing little about Istanbul & Turkey, Batu is your guy!!
Great overview of Istanbul!

5.00We really had a good time with our guide Burak today. Not only he could help us immerse into the history of old town Istambul but he did it with a great sense of care and thoughfulness of our needs. A true charm armed with the knowledge to guide us in museus, cafes, markets, mosques or bookshops alike. Top.

5.00Burak was an excellent guide. My son and I visited Istanbul and on our first day he guided us through the city’s most iconic monuments with great professionalism and knowledge. He was very well prepared and shared many interesting insights about the history and culture of the city. What we appreciated the most was his flexibility. He was very willing to adapt the program to our interests and pace, which made the experience even more enjoyable and personal. Overall, it was an excellent experience and I would highly recommend it to any traveler who wants to discover Istanbul in a deeper and more authentic way.
This is the ULTIMATE GOLD STANDARD for your Turkey Experience, don’t be fooled by the others!

5.00We had the most incredible experience with Burak — he truly went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. From start to finish, everything was handled with complete professionalism. Communication beforehand was always timely and extremely clear, hotel pick-up and drop-off were seamless, and Burak set expectations throughout the day so we always knew what to expect. His local knowledge is exceptional, and his English is impeccable. He guided us through Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Basilica Cistern, the Hippodrome of Constantinople, and the Grand Bazaar, bringing each location to life with fascinating insights and stories. He also recommended a fantastic local restaurant where we enjoyed an authentic Turkish lunch — something we would never have found on our own. Burak was kind, patient, and generous with his time, ensuring we never felt rushed and could fully enjoy every moment. We couldn’t recommend him more highly — if you’re looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely thoughtful guide, he is absolutely the best choice!
Absolutely recommended
