Private Guiding Service In Istanbul

Salim was an excellent guide for our group of 6 adults (family of 4 including my 96 year old mom and 2 friends), we highly recommend him and his Istanbul tour. We saw all of the top sites on our list-Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia, Hippodrome, Blue Mosque, the Cistern, Grand Bazaar, and he directed us to a fabulous restaurant with delicious, affordable traditional food. He gave just the right amount of history for the sites so we will be able to remember it, he was very flexible to accommodate what we wanted to see, and assisted us in making purchases in euros rather than liras so we didn’t have to exchange money. This is a must do tour and guide!

Terrific two days in Istanbul with Abdul. Met us at our hotel, which he did did not have to do, as it was quite a ways out of his way. Such an enjoyable, entertaining, educational walk through all of the major sites - and some of the ones just off the beaten path. Took us to some of his favorite coffee, pastry and food spots and through some of the shopping areas. He was pleasantly surprised at the "homework" we had done, asking about going places people usually do not ask about. Just a great experience all around.

We visited Istanbul with a fantastic guide, full of attention and desire to make us discover its city. Excellent Italian spoken. Highly recommended

Salim is a professional guide who provides excellent service. A great experience that I recommend to anyone who wants to discover Istanbul / Cappadocia.

Touring Istanbul with Salim was certainly an excellent and pleasant experience, not only we visited Mosques, the Cistern, etc. but we walked its streets, tasted its typical dishes in restaurants for non-tourists, advised us where to shop and where not, told us a little history, we talked about religion .. in short were two intense days of great walks and beautiful moments!! Thank you Salim!!

Service of Excellence by Mr. Salim. Extremely polite, attentive, patient and loving what he does. We stayed with him all day, learned a lot about the culture of Istanbul. I highly recommend the guide Mr. Salim.

Salim is a very empathetic and flexible person. He gave us private tour that made a difference on our trip. We learned a lot and gave us excellent recommendations.

A very serious agency!!! Reachable and available during the organization of the stay. The guide who accompanied us during the two days was perfect and especially very exciting! We recommend this agency!!

Greetings: A thank you rating for sending us to the best guide. On time, admirable knowledge of the city and its components, gentleman, respectful and very fun. People like Timy are what we hope to find in every country we travel. It was an excellent experience!

We hire Airport Shuttle Service + one day guided tour. All flawless. Salim showed us the most important without looking at the time and always with detailed explanations. Highly recommended.

I found him online, Salim contacted me immediately, I asked him what we wanted to do, and not a problem, what we wanted. All perfect. Umut com great guide, we saved all the queues that were everywhere. We are accompanied to places to eat, etc. etc. We hired him for two days, and we found him very, very well and highly recommended

We asked you for a private tour of stanbul,capadoccia,antalya and pamukale, and it was like clockwork, it fulfilled everything, honesty and trustworthy, my friends and we were admired by the good attention and professionalism of the Salim agency and all its team that served us in the different contracted cities, we can only thank and recommend this excellent person, serious and honest, who in these times are difficult to find

The city visit with the best guide we could have Mr. Timusin. Very good explanations and great professionalism, a great guide with a perfect Spanish "Los Picos Travel" attended by Salim with excellent professionalism. Exceeded my expectations, I highly recommend your private tours.

We are here to thank our guide Salim, for his loans and his agency during our stay in Istanbul. Visiting Istanbul was magical, but it would not be so pleasant without the competence, professionalism, safety, kindness and care of a Portuguese-speaking guide. We want to thank all the happy moments you have provided us, we will recommend your agency to all people who cross our path. We want to go back! Accept our gratitude. Thank you very much.

From the first moment, we have been completely correct. Salim is a fabulous, resourceful guide looking for what you need most at a very affordable and reasonable price. We have enjoyed Cappadocia completely (flights, transfers, private guide, tickets...) and 3 days in Istanbul, one of them with private car and we had a wonderful time. One of our best trips. Thank you for every friend:)

We have rarely met a professional like Salim Basar. Fully involved in us enjoying three days in Istanbul. perfect knowledge of the city and the Spanish language. Excellent in both personal and professional treatment. We were able to visit all the emblematic places without rushes or queues. A real hit.
