By far one of the best private guided tours I have had around the globe. Extremely knowledgeable, not only with regards to the sights seen, but also as to the overall history behind the sights, city and country. Fascinating explanations and great at planning and pacing of the overall tour. I would (and will) definitely book this tour again for different sights the next time I am in Istanbul. ¡Muchas gracias por todo, Murat!

Murat is one of the touristic guides we’ve ever met. He has all the knowledge of Turkish history and culture. We have visited the main buildings of Istanbul (Sofi, Blue Mosque, Cistern and Topkapi) during 7 hours, and he was able to keep us interested. It’s also remarkable his skills in Spanish

We find Murat by random luck on tripadvisor. And a good, very good luck! If you are in a cultural treasure hunting this is your guide! He has great knowledge about history (trust me, I am a history fanatic) he know the secrets Jem's of every place and tells you the story behind everything! (He doesn't hold information) Murat is by far the best guide we had ever hired. Another great thing about him is that if you are a foodie he is also a gastronomic guide! He will show you the best Istanbul secret places!! And you won't regret it! If I could rate him 6 stars I'll do it! He is the one that goes the extra mile!

La experiencia con Murat ha sido muy buena, durante todo el día nos ha demostrado lo bien que conoce Estambul y su historía. Nos ha explicado con detalle cada una de las cosas que hemos visitado y además lo ha hecho con mucha paciencia, entrando en detalles interesantes. Muy recomendable para conocer Estambul de forma detallada en poco tiempo.
