Amazing!

I was only in Istanbul for a weekend and this is the best way to see and learn about all the major sites in the center of Istanbul. The tour was packed with history, sight seeing and good food for lunch. Be advised that it's a long day with a lot of walking, but ultimately worth it. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to do a lot in one day.

Amazing!

Our guide “Ozzy” was extremely informative, clear and knowledgeable. This tour was a great experience with time spent in Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and the grand bazaar, followed by lunch.

We then moved onto a hidden secret cistern followed by the final attraction - Topkapi Palace.

At every point, our guide had more and more information to give.

Would highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Thank you, Ozzy!

He stayed with us two hours longer then he was required to just to make sure we got every detail of our last stop on the tour. I highly recommend this tour because I learned so

Much and had the best time.

Amazing!

This was a great comprehensive tour of the major attractions in Istanbul, Turkey. Our guide, Tunç, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic and did a great job. He even helped me arrange a ride back to the hotel after the tour ended since my internet was not working in that area. Overall, recommend the tour!

Amazing!

We were met by Tunç, our tour guide, at the meeting point at the given time, and after introducing ourselves we began our walking tour. Tunç is very relaxed and soon made us feel very welcome and at ease. His knowledge and wealth of information is immense, but he did not bombard us with too many facts and figures. He is passionate on what he does, and very proud of his country. This tour is most comprehensive and a very good introduction to Istanbul. Tunç added to the experience. We would not hesitate recommending to any visitors to Istanbul.

This was our first full day in Istanbul, which we thoroughly enjoyed.
