Erdem was an amazing tour guide! We were a family of four with kids ages 10 and 12, and he did a fantastic job showing us everything we wanted to see in Istanbul, plus a few wonderful extras along the way. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience enjoyable for the whole family. One of our favorite parts was that he took us to a local spot to eat, giving us a taste of authentic Istanbul beyond the typical tourist experience. He really listened to what we wanted and made the day feel personalized and special. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would absolutely recommend Erdem to anyone visiting Istanbul!

Great city tour with Tugba
We have had a fantastic two days city guide with Tugba, in Istanbul, and we were extremely pleased by her knowledge and passion in the way she tells you the history and the culture of her city. She is kind, on time, she can give you tons of good recommendations and she is generous in giving you the best time you can have. I would recommend her a million of times, thanks Tugba for taking us with you around Instanbul, we loved it!

The only way to see these amazing places
The only way to do this tour is with a private guide. Erdem, our guide, was clearly a passionate historian and knew SO much about the three sites. Fielded every question as well with terrific answers. Ask for him if you can!

Good memories
I had a wonderful time in Istanbul. The atmosphere was great, and the people were lovely, especially Tuba, my personal guide. She was so lovely, taking me everywhere and to every delicious restaurant. If I have the chance to come again, I will definitely use her services again. 💕💕💕

Tugba - Excellent and delightful guide to Istanbul
Tugba speaks fluent English and is a most knowledgeable guide, bypassing queues and procuring necessary tickets efficiently. Over two days she ensured that we enjoyed every site visited and derived maximum benefit from her experience. She took care of us on trams and ferries and in the bazaars, helping us to enjoy our stay in Istanbul. A most charming companion, we unreservedly recommend Tugba as a guide to the city from Byzantium through Constantinople to present day Istanbul.
