Extrodinary city & Celiks knowledge & presentation was fabulous. He explained even the smallest detail but kept the group moving appropriately to finish on time. He treated each of us personally & answered all questions. Çelik is a tremendous asset to his city of Istanbul & his love for it shows in his actions as a guide. Thx u.
