Hello! My name is Ensar. I'm a professional Tour Guide, licensed by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of Turkey. I live in Istanbul, and have always loved traveling and meeting new people. I lead a group of professional Tour Guides here in Turkey. We are all experienced guides who love their job and enjoy sharing culture and anecdotes with friends and travelers. We'll be happy to meet you and show you our city :)
See the best sites in Istanbul with a professional tour guide, this guided tour aims to meet people and highlight the most important places in the city.
The tour begins at the Hagia Sophia, a must-see and the most famous historical site in Istanbul. Then the Blue Mosque, the Historic Hippodrome and the Grand Bazaar.
The tour ends at the Grand Bazaar. Approximately 3 hours of tour will give guests good insight into how the city of Istanbul grew and became the capital of the world.
The places we will visit:
Also on the tour we will pass through these places and we will have an idea of their stories:
- The Turkish bath of Hurrem Sultan
- The German fountain
- The Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts
I will be guiding you for the best photo shot points during the tour.
- The tour does not exceed 13 guests. I do tours maximum of 13 people.
- The tour concludes at the Grand Bazaar, so we will be 10 minutes away from the Hagia Sophia. if you want to visit interior Hagia Sophia, you should do it before the tour.
-The sites we enter on the tour are free.
Please consider that this is my full time job. For me, the fair minimum tip amount is €10 (350 liras), it depends on satisfaction.
The meeting place is just under the tree at the entrance to the courtyard of Hagia Sophia (there is only one entrance to the courtyard!) You can recognize the guide with his purple flag.
Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
