Why choose this Istanbul tour ?
Tour guiding is my passion and I like my guests to feel like friends. I am a licensed Turkish tour-guide with over 25 years experience. Born and raised in Istanbul. As I have studied Christianity, archaeology, history, mythology, I can help you understand our diverse history and culture. My individual approach comes from a keen sense of reality (and humour) and aims to be friendly, informative, and entertaining. I wil be arranging fast track entry at the museums with special tickets Together we will talk about history, culture, religions, etc and try good, authentic food and even buy a Turkish rug if interested. The long and short of it; we‘ll have good time !
