We were a small tour of 4 people plus our wonderful guide Fatiye. The tour took in the German fountain, Egyptian Column, the Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern and Hagia Sofia. Skipping the queues was definitely a plus but having such a knowledgeable guide was really the highlight. Fatiye was really entertaining and delivered all the things we wanted to know (and many other things we didn't know we even needed to know!) in a really easy to understand way. It was a great way to start exploring the city

Outstanding & Delightful Tour of Istanbul
What a Turkish Delight in so many ways. Our guide Fatih was delightful from the time he met us and his knowledge and passion for Istanbul was infectious. He took us to all the city highlights starting with the Blue Mosque. We really appreciated his history of the Turkish people and the Ottoman Empire. As well as his explanation of the different eras of architecture and ruins in Istanbul.
Our highlight was the Cisterna Bascilica as well as the secret beer stop and the best lamb kebabs ever!
Thank you Fatih for a wonderful day and making 8 Aussies fall
In love with Istanbul.

TURKISH TEA COMPANY
It was a great experience for anyone who wants to truly feel the spirit of Istanbul! Our guide was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. The attention to detail was truly impressive when describing the history of the city.
Turkish tea and coffee at the end of the tour took the experience to a different point. It was especially special with the Turkish Tea Company’s tea, flavor, and presentation. The traditional flavor is served with a modern and elegant touch, making a real difference.
Highly recommended for those who want a both cultural and sensory experience. It was a blast to be part of the story with a sip of tea while exploring Istanbul!

Highly recommend our guide Özge
We felt lucky to have Özge as a guide and we were the only ones who went on the guided tour that day. All the activities went very smoothly, we learned a lot new things. It was friendly and relaxed atmosphere and we very much appreciated Özge's commitment ❤️

So so tour. Wish we would’ve done it on our own.
Good tour but our tour guide was very long winded and irritable. Wish we would’ve done it on our own. We also ended up paying over $150 in tickets to each place. Too expensive.
事業者からの返答
Thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. However, we would kindly like to clarify a few points mentioned.
As noted in the tour details at the time of booking, this was a group tour, and hotel pick-up was not included (As you asked to meet at your hotel ) We also clearly state that entrance fees are not included in the tour price. Specifically, the entrance to Hagia Sophia is €25 and the Basilica Cistern is 1500 TL per person (approximately €57 in total per person). For two guests, this comes to roughly €114, not $150 as mentioned for each site.
We always encourage our guests to review the tour description carefully before booking to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for all. We hope this helps clarify any misunderstandings, and we truly appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve.
Best regards,

Excellent tour.
Highly recommend this tour. Our guide Muhammad was knowledgeable and engaging. He summarised complex history of Istanbul very well and was full of dad jokes! A couple of rest stops on the way as it was hot and we had refreshing lemon drink as part of the tour. Easy to find starting point.
