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!

Haktan

Haktan is very knowledgeable with a great sense of humour. We liked his other tour so much that we also joined this one. Highly recommend especially if you want like to know the history of Istanbul in an engaging way.

We had a fantastic experience with our tour guide! He was incredibly informative and kept us entertained with his humor throughout the tour. Despite the heavy rain, he went out of his way to ensure everyone was comfortable. Highly recommend!
