5.00We had the best shopping adventure with Ochay, she was very attentive to our needs and we were able to get everything on our list as well as learning history as we journeyed through the bazaars . We highly recommend this tour!

5.00I didn’t realize when I booked this tour that it was a private tour, but I’m so glad that it was! Elyem is w wonderful guide, very knowledgeable and positive about the world, the country, and this community. She is charming and was able to draw a lot out of me, an essentially reserved person. Not only did we take in all the important sites in Istanbul, but Elyem also offered to help me make a few other stops, like mailing postcards. I throughly enjoyed my day with Elyem, and I highly recommend taking this tour with her.

Istanbul’s Shopping Tour of my Dreams!

5.00I cannot say enough good things about my tour and my guide, Eylem. I was intimidated to be traveling alone with a limited amount of time in Istanbul. And Eylem made my visit magical. The service, knowledge and care were impeccable. She met me at my hotel and instantly put me at ease, and proceeded to show me how to navigate the city. She gave me the ultimate shopping experience! We went to the grand bazaar and the spice market. Plus, I got behind the scenes looks at some of the most amazing rugs, lamps and ceramic vendors. And we even stopped for a coffee and pastries. I ended the tour with many treasures to take home and a new friend. Plus, she made sure I was dropped off safely for my next appointment. I will recommend Eylem to all my friends and clients and I hope to book with her myself when I return.
A great Istanbul layover shopping tour with a knowledgable guide

5.00Eylem was a fun, engaging, flexible and very knowledgable tour guide. We only had time for a 4 hour shopping tour before we had to leave for the airport. Without sacrificing any of the stops in our prescheduled tour, Eylem made sure we could finish on time. She was generous in sharing information along the way that extended beyond the shopping tour sharing her knowledge of the city’s history and culture ( she also is certified to give historical tours). We had a couple of specific items we wanted to buy and she directed us to the perfect businesses to buy these reputably. She was delightful to be with and we hope to tour with her again in the near future.
Experience the real taste of locals

5.00Actually, this is my second time in Istanbul after last year due to this once I specially have arranged more experience oriented tour with my lovely tour guide Eylem. She literally took me any place that I was wondering for like shopping tour, eating tour etc. Totally worth to that! Thanks a lot and my favorite turkish delight is double roasted from Grand Bazaar:)
Great walk around Istanbul

5.00It was a fun walk I was not super interested in shopping per se so we adjusted the itinerary on the go and added a few extra details and still went thru the grand Bazaar and Spice Market. Just a splendid time. I highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Istanbul.
