During our few days in Istanbul, we did the free walking tour with Yunus and the Food tour with Burack. Both tours were excellent. Yunus gave a really interesting insight into the rich Istanbul history and provided lots of useful recommendations for places to eat good local food. Burack provided a really fun tour with a smaller, more intimate group, exploring different local foods in both Karakoy on the European side and Kadikoy on the Asian side. As we were continuing our trip to Cappadocia, Yunus also helpfully arranged our Green Tour for us with a tour group there. Really recommend this company.

Where do we begin! We landed in Istanbul and signed up to Emir's free walking tour - there were about 8 of us and we had a blast! perfect anecdotes, with real love for the city in each word - fun topics and history! all wrapped in 1 . At the end of the free walking tour we took tickets for the boat tour from them ( they are cheaper!) and even signed up to the food tour the next day- was fantabulous - a 5 hour long tour exploring the streetfood in the Asia and Europe side. We loved Emir's view so much that we requested him to arrange our trip to Cappadocia - our stay, flights, balloon rides, blue and green tour were arranged by Emir at very reasonable prices. What was even more awesome, he kept in touch with us along the way! The most unexpected part of our trip was a little trip to the police station as we got mugged near an ATM machine- Emir gave his own time to help us out in a station where no one spoke English! These guys aren't just guides - they are honest, genuine humans and will make you fall in love with Turkey when you view it through their eyes!

Emir is genuinely one of the most caring and passionate tour guides I've ever met. That alone makes a big difference. Add to that his in-depth knowledge of Istanbul, the care and attention he gives each and every member of the group and the personal touch he applies to each tour, there really are very few tours I've ever experienced that I've enjoyed as much. I would pay more for this tour, something the entire group raised with Emir. His response? He wants people to enjoy the tour and it's not about the money, he enjoys meeting new people and ensuring they have the best experience of the city. If that doesn't sell this tour, I have no idea what will. Dom x
