I had a wonderful experience choosing “ Old City Tour of Istanbul “ true the company called “ TURKEY TOURS COMPANY TRAVEL “ . They organised and communicated to a very high and professional standard! They picked me up and dropped be back to the hotel after the tour . I want to mention about our guide tour “YUNUS” he was very friendly and knowledgeable,he took great care of us and interacted all the time with questions and answers! Not to be forgotten the absolutely delicious lunch at the fish restaurant closed by called “SEAFRONT LOUNGE” the grilled fish was to die for , super delicious 😋.

We found Salvda to be a fantastic guide. She was very professional, so knowledgeable, and very interesting. Her English was very clear and she was very helpful in assisting us with further tours. We would certainly recommend her.

We had a wonderful private tour with Sevda. The tour was very relaxed and informative. Sevda shared many details and facts that help explain the history of Istanbul (Constantinople). I typically tour areas without a guide, but Sevda was a great "value add". Highly recommend taking a guided tour of Istanbul just due to the amount of history. Having Sevda provide the details and timelines of events helps form a picture of Istanbul's rich history. After the tour we had a wonderful late lunch where we had a chance to talk more about the culture and history of Istanbul and Turkey. Thanks for a great day Sevda!
