AMAZING DAY
I had a wonderful day in Istanbul. On the walking tour you can see the city for a different and nice way. Markets, streets, histories, mosques. The walking tour was very interesting and informative. All questions were answered at any time. Our guide - Emre - has a huge knowledge, good company, made you fell confortable during the tour and knew his city perfectly. He also told us about the religion, markets and origin, mosques and how and why they are inside, told us all the history behind the place and also showed incredible views. Emre is highly recommended. If you like to walk, this tour is perfect. Amazing.
