    Memories of a lifetime

    We told you where we wanted to go on the day and had you guide us. I would like to go to where I would like to go, and I deleted one of my desired places and added the suggested places. The result was really good! I wanted to go because it was on the guidebook, so I wanted to go there, so I changed it and it was a great answer! Because it was private, I stopped by a store I wanted to stop on the way and was quite flexible and I could use my time effectively.

    It was very helpful

    Istanbul seems to be able to enter sightseeing spots preferentially with a guide, and it was very comfortable to be able to enter quickly without lining up even where it is quite lined up. At each spot, a wide range of explanations, such as stories about history and religions, made the trip dozens of times more enjoyable. What saved me in particular was that I wanted to see the walls of Theodosius and the Valens Aqueduct, etc. However, I was able to see it and was impressive.

    SO WORTH IT

    GIZEM WAS AMAZING! She had so much knowledge and handled all our random questions. Great value for money (it was just 4 of us, so totally worth the cost); great to be able to set our own schedule & pick the things we wanted to see and do! The default time to start was 9am, but we requested 10am and that worked fine. Wish we had known that guides get quick and free access -- so when they buy your ticket for you (eg Hagia Sophia), it's basically like skipping the line (note: bring cash for this)! We chose to do Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Grand Bazaar...we also got: an amazing local spot for lunch, help buying stuff at the Bazaar, a walk through of the Spice Market, and a drop off at a place with the best Turkish Coffee. Even more, she left us with reco's for the best Turkish Coffee, where & which company to use for a Bosphorus cruise, and a great lunch suggestion for another day! (We are kicking ourselves for seeing Topkapi Palace on our own day day before =)
