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
Hakatan was a great guid, informative, relevant and good sense of humour. I really enjoyed the tour would definitely recommend it x
Haktan was really experienced, the audio was a great add on that make it easier to hear and understand. If you’re in Istambul this tour is a must!
The tour with Haktan was truly entertaining, enriching, and pleasant. He is very knowledgable, full of humor, and calm. We learned about some of the traditions in Turkey, especially the ones related to culture, religion, and politics. He also shared significant historical information and stories. I loved it and recommend it 100%!
