This excursion was a great way to kick off our few days in Istanbul. It gave us a nice kick start to the Istanbul visit. Selami was a knowledgeable and terrific guide. He knew the best timing to arrive at each place in the city and we covered a lot of territories and avoided a lot of lines in a day with him. Our travel agent from the office then sent us off with recommendations and ideas for the rest of the day. We recommend your team, guys. Thank you.

Really great daily tour, our local tour guide was highly knowledgeable and very friendly. We even got a lovely bracelet from her which he got from a local street artisan, which was so sweet and thoughtful. He answered all of our important/unimportant questions and made the entrance into the sites visited very smooth. This day was a great introduction to Istanbul as we were only there for a limited amount of time. Highly recommend!

We have done this great Istanbul tour. The tour guide was very much knowledgeable about the history and details of Instanbul. He was very attentive to guest needs and was able to answer detailed questions about minor features we asked about. The lunch was excellent, definitely a cut above average. Highly recommend…

My assistant booked the last minted excursions in Turkey from the web online. I didn’t think my day tours would be this good. This tour company pays attention to its business and cares a lot about the quality of the tours. Especially my tours in Istanbul and Cappadocia day tour were great. They were very well organized, not crowded, and had guides who were knowledgeable about Turkey and history knowledgeable. They are very chatty and exciting people, there was never a dull moment with them as our guides. I wonder how my Ephesus and Pamukkale day tour will be tomorrow. I will recommend this company to all my friends around.

A must-do in Istanbul. Had this tour a year ago and had the chance to take it this year again with my girlfriend. An extraordinary experience with the best travel team in Turkey. Travel services and level of knowledge has increased even more this year. Everything was so detailed in the tour program and they really take care of you and your family’s needs in a day. Communication was good and English skills nice. You can contact them on whatsapp as well. Hope can visit other cities of Turkey on our next vacation. Thank you.
