Haktan - Tour Guide in İstanbul

Hi, my name is Haktan. I am a licenced tour guide, a teacher, an ethnographer, a storyteller and a game developer. I have even done some open mic stand up comedy. All of these experiences make my tours fun, engaging and informative.

I traveled to 30+ countries joining free walking tours whenever I had a chance and collecting the good practices of other guides. I studied in the USA on a Fulbright scholarship and taught at different universities so I know how to capture and hold people's attention when I tell the incredible stories of this amazing city.

If you read the reviews about my tours you'll see the word "funny" in almost every review. I don't want to brag about humour but let me tell you this much I once made a whole group of Polish people laugh 😎.

Last but not the least, The Guardian published an article about my tours.

I use audio headsets during my tours so you won't miss anything even when we are walking and talking.

Looking forward to meeting you!

I highly recommend Haktan as a guide. The walk with him was really informative, with lots of local advices and jokes, easygoing and enjoyable.
