Cultural Free Walking Tours in İstanbul

Halil was very prepared and professional; this tour was the perfect way to discover the Galata neighbourhood, in a way that would be impossible without guide. He provided us with super interesting historical background, essential to better understand the history of this fascinating and complex city.

Halil is a warm-hearted, friendly guy, always a a smile on his face, enjoys what he does with a very good English and huge knowledge for all kinds of questions. very good use of the day!

Erkek arkadasim yabanci oldugu icin boyle bir etkinlige katilmak istedik ve cok keyifliydi, tesekkur ederiz.

An engaging tour, ranging from historical insights to cultural practices and football mania. A varied itinerary of churches, tunnels, passages, cuisines, viewpoints provided a good introduction to the area. Halil also provided good tips re: eating and shopping.

The Tour was a good mix of interesting history, good sight, fun facts and good advice with just the right amount of resting stops for a walking tour. We enjoyed the tour very much, the Turkish coffee and the rooftop view both were a treat and the recommendation were super helpful.🥰

Excellent tour. Very knowledgeable guide and great to see interesting places I would not have otherwise visited.

Excellent tour for insight and understsnding islam and places at sultanahmet:-)

Hakan was a great tour guide! We ended up joining the 3h tour and we were very happy with everything. The explanations, the amount of info, his knowledge, his carisma, the highlights we visited and his recommendations. Thank you!

Halil is a fantastic guide with deep knowledge of the history and layout of the Taksim area. Without his explanations, I would not have understood the significance of the neighborhoods and structures we visited. I had a great time on this tour. It was informative, well organized, and enjoyable throughout. Highly recommended if you have time to include it in your schedule. Excellent job, Halil.

Our walking tour around Taksim and Galata Tower was very interesting and enjoyable. As a certified historian, Halil shared fascinating facts and insights. He was knowledgeable, very kind, and fully involved throughout the tour. Highly recommended!

Our guide Emre was very interesting and shared a lot of fascinating information about the city of Istanbul. The tour was motivating, enriching, and full of positive energy, without ever feeling overwhelming. He really engaged the group and made the experience lively and enjoyable. I highly recommend him!

Well worth doing- Halil is a great guide

We had a wonderful experience, important and meaningful for our understanding of religion and spirituality. Very inspiring, thank you, Fatih.

Fatih surprised me from the very first moment to the last and at every point in between. You will immediately realise that he is highly knowledgeable and truly devoted to guiding. Even though I have already spent 5 months in Turkey before the tour, I learned a lot from Fatih. Highly recommend!

This tour is fantastic ! We saw a lot of unusual, hidden places; tried Turkish coffee and tea and discovered interesting stories. Thank you !

Hakan was great. We really enjoy the tour!

Thanks for a great tour. Really informative and nice to see so some many different locations including churches and markets. We got to sample turkish tea and coffee, got some helpful tips regarding where to eat and drink also! I would recommend this tour.

A great tour providing information on architectural structures and sights that would've easily missed. An amazing job, by Halil, with his historian background showing us before photos. He provides enough important history to keep it very engaging. The cultural experience to coffee and tea is much appreciated as are the recommendations provided.

The tour was amazing and Halil is very experienced and knowledgeable tour guide. 5 stars! Really an amazing experience. Thank you!

Amazing tour! Very informative and also interactive with free coffee and tea

Super Tour und super Guide der vieles interessantes zu erzählen hat und zu Orten führt, die man alleine nie entdeckt hätte.

Very good guide. Very knowledgeable. Great warm stops especially as it was snowing.

Halil supó hacernos conocer Estambul tanto desde un lugar de persona local asi como también como gran profesional. Mas que recomendable.
