Free walking tours in Izmir

Recorrer el barrio del bazar con Can nos hizo fijarnos en detalles que nos habían pasado desapercibidos. Nos fue contando cosas interesantes a lo largo de todo el recorrido. Solo nos faltó algún dato histórico más.

Can is an exceptionally friendly guide and responded to our individual wishes and needs. With his interesting and knowledgeable stories he made the tour a really authentic and rewarding experience!

Excelente experiencia, un guía muy agradable con mucho conocimiento de la Ciudad, nos dio mucha información y buenos consejos para disfrutar de la ciudad. Muy recomendado!!

Very nice and comfortable

Ethan was a wealth of knowledge and entertained us immeasurably. I highly recommend his tour

Erkan is a really nice guy and I really liked the tour. He showed me places I wouldn’t have found without him and he was really authentic. Thanks again!

Erkan was a Great guy, he spent almost all day with us and was very kind and funny! Thank you!

Erkan is very knowledgeable & practical. Wants to meet your expectations but also works on expanding your local knowledge. Is interested in you & your background as works to better deliver items of more interest! Very polite - a delightful tour…

Wonderful guide! Wonderful tour! He spent the entire day with us…. From 12 noon til 730pm!!! Good explanations… fun day!!!!

It was such a delightful tour! He is very flexible and adaptive to your interests so plan to have your tour run longer than expected. Would recommend!

I have done dozens of walking tours in different parts of the world; this was one of the best. For five hours Erkan took us around Izmir, seeing things like the Ascensor, clock tower, bazaar, and Atatürk museum - but more importantly he is such a friendly, funny, and hospitable guide. He really enjoys guiding and getting to know the group; we stopped for lunch in a great spot for fish sandwiches and also stopped for coffee later on. Since admission to the Atatürk museum is free he took us through there as well, telling us about Atatürk. He even helped me find a specific souvenir I had been searching for for several days without success.

Erkan was a fun guide who showed us many interesting sights. He spent much time making sure we had rests and food. I would have liked a little bit more history, as the history of Izmir is very interesting. I enjoyed the visits to the Mosque, elevator, bazaar and clock tower. I would highly recommend Erkan as a guide.

Un tour super personalizado! Nos dio tips y datos de la ciudad. Muy amable

Very interesting. A local view of this fascinating city. Beatiful hidden places

Erkan was a lovely guide, very encaustic and kind. Showed us some wonderful sights of Izmir 😊

Erkan was fabulous. Knowledgeable and insightful, he took us on a wander through the bazaar, pointing out mosques, food, historical places. He taught us how to take the tram using our credit card and showed us two ends of Izmir which would have been too far to walk. I especially appreciate his curiosity about the cultures of myself and the other participant. It made for lively discussions.

Erkin was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable. Loud clear voice and speaks good English. He gave very good recommendation for food in kemeralti. We are well travelled n joined many walking tours in America and Europe and this is the BEST! Erkin is very sincere and enthusiastic about sharing his beloved Izmir. What we did not expect was when we said we wanted to go to the Agora, he paid fr his own entrance ticket to bring us in, at his own expense. Free walking tours will never bring u into paid attractions. We appreciated it. During this trip some members of the group asked how much we should tip the guides. According to my research 2023, Euro10-15 per person fr a 2 hour walking tour is a must. Erkin tour was more than 4 hours!!!! Thus for this tour with Erkin, we doubled the min amount.

The tour was amazing and much fun! We would definitely recommend the tour. The talks were great and the contributions exciting. See you next time!

The tour with Erkan has been fantastic, he showed us all the most interesting places in Izmir with a lot of passion and professionalism; Erkan is a super nice and friendly person, the tour with him has been an amazing experience and a lot of fun. I highly reccomend Erkan to anyone who wants to discover the beautiful city of Izmir :)

He is such a nice person! He showed us nice places around Izmir and the most important thing we have a very nice time. I really recommend Serkan!

I was planning a tour with a guide and ended the day with a friend. Erkan is not only a very knowledgeable and great guide, but more than that a very open minded, warm hearted and fun person to explore the city with. Can not recommend him enough.

Erkan was an amazing guide. After being dropped off by a taxi at an incorrect address that cost us 45 minutes of additional walking, Erkan changed our somber mood. His knowledge and passion is great. He went out of his way to look after our needs. Highly recommended

Erkan was very friendly and knowledgable. He showed us some lesser-known sites of Izmir, such as the view from the Asansör Elevator, and took us to the bazaar, where we tried some local specialities. Erkan will tailor the tour to your interests. Would definitely recommend!

Erkan is an excellent guide who is very personable, hospitable and professional and has spectacular knowledge of the Turkish culture and history. We didn’t know what to do when we arrived in Izmir and I was fortunate enough to connect with Erkan through Guru walk on the same day. Erkan took us on walking tour and gave us a really nice overview of the city. He was also very flexible and able to accommodate us when I asked for a late afternoon/evening tour. I strongly recommend Erkan to anyone who wants a personal and very knowledgeable guide to show them around Izmir city.

Erkan was a nice guide. He took his time to make a personal guide just for me. He told me the history of izmir and we had a great and open cultural discussion. Highly recommended
