We had a lovely time with Mehmet, although it was cold and raining it didn’t matter because of the good vibes, laughs, conversation topics and of course tasty food. I would recommend trying this tour at the beginning of your Istanbul trip. Don’t hesitate to book this experience, it was our favorite thing in Istanbul!
I did the games (okey101 and backgammon) experience with İlkin and I can’t recommend it enough! We went to two different coffee houses and spent hours playing together. He was kind, patient, helpful, fun, a great conversationalist and super knowledgeable about the history and culture of Istanbul, happy to talk about various subjects and give insight into life here. He also gave a small presentation on the history of coffee and coffee houses in Turkey that was super interesting. Going in I felt kinda silly paying someone to teach me games, and afterwards I felt it was well worth every penny and even more, as I will carry these games with me for life and learned so much during our time together. Book today if you want to make your trip to Istanbul even more memorable :)
This was the best experience and it was my 3rd time doing it, the experience is very tailored to your own likes and niche interests or whichever places you choose to go prior to meeting with Hasan. He has a list of famous places that he takes you like Balat, Üsküdar/Kuzguncuk and Karakoy but it doesn’t feel like your every day tour since he goes out of his way to take you to unique places that you wouldn’t otherwise see on your own. The food tour is the best since you get to try different cuisines that you wouldn’t otherwise find on your own. For example I love matcha and I was able to find matcha in Istanbul thanks to Hasan. He also took me to a few famous places I saw on TikTok that I asked him about prior to meeting with me.
Mert was amazing. We had a phenomenal time with them - they made us feel like true natives in Istanbul. Instead of going to the most popular landmarks, we loved experiencing Istanbul through lesser known places. Mert thoroughly explained the history of the city while also making it feel like we were hanging out with a friend. Would highly recommend recommend booking with them!
Mert was really knowledgeable from everything about the culture, local life, history and architecture in city of Istanbul. It was great to have our fortune told and try so many Turkish deserts. Recommend to anyone who is keen to learn in a relaxed format and hang out with friendly tour guides.
My partner and I had the absolute best time with Mert and Mehmet! Going around the Balat neighborhood with two Balat natives gave us an experience we could have never had on our own. A mix of local neighborhood food joints and local culture and history - but the best part was that by the end of the tour it felt more like just hanging out with some friends. Also they took great pictures of us that we’ll always have to remember the day by. Would recommend to anyone!
