Amazing 10 days Turkiye tour with the best guide - I can't really express my feelings for Turkiye. Such an amazing country... We travelled for about 10days with Rose and visited multiple touristic site,museums, archeological areas and coasts of Turkey. Her guidance was really helpful and pleasant. Historic mythological stories made our days. We already miss Turkey.... Thank you Rose for everything

Thank you Elif for 2 great days - I chose the two-day private tour in Istanbul because I wanted to have better control of my time and make the most of my time in the city. I was very satisfied with my option. It's a tour for those who like to enjoy the city and its main attractions at their own pace. My guide was Elif, who helped me a lot to get to know Istanbul better. She knew how to balance the time between the two days very well, as well as having great historical knowledge and being very friendly.

Highly Recommended. - Elif showed me around the city, she knew every detail, every corner, almost all the people. It was very individual and she responded to all of my needs. I will recommend her to my friends and whoever comes to the city, because there can't be a better tour than through her.
