Salih was a GREAT guide! Answered all of our cultural questions and gave us a FANTASTIC tour of things we didn't see on our last trip
I was in Istanbul for a quick three-day visit and was lucky enough to meet someone at the airport who recommended that I go on some tours with Emir form Real Istanbul Tours. I literally contacted Emir at 10 pm asking if it's possible to do a tour the next day. Emir was quick to respond and provided me with all the options I had to see as much of Istanbul as possible during my short visit. The next morning he took me on a full-day tour of the classic sides such as the blue mosque area, Hagia Sophia, and the grand bazaar (entries and meals included). During this tour, Emir was super accommodating and gave me great tips on getting a good deal when shopping. He even helped me find a printing place to print some documents that I needed for my flight back. He was very kind, polite, and knowledgable. I was so impressed that I booked a 5 hr tour the following day just before heading to the airport to see the Taksim area and the Asian side of Istanbul. Thank you Emir for everything!
