Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque tours

Our hotel was near Taksim, and a guide met us at the pickup point, drove us to the Old City, where we met our tour guide and group, and then we started our walking tour. The guide spoke excellent English and was easy to understand. They explained Turkish history very well, organized chronologically. I had watched some videos about Turkish history beforehand, which made it much easier to follow along. The guide mentioned they had studied history, and they answered all our questions thoroughly. It was convenient that admission fees could be paid in Euros, Dollars, or Lira. Lunch was a delicious local meal. Shopping was included, but it wasn't pushy. We also had time for a cup of tea in between, and enjoyed free time at the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and Topkapi Palace, which was great.

I loved our tour especially our guide, Burak. He was informative and very helpful. He even helped me take photos and he waits whenever people get lost. it's super value for money because you get to see and experience the highlights and also get to skip most of the lone.

The tour was a walking tour since vehicles are not allowed around the areas we were going to visit. The pick-up was in a bus and then we were dropped off from where all the destinations were walking distance. The guide was very informative, learnt a lot about the history of Istanbul and all the monuments are absolutely beautiful.

definetly worth the money, the driver Mr.Senturk is very on time. and the tour guide (Mr.Sultan) if im not mistaken his name, he is very knowledgeable very detail in explain every thing and the most important is not rushing, also want to mention about the lunch which is very delicious. So i would like to recommend this trip to anyone who's planning to visit Istanbul👍🏻

Thoroughly enjoyed my Balat & Fener walk with Yunus. He made the whole experience so well paced and manageable especially that one hike up the hill. He was also so knowledgeable about the history and very relatable as well. Made for a fun and active day!! Thanks Yunus!!!

Baris was the best! Super informative, patient, and full of great energy — we managed to see so many beautiful spots in just a few hours. It felt like exploring the city with a friend who knows all its secrets!

We had Omer as our guide and he was great. He was engaging and knowledgeable, and also showed us the best spots for photos. We enjoyed the small group, and loved that he also pointed out some little-known tidbits at some of the locations we visited. Would recommend this tour!

Fun and informative tour! Sites are a must visit! Had lunch included, which was good too!
