What a great way to get to know this iconic city by taking this tour. Goda was amazing and so knowledgeable about everything and it really made my trip. Taking a private tour was an intimate experience and that way I got to control the pace and stop longer at some stops that were extra interesting and grab something delicious to eat on the way 🫶

My boyfriend and I visited Istanbul in November. This was my second time in the city. However, for my boyfriend, it was his first time so we opted for a private guided tour of the main sights. It took some time waiting in line to get into Hagia Sofia, given its mosque status, but it was so worth it. The place has something magical about it. We also really enjoyed Topkapi Palace, especially the watch room. As for me, the underground cistern stole the show. Closed for renovation on my last visit, now it works as this incredible gallery with contemporary art pieces blending with its historical charm. A big thank you to our tour guide Ahmet, who was knowledgeable and easygoing. Would highly recommend this tour!

Taking that private tour in Istanbul in September with Elvan as our guide was like stepping into a fairytale. We cruised through the stunning Blue Mosque, got blown away by the Hagia Sophia, and felt like royalty at Topkapi Palace—all thanks to Elvan's know-how. She made history sound simple yet intriguing! Skipping the line at the Underground Basilica Cistern was a game-changer; it saved us so much time! We also really enjoyed a Turkish coffee break! Imagine sipping coffee, soaking in the vibe. Elvan made it more than a tour—it was like hanging out with a friend who knows all the great stories of the city. Istanbul, you stole our hearts!
