“Yunus is my first tour guide in Istanbul, his enthusiasm for Turkish history and neighborhoods he grew up with made me appreciate Turkey, a whole new way. If I had more time, I would have enjoyed learning more about how Turkey became a melting pot of Europe, Asia, and Africa from Yunus for two more hours! This is without hesitation a memorable tour for me, from this part of the world.”

“This was a GREAT tour! We saw Istanbul from top to bottom and everything in between! We moved at a "good" pace, easy to cover the distance, learning as we went.”

“This was a fantastic experience, it’s a must do for the start of an Istanbul trip, it oriented me to the city and to the foods. Ali was an exceptional guide he taught us so much about the customs and local secrets as well as the foods and beverages we tried. Do not miss this experience!”

“Our guide was very knowledgeable and fun! He told great stories, asked us lots of questions and we learned a ton. He was patient and funny. I recommend this tour highly!!”

“Our guide was very personable and had a head full of knowledge from the local area. Loved the quirkiness of this particular district of Istanbul. Indeed personally bought back memories from having seen some old music memorabilia. Hit lucky, in that there were few of us on the afternoon the tour took place, so the pace for walking around was very comfortable in the heat. Lovely tour!”

“only clients that turned up, guide altered tour to meet our needs”
