    It was my second visit to Istanbul but the first time for my daughter and wife. Ali along with Darwesh Baba made our visit special. Just to see in the eyes of my daughter and wife taking in the history being told to them. The way the reaction on their faces was priceless to hear and see the places of the Sahaba’s burials sites what was meant for them to have been sent there before the times of the ottomans was breathtaking to hear. Thanks to our guide for an amazing eye-opening tour.

  2. Salma

    Amazing experience, we have been twice and one day will go again. I have been on this tour in May 2016 and again in August 2021. The local tour guide is a lovely person and his translation from Devresh Baba was very enlightening. The tour takes place in a comfortable vehicle and they are very accommodating of different people around the world. That is a great way to explore the less known gems around Istanbul city and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is traveling to Istanbul. If I am alive I will come and join you once again. Very highly recommended!

    With its history, culture, nature, it was my dream to spend my vacation in Istanbul. Instead of shopping tours, we booked a Shaba tour in the city which was amazing. Our hotel in Istanbul, Sura Hagia Sophia Delux was perfect with a supper view, our tour guide was Ugur, has a lot of information about the religions not only Islam but also Christianity, and Jewish. The guide gave us lots of information about Turkish culture and city life. Lastly, Mr. Tuna at the Toursce office was really kind and patient with our unending requests 🙂

  4. Abdalmalek

    We visited the sahaba graves & most important sights of Istanbul with this company. That was a very gratifying and spiritual experience. Local tour guide Hakki and his master dervish baba were very knowledgeable and gave us too much information. If you are going to visiting Istanbul then please do not give this a miss.

  5. Imran

    We visited the Islamic and natural beauty sites in Istanbul with my family with a very professional tour company. Istanbul is a mistic and beautiful city. Everything was excellent in our daily organizations. The touring to Islamic sites of Istanbul was great. Recommended.
