The tour itself was enjoyable. The guide was very knowledgeable and his English was good. However the organisation was poor. As requested, we arrived 15 minutes before the scheduled start time but the tour didn't actually begin until almost an hour later. As the first part of the tour consisted of a rather long section covering the history of Turkey, there was too much standing around. This could be a serious issue on a hot day, or for anyone who is not young & fit. Once we got going the mosque visits were excellent and it was great to miss the queues. The guide had genuine enthusiasm and really brought the history and architecture alive. So on balance a 5 star tour but with only 2 or 3 star organisation.

We joined a four-hour guided tour around the main highlights of Sultanahmet, and it was a wonderful experience. Despite the large crowds, the tour was concise, well-structured, and very informative — the perfect introduction to the area’s rich history. Special thanks to our guide, Buse, who was absolutely fantastic! She has such a dynamic personality, great energy, and an engaging way of explaining everything. Her enthusiasm and clarity made the whole experience so enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Istanbul for the first time!

La nostra guida era una ragazza molto brava, ci ha spiegato storia e dettagli interessanti delle tre tappe del tour. La combo moschea blu,santa sofia e basilica cisterna con i salta fila ti permette di ottimizzare i tempi e in 3 ore circa avere una buona infarinatura delle tre attrazioni. L unica cosa che si potrebbe migliorare è l acustica perché in alcuni momenti ascoltare la guida nell auricolare in luoghi affollati e con un gruppo di una ventina di persone diventa un po dispersivo e poco chiaro quindi a volte perdi pezzi di spiegazione.

Walk straight into the Blue Mosque with a licensed guide who reveals why its minarets caused a stir and how its architecture enhances prayers.

Gaze at the vast marble courtyard, elegant cascading domes, colossal columns nicknamed “elephant feet,” and inscriptions hand-drawn by Ottoman calligraphers.

A guide leads the way through the mosque and an Old City walking tour past the Hippodrome, ancient Obelisks, and Byzantine relics.

Enhance your journey with a Bosphorus cruise for unbeatable skyline views, take a Hagia Sophia tour to uncover its hidden frescoes, or explore the Basilica Cistern.

Fun fact: Various verses from the Quran and the words of the Prophet Muhammad adorn the high walls of the mosque.

First of all i would like to mention the guide that took us to Sultanahmet Mosque and Hagia Sophia. She was very well prepared with the information that provided us, spoke a very fluent english and was very helpful in all the matters related to the tour. I also appreciated a lot the fact that she gave us ear devices, like head-phones so that we could hear her very well amid the noise of the street. She told us many many things not only about the hystorical background of the places we visited but also information related to Istanbul culture, everyday life etc. Unfortunately i did not understand her name to mention it here. She was opened to jokes and free-talk, very social and open-minded. I liked her a lot, that is the way a toursit guide has to be in related to tourists. Second, the places we visited were absolutely fantastic. I liked Hagia Sophia and its enormous size, but what truly impressed me was the Blue Mosque and the fact that we had to take-off our shoes inside the Mosque gave a sense of equality between all people. It was splendid. Next time i come to Istanbul i want to deepen my visit in the city, since now i spent only a few hours and did not have much time to visit the city itself.

We really enjoyed our visit to the Blue Mosque! Our guide, Faik, was amazing — he shared so much interesting information about Sultan Ahmed’s reign, how he commissioned the construction of the mosque, and why it has six minarets. He also explained the architectural design, the different sections of the mosque, and some fascinating historical details. It was an insightful and memorable experience — definitely recommend!

Fantastic guiding by the one and only, Mrs Kiss. She was extremely knowledgeable and delivered all the information in a very understanding and interesting manner. I felt like I had plenty of time at the different sites and never felt rushed. Definitely book this guided tour and ask for Mrs Kiss!
