Friendly tour guide who was very knowledgeable. This half day tour introduced us to Istanbul’s history, focusing on the Faith District. The tour guide was open to questions and gave us planned breaks while walking in the summer heat. Children or those who tire of historical detail might be bored at times but if you love the history, this is a perfect introduction to Istanbul!

Our guide never showed up and did not even respond to my chat message asking when he would arrive. . At least the money was refunded without any hassle.

The tourist guide had a lot of insight into the monuments we visited. Had fun exploring the city. There was a point in the tour with a random fashion show which was a bit weird but a funny story to tell. All in all, had fun!
