Our tour guide Dogus was absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable. I told her I wanted the famous San Sebastion cheesecake and while it wasn't on the schedule she made my wish come true. I loved learning about the Mosque 🕌 and how to identify them. The ride under the Bosphorus was intriguing 🤔 lol and I loved the ferry ride back. Her enthusiasm and passion about this country and its history is nothing short of phenomenal. If you can request Dogus for your tour you won't be disappointed.

We met with a nice lady Edina who is very knowledgeable & accomodating to us. She took us to places that no large groups can go to at times & restaurants like a good meatball place called Islama Koftecisi that’s been in business for generations. We rode the dolmus, tram, ferry when we were with her from the European side to the Asian side & back. I wouls take this tour again, if given the chance.

Tunc was our tour guide for Asian tour of Istanbul. We had a great time. He was very personable and friendly. He make our tour fun. We covered so many places in Üsküdar and Kadikoy. This tour is worth it. If you ever want to do an Asian tour of Istanbul I recommend Tunc.

No one showed up to pick me up. It was terrible. When I called the tour company they said Trip Advisor did not give them my reservation. I am still waiting for a refund. Go directly to a travel agent.

The walking tour opens up our outlook of Istanbul, delving into the often forgotten history and seeing its inhabitants life away from the often hectic touristic areas. Ekin , our tour guide was fantastic and shared her intricate knowledge of her hometown with us.
