We had an amazing experience with Ismail on the free tour in Istanbul. From the very beginning, he was engaging, professional, and full of positive energy, which made the whole tour both entertaining and memorable. What we appreciated the most was how he made us feel truly immersed in the culture during those hours. It was much more than just visiting places, it felt like discovering the real essence of Istanbul through its history, traditions, and daily life. We are especially grateful for his patience and the way he explained aspects of the Muslim religion with such clarity, respect, and passion. It was one of the most interesting parts of the tour for us, and we learned a lot. Thank you, Ismail, for such a fun, insightful, and authentic experience. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Istanbul!🙂

Great way to see the monuments at night and getting some extra info along the way. Some info will be doubled up on the day walking tours which will naturally happen

Emrah was clear and concise throughout his tour. What I find really special about him is that he includes his own personal history and stories when conducting the tour.

One of the best I’ve been on Informative, enthusiastic and fun!

Emrah was very good. Informative, interesting and thorough. The night was very cold and he still kept our attention through 2 hours. Really enjoyed it.

Excelente guia. Sabe mucho. Muy interesante. 100 % recomendable

las demás personas cancelaron por la lluvia y tuve el tour sola para mi, muy profesional y muy amable, lo recomiendo 10/10

A great tour. Short route but very informative.

Un chico muy agradable y profesional! Divertido y con mucha información interesante. Gracias!

Amazing free walking tour! Our guide was very friendly, answered every question and gave us a great first insight into life in Istanbul. The perfect start to our trip. Would Highly recommend!

Şahika war eine fantastische Guide, die die FreeTour zu einem echten Highlight meines Istanbul-Aufenthalts gemacht hat. Obwohl ich zum Zeitpunkt der Tour bereits sechs Tage in der Stadt war, hat sie mir fast ausschließlich neue Ecken und Perspektiven gezeigt – fernab der üblichen touristischen Trampelpfade. Sie vermittelt Geschichten unglaublich lebendig, mit viel Humor und spürbarer Liebe zu ihrer Stadt, sodass man ihr stundenlang zuhören möchte. Besonders gut haben mir die kleinen Anekdoten und Mythen gefallen, mit denen sie historische Fakten verknüpft und so ein stimmiges Bild von Istanbul zwischen Vergangenheit und Gegenwart zeichnet. Gleichzeitig achtet sie darauf, die Gruppe mitzunehmen, Fragen zu beantworten und immer wieder praktische Tipps für weitere Erkundungen zu geben. Wer Istanbul nicht nur „abhaken“, sondern wirklich erleben will, ist bei Şahika genau richtig – ich würde ihre Tour jederzeit weiterempfehlen.

Shahika was very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humour. I really enjoyed her tour, and her style of delivery. It was definitely the highlight of my trip!

An unforgettable way to experience Istanbul. Seeing the Hippodrome, Blue Mosque, and Hagia Sophia at night was truly magical—quiet, glowing, and full of atmosphere. Emrah is an excellent guide with a real talent for storytelling; he brings history to life in a warm and engaging way. From the hidden world of the Basilica Cistern to the romantic story of Hürrem Sultan Hamam, every stop felt meaningful. The tour was relaxed, immersive, and beautifully paced. If you want to feel the soul of Istanbul and see the city from a different perspective, this night walk with Emrah is highly recommended.

Emrah was gracious enough to come into the city when I was the only person signed up for the tour. He took his dedication to being reliable and a good representative of Guru to an astounding level. What a knowledgeable and wonderful guide! Thanks SO much.

Incredibly knowledgeable and wow, such a good storyteller as well. She managed to turn centuries of complex events into an understandable and entertaining story. A great companion for understanding this beautiful city

Go on this delightfully enchanting tour. You’ll thank yourself later

Emrah was exceedingly professional, knowledgeable, kind, and attentive to our needs. He provided a fascinating history of Istanbul and its surrounding historical monuments. He even brought us into a cafe to warm up (it was 2 degrees) and served us tea and water. Truly memorable experience, one of the best GuruWalk guides available!

This tour took place in exceptionally cold and sometimes rain weather, yet Emrah checked in we were all ok, provided shelter whilst he could and half way through took us for a warm in a cafe with a complimentary cup of tea whilst he talked more about the area. The tour itself was very interesting and we learned a lot about the main area, Emrahs English is very good and he made sure he also answered lots of questions that the group had. Highly recommend Emrah and this tour as a could introduction to the Blue mosque and hippodrome area of Istanbul

Never imagined I'd get so much from a tour! Sahika was super friendly and informative. She made the route we went through come alive!!

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
