An amazing Istanbul tour with our guide Hasan

Published on Jul, 2024

We had a compact 3 hr tour in the old town district of Istanbul. Despite being originally from the city, I have never been to some of the amazing places we have seen. Hasan has made our day, not only telling us the most amazing history but also navigating us thought long waiting lines, that would have otherwise be difficult to handle in a hot and humid July day.

Hasan, Master of The Old Town

Published on Apr, 2024

Hasan has excellent knowledge of historical facts and a great personality to turn the visit into a fun experience. He provided advance guidance to avoid delays waiting in the line at the entrance of popular attractions. We enjoyed a fantastic lunch, at a discounted price, thanks to his personal relationships with the restaurant management. Easy going personality, excellent knowledge with fun facts kept the children alert throughout a long day. Highly recommended!

Week long walking tour. All the stops!

Published on Dec, 2023

We booked Hasan for the whole week! After the first time we visited Istanbul we became friends with Hasan. He made our dreams come true by becoming our defacto wedding planner. He then played host to us and forty wedding guests in June. Day after day he corralled our group and shared his wealth of knowledge for the most beautiful city in the world.
