The guide was nice enough, and knew a lot, as much as I could tell. His microphone connection to our earpieces failed, so that was a major problem. He also needs to say "ladies and gentlemen " less often, it waslike a distracting nervous tic. He must have inserted it 50-70 times in the 3 site talks.

It's worth visiting the Blue Mosque with a guide. We learned a lot. The guide was very friendly, not tiring at all and very knowledgeable.

I loved everything about it. Our guide Hal and his knowledge was exceptional, I learned so much, I love history so was captivated and could have listened all day. He was very friendly also. Would highly recommend going on a tour with him. We saw lots of people without guides not learning the history we were

Our tour guide Buse was excellent - she was knowledgable and gave us insights into the history of the sights that you wouldn't get in a tourbook. The tour was well organised and we were given plenty of time to see the beautiful landmarks of Istanbul.

We had an awesome tour guide! He was very informativ, funny, charmingly aggressive. His English was great. He always made sure we had enough space to take a good picture and quickly asked other tourist to move if they were in our space. Pace was good. Amount of information was also good. I think it is a must to see Istanbul with a tour guide. This is a recommended company and tour guide. Thank you

The really nice guide But we still have to queue to get in The group is huge, not great For 100€ knowing that the Blue Mosque is free, I don't think it's worth it at all.

Great guide with plenty of information you can not find in a book or online. Skip the line tickets worked fantastic. Enough time for breaks and toilet.

Hussein was a fantastic guide - informative, relaxed, and hospitable. He took us through the 2 mosques and the cistern with practised ease - making for a comfortable and very enjoyable experience. The audio earpieces worked well and ensured our group could follow easily Hussein's excellent guidance. Hussein was also generous with answering extra questions and allowing group members to spend their own time at the sites and use the facilities. Overall, an excellent tour and well worth it.

Ticketing was all good. The tour was good. Busa did a good job of telling us the relevant historical points. It didn't include a tour of the old town which was advertised, just the blue mosque.
