Why should I book a tour with you?
Our tours are private, offering a personalized experience. Booking with us can save you valuable time spent on planning and logistics. You’ll also benefit from a tour guide who understands your needs, ensuring a tailored and enriching experience.
Are your tours with a vehicle or walking?
- In Istanbul, all of our tours are walking or use public transportation due to traffic issues. However, we can arrange a private vehicle with a driver upon request.
- Outside of Istanbul, all of our tours are conducted with a private vehicle and driver for your convenience.
Do I need to book in advance?
You can book our tours at least 3 days before the tour date. However, during busy seasons, our tours might sell out quickly, so we recommend booking well in advance to secure your preferred date.
Do you offer transfer from/to the airport?
Yes, we offer private airport trasfers from/to the airport. Details can be found here.
Can we skip the ticket line at the museums?
Yes, we purchase the tickets in advance, so you will not need to queue up for ticket purchases. However, please note that there may still be queues at the entrance, which are unavoidable and cannot be skipped.
Do I have to pay the full amount?
No, you can pay a deposit online, and the remaining balance can be paid in cash on the tour. If you prefer to pay the balance with your credit card instead of cash, please note there will be a 20% VAT charge.
Where does the tour start?
If your hotel is centrally located (Sultanahmet, Sirkeci, Beyazıt, Eminönü, Taksim, Galata, or Karaköy neighborhoods), our tour guide will meet you at your hotel. If your hotel is farther away, we will provide you with a meeting location and expect you to arrive there. You can simply send us your hotel's name, and we will confirm the meeting details.
What should we wear on the tours?
- You should wear comfortable shoes, as there will be walking involved. In the summertime, we recommend wearing a hat or bringing an umbrella because the weather can be hot, and don’t forget to take sunscreen with you. During the winter months, expect cold and possibly raining conditions, so wear warm clothing to stay comfortable.
- When visiting mosques, modest clothing is required. Women should bring a scarf to cover their hair, and men should ensure their shorts are knee-length or longer. If you don’t have appropriate attire, covers are offered at the entrance gate of the mosques.
