Visite guidée privée du bazar à Istanbul
Description
Istanbul est une ville idéale pour les amateurs de shopping. Vous pouvez trouver de tout, des bazars et marchés traditionnels aux centres commerciaux modernes et aux boutiques de créateurs. Explorons le véritable art et l'artisanat loin des pièges à touristes et renforçons les relations à Istanbul. Cette visite présente l'art et l'artisanat turcs plutôt que le shopping. Nous payons une sorte de pourboire aux commerçants pour bien nous renseigner et nous héberger dans les boutiques. Par conséquent, mes invités n'ont pas à se sentir obligés d'acheter des choses dans la boutique. Dans les prochains jours, lorsque vous viendrez seul, ce magnifique Grand Bazar ne sera pas écrasant pour eux. Le but de cette visite guide mes invités comme un local et leur permet de se sentir en sécurité pour faire du shopping à Istanbul. Nous connaissons personnellement des dizaines de magasins et de commerçants d'Istanbul, qui sont heureux de nous offrir des prix raisonnables et d'un bon rapport qualité-prix. Vous ne payez que les frais de la visite privée, nous allons donc travailler en votre nom, et non pour une commission sur les ventes.

Itinéraire
Nous commençons à visiter l'art avec des carreaux de quartz. Nous voyons des céramiques dans le monde entier comme le Maroc, le Mexique, l'Egypte, l'Iran. Toutes ces céramiques étaient faites d'argile. Mais les tuiles turques que vous voyez dans le palais de Topkapı, la mosquée bleue et d'autres bâtiments ottomans sont des tuiles de quartz. Au lieu d'argile, ces tuiles étaient faites de quartz. Cela les rend spéciaux et les plus durables. Nous obtenons suffisamment d'informations pour les tuiles.
Le Grand Bazar est l'un des marchés couverts les plus anciens et les plus grands du monde, avec 67 rues et plus de 4 000 magasins vendant des tapis tissés à la main, des bijoux, des céramiques, des carreaux de quartz, des épices, des souvenirs, etc. Nous nous arrêtons dans des magasins d'artisans spécifiques pour avoir de bonnes informations sur les tapis turcs, les meilleurs bijoux, les vestes en cuir et les articles en cuir, la calligraphie, les carreaux. Tout d'abord, nous marchons dans des ruelles où seuls les locaux vont. Promenez-vous dans les rues pour comprendre le style de magasinage et voir les magasins qui s'y trouvent.
Nous commençons par les bijoux turcs à notre tour d'art dans le grand bazar et visitons de petits ateliers de bijoux. Depuis le 15ème siècle, l'art le plus raffiné de la joaillerie a été fabriqué et vendu dans ces petits ateliers. Même l'un des créateurs de bijoux du Grand Bazar a été récompensé comme le meilleur créateur de bijoux du monde.
Nous visitons la partie la plus ancienne du Grand Bazar pour visiter un ancien magasin de tapis qui vend des tapis turcs originaux. Cette famille dirige cette entreprise depuis le 18ème siècle. Nous pouvons y obtenir de bonnes informations sur les tapis turcs et probablement pas le temps de faire du shopping. Notre invité peut revenir en toute sécurité pour faire ses courses par lui-même.
Nous comprenons les affaires du cuir dans le Grand Bazar. nous visitons des magasins de vestes en cuir et des magasins de sacs en cuir de différentes qualités. Le tannage du cuir est le plus ancien métier des Turcs d'Asie centrale. Il vaut donc la peine de les voir comme une entreprise d'art.
Nous prenons une pause déjeuner dans un restaurant local à Kadıköy pour déguster une délicieuse cuisine locale ici.
Marché aux épices égyptien, également connu sous le nom de bazar égyptien, c'est le paradis des amateurs d'épices. Vous pouvez trouver des centaines de variétés d'épices, d'herbes, de noix, de fruits secs, de thés et de sucreries. Vous pouvez également acheter des délices turcs, du baklava, du fromage, du miel et d'autres spécialités locales
Le marché de Kadıkoy est un grand bazar coloré qui vend une variété de produits, tels que des fruits frais, des légumes, des épices, des noix, du fromage, du poisson, de la viande, des fleurs, etc. Vous pouvez également trouver des vêtements, des accessoires, des livres, des antiquités et des souvenirs. Il s'agit d'un immense marché en plein air qui s'étend du Kadıkoy Carsisi aux rues voisines et propose encore plus de produits.
Nous prenons le ferry public pour aller à Kadıkoy qui se trouve du côté asiatique d'Istanbul.

We had a fantastic day in Istanbul with Zerrin. She is very knowledgeable and professional. Would highly recommend her for your private tour of Istanbul.
Thank you very much for nice review regarding my guidance. Grand Bazaar tour is very important and precious tour to keep our guests from scams, tricks away. And introducing culture in a best and true style. Thank you again...
This was an exceptional experience and perfect way to experience the Bazaar. Zerrin was a fantastic tour guide who caters the tour to your liking. She is very knowledgeable about the Bazaar and town as a whole and takes you to some very unique places. Highly recommended for anyone wishing to visit the Bazaar in Istanbul.
Dear Mel and Eric; thank you very much for nice review regarding my guidance. I could have a chance to introduce Turkish art and hand craft in non commercial side. Unfortunately, Our culture is getting lost and cheap in mass tourism. I am so glad you loved the tour. Best Regards
What a tour. If love art and history, you’ve found the perfect tour! Zerrin is very professional, genuine and knowledgeable about Turkish history. It’s nice to go to bazaar, not just to shop but to appreciate the history behind it. She took us to many local artists’ shops, antique shops… We had such a wonderful time. I’d recommend her to all of my friends.
Our family booked two-day private Istanbul tour with Zerrin, and has just finished the first half of it. Zerrin is a very ethical and reliable professional guide and highly recommend ! Although Trip Advisor listed her Grand Bazaar Tour and Highlights of Istanbul Tour separately, she is totally flexible and tailor-made our tour to best fit our needs. She even made a special arrangement to make our two-day tour into two-and-half day tour when she found out one of my daughters became physically too tired to continue the first day tour. How kind and considerate ! So, on the first day, we only went to Ayasofya and Grand Bazaar. Just as expected, Ayasofya was very crowded, however, as Zerrin pre-purchased the admission tickets for us, we were able to skip the long que, smoothly enter the World Heritage and admire it's beauty. As to Grand Bazaar Tour, with Zerrin, it is not an ordinary souvenir shopping tour. Since she is a historian with indepth knowledge, she not only took us to reliable shops for shopping, but also introduced Grand Bazaar from cultural and artistic aspects, making our visit meaningful and memorable. Fending off vulture-llike vendors, she navigated us to precious antique shops and one-in-the-world craft shops, making us notice the hidden value and beauty of the historical market. Thank you, Zerrin ! We can't wait for the second round of the tour with you :)
We had a wonderful visit to the Istanbul Grand Bazaar with Zerrin! She made sure we could see the best of it, taking us to the different shops there are, always making sure that we feel comfortable and one thing we loved about her is that she took us to many shops without the pressure or mandate to buy stuff or anything, she was mainly focused on showing us to trust Turkish shops and to explore the diversity in such great Bazaar! Lots of shops in there, you can find basically anything you can imagine. So worth visiting with her, she knows the best places in there!
We were in Istambul in 2016 with touring with Zerrin. She took us to the Grand Bazaar October 2023 and it was as great as it was back then. Zerrin knows all the little nooks and the old world sites within the Grand Bazaar. It’s so unfortunate when money buys the front isles and the shops at the entrances. We were fortunate that Zerrin knows this area so completely. She took us to see Sisko Osman Carpets. This is the kind of place you would like to see in the Grand Bazaar. Out-of-the-way, up and around the corner, behind this and over that. This family has run the carpet company for many, many years and are very ethical. We bought beautiful rug. That’s what I like about Zerrin. She knows who to shop with and why it matters. The reason we went to the carpet shop is because we asked to go back where we had been in 2016. She also took us to shops selling items we were interested in checking out. Since we had been in the Grand Bazaar with her previously, it was great to have Zerrin again. She took his place we had never been before, and returned to shops she recommended the first time we visited. Thank you Zerrin for helping us get around the Grand Bazaar when we had so little time in Istambul.
At the beginning,I wasn’t sure to hire a tour guide to visit Grand Bazaar. It was my second tour with Zerrin. When l asked her where to go in Grand Bazaar, she asked me to do first visit to Grand Bazaar with a tour guide. Tour Guide Zerrin is the best to understand Grand Bazaar. All hidden artisan stores in back streets are worth visiting and it was impossible tonfind non touristic cultural stores without Zerrin. It was fabulous day Zerrin. Thank you.
Excellent fun visit in Grand bazaar with Zerrin! Zerrin took us to many cool stores and we met many wonderful people at the stores. She was a long time, good friend of the shop owners and they treated each other respectfully and kindly, which was so nice to see! We visited places for lamps, tile arts, rugs, etc. etc. She also took us to the spice bazaar which we spent lots of time. Great tea and Turkish delights! We had really fun time!
Grand Bazaar is very important place to visit. It was the place where some beautiful pieces of Topkapı Palace treasury had been made. It is tought as a touristic place which is true. But Tam so glad I could have a chance to show back streets of Grand Bazaar. Thank you very much for nice review. Best Regards...
After booking the 2 days private tour with Zerrin, She suggested to visit Bazaars with a guide before shopping there. We were planning to do it by our selves.But It was really good idea to step in to Grand Bazaar with someone who knows the streets well. We were thinking just to walk around in the streets. There are too many similar stores next to eachother and everyone invites you to their own store. After 15 minutes, we would be thinking just to go out. In next day we started day with Zerrin. She navigated us in shopping style and showed all real artist’s galleries in back streets of Grand Bazaar. We didn’t understand how the time running fast. Here, you can find unique Turkish products and souvenirs like spices, ceramic plates, ornamental lamps, rugs, and many other items. Zerryn is very knowladgable about history of tiles, rugs. Jewellry. We visited small jewellry workshops met with man who has been designing jewelry for59 years. We visited a rug store and had got really good information about the details of rugs. Thank you Zerrin. We were thinking, Grand Bazaar was only place where you can find touristic goods and bargaining place. We were totally wrong. Understood that Grand Bazaar is the hearth of art and craft. We recommend Tour Guide Zerrin. She is very knowledgeable about the history, culture, and food of Istanbul and can tailor the tour to your interests and needs.
Thank you for nice review. It was my pleasure guiding you in Grand Bazaar. Best Regards
We had a wonderful time with Zerrin. Would have been completely lost without her there. We couldn't have done it without her there. The place we ate was yummy and true Turkish food. We visited a rug store and we were treated there with a tea and had a very nice conversation with the owner. They have been doing rugs for generations. It's a family business and they carry it with a lot of pride. She showed us all of the best locations to find non-touristy goods and we even got to witness how they fashion together the jewelry for one of the stores.
Dear Olena, Thank you very much for nice review regarding my guidance service. The historical art in Grand Bazaar is as much as imporant other highlights in Istanbul. Unfortunately it looks very touristic but it is very important to introduce the art and handcraft in right way to visitors. Thank you for booking this trip with me. Best Regards...
