Hi! My name is Şahika. A native Istanbul-er (I hate İstanbulite) I spent several years living in other diverse and fast-paced cities including Houston, Boston and London. I think I can give you a unique perspective of Istanbul comparing it to other metropolis and ultimately showcase how it is like no other city in the world.
I am an avid traveler myself and I deeply treasure the spontaneous connections created on the road; purely out of shared curiosity and an unspoken agreement to share a moment together. I will be striving to create this convivial atmosphere on my own tours.
I had such a great time on this tour and would recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the city beyond the usual tourist spots. Our guide Sahika was knowledgeable and engaging, sharing stories and insights you wouldn’t find in a guidebook, and the route took us through vibrant neighbourhoods full of character and hidden gems. The whole experience felt more like exploring the city with a local friend than being on a tour. A fantastic way to see a different, cooler side of Istanbul.
I gained a new admiration of Istanbul and its people, one of the best tours I've ever been on thanks to our guide
