I wanted to plan a custom and private tour of Istanbul for 4 days and 3 nights. I was pretty specific on what I wanted to see and do and Tarik and his crew gave me all I wanted and more. He was professional and fun-- all activities and transportation went off without a hitch. And we did a lot-- turkish hammam, whirling dervish, Blue mosque, hagia sofia, food tasting, sunset boat ride, Topkapi palace and more. I would not hesitate to come back to Turkey and plan another adventure with them.

Wonderful walking tour of Old Istanbul.
We had an amazing tour with Emre Meric. He was attentive and informative, and took care of us really well. We were collected in a private van and Emre then walked us around all of the sights, giving us an extremely interesting talk along the way. He adjusted the pace well and timed breaks at the perfect times. The tour ran longer than planned but that was no problem for him. He was a very pleasant and professional guide and made the day very special for all of us. I can highly recommend him and this tour.
Metin was also great - responsive at all times and very helpful in booking the tour in the first place.

Outstanding Tour
Metin did a perfect job organizing the airport pick up, private tour and cruise ship drop off. Everything was on time and as we had hoped. Our guide, Songul was the best! She met us at our hotel and took her time showing us the historic sites and explaining the history. I cannot imagine the tour going any better. Highly recommend!

OUTSTANDING PRIVATE ISTANBUL TOUR
We had an excellent full-day tour of Istanbul with Kerim! He was punctual, extremely knowledgeable, and had a wonderful sense of humor that made our first time in this amazing city even more enjoyable! Kerim was kind, sympathetic, flexible, and open to any ideas or requests we had along the way.
We never felt rushed, yet still managed to see all the key sites in Istanbul from the Blue Mosque to the Hippodrome and much more…His friendly personality and attention to making the experience enjoyable truly stood out. If you are looking for a tour guide in Istanbul, I highly recommend Kerim for a memorable and stress-free experience!

Five Star Tour Of Istanbul
We booked a 3 day tour of Istanbul - each day focused in a different area.
We were met by our awesome guide Ertugrul at our hotel each day. He had such a lovely disposition, so calm and so informative. We truly learnt so much from him; not only about all the general facts about Istanbul but about culture , food and life too.
He took us to all the major sites and to some of the lesser known ones too - he dealt with all the tickets for transport / entry to places - we had literally nothing to worry about
We can’t thank Ertugrul enough for giving us a wonderful experience in Istanbul and for the company for all the work in the background - truly professional set up

PERFECT!
I had a perfect 3 day visit to Istanbul because of Metin. He was patient and attentive during the planning stage and was great to work with. Would not have been so rewarding without him and his staff I would not have seen or learned so much without the excellent guide Emre. He took care of all the pre order of tickets to avoid lines, ushered us through public transportation - professional and so informative. I could not have had a more perfect guide. With only myself and brother it was a perfect personal tour. Please be assured I will be using your your company when I possibly can and recommend you to everyone I can. John B

Fantastic guided day tour with private guide
My friend and I had a wonderful walking tour of old Istanbul and were guided by Ertugrul.
Erturgul met us at our hotel and walked us through all the sites providing interesting and factual information that we would never have learnt or found out if we were doing these visits by.one reeves . Ertugrul was so pleasant and friendly and made the day an absolute delight providing further recommendations of places to visit and eat at that we took advantage of over the next few days.
We would thoroughly recommend that you book yourself a tour withE rtugrul

Private walking tour of Istanbul with our guide Ertugrul Ucar from Istanbul Guided Private Tours.
We met our guide Ertugrul Ucar from Istanbul Guided Private Tours at our hotel in Karakoy. After a short tram ride, we exited at Sultanahmet and began a tour of the complex including the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, and Hagia Sophia.
Ertugrul was deeply knowledgeable and walked us deliberately through these key historical sites, explaining their roles during early Christianity, the Ottoman Empire, and modern times. He pointed out fine details and unique aspects of the art of different periods. The time we spent in Hagia Sophia was especially interesting as many of the works of art high on the walls and ceilings of this spectacular church-turned-mosque have been well preserved and require deep explanations to understand their origins.
Ertugrul is an excellent historian and art historian and his English is flawless. Would definitely highly recommend this company when setting up your tours as they are responsive and trustworthy - and Ertugrul as your guide. You will learn a lot and have a very enlightening experience.
