      Learn and experience Turkish culture through taste by stepping off the main tourist trail and going on a dining tour at night with family, friends, and fellow travelers! You'll be accompanied by an English-speaking guide, who will tell you the importance of the delicacies that you will munch, what makes them unique, and how they are representative of Turkish culture. You will first enter a Simit bakery, where you will get to munch on the scrumptious delight known as the Simit bread roll that comes along with fresh grapes and seeds. You will get to chase down that wonderful bread roll with aromatic Turkish coffee and tea by visiting a Kiraathane. After that, you will learn how to charcoal grill kebabs in an Ocakbasi. To cap off this gastronomic adventure, you will go inside a Meyhane, a Turkish bar where you can get a taste of Turkish alcoholic beverages and dance to traditional Turkish music performed live by master musicians.

      The best ever! Please use their service!!!
      It was really great. Talha, the customer service texted me with info of the pickup and he double checked my address. He ensured I know my pick up time, let me know that the driver's ETA, and even texted me to make sure I'm home safely. The transfer service picked me up on time and I got there a bit early but the hamam server asked me to change straight away, which is awesome coz I don't have to wait. Their changing room is well equipped with lockers to put your things. I got into the sauna right after I changed and the best part is I'm alone and there's no other client, which was really great! The sauna room, steam room and bath area are in one big room so my privacy was ensured. My masseuse, Winnie was really great and she adhered to my needs as I have a bit small and tiny body, so she didn't put too much pressure but just nice. Everyone was great and friendly. I would really recommend this hamam! They even served me tea, juice and snacks. I took the Sultan package and I wish I chose the longer one.

      Great view and nice staff from the customer service always keep in touch by whatsapp, the tour is amazing and the cold weather can’t stop me to take photos from the deck, second floor has inside seats if you think the deck is too windy, nice experience

      Fun and saves a lot of time
      Skipping the very long lines is a real benefit. Our guide gave a interesting overview of the cistern and it's historical significance, as well as some interesting contemporary details -- like the people living above who fished through holes in their basements. The cistern itself is not big so I think the history makes this much more meaningful.

      Interesting and informative
      It was very interesting and informative. The guide Furkan is a professional and loves his job. I was the only one who came on the excursion, but the excursion was still carried out and there were two guides: Furkan and his friend George.

      Awesome tour
      Hassan is an exceptional guide who made our tour truly unforgettable. His deep knowledge, enthusiasm, and friendly personality created an engaging and enjoyable experience. He provided fascinating insights, answered all our questions with patience, and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the journey. His passion for the history and culture of the area was evident, adding so much value to our trip. I highly recommend Hassan to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and personable guide who goes above and beyond to make every moment special.

      Istanbul Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia Tour by Tourmania
      First of all, I really appreciate that the tour was not canceled although there was only me and one other participant. I enjoyed the tour. The guide with a difficult to remember Turkish name was very nice. He provided a lot of interesting historical information. During the visit to the buildings, he paid attention to details that I would not have noticed while visiting alone. There was also enough time to take photos without rushing. I can recommend this tour.

      Feel like a brand new person
      No better way to treat yourself after a long journey of travel than with the Sultan Deluxe package! You'll walk out feeling like a new person and re-energized! Staff was incredible from hotel transfer to hammam service and massage. I would highly recommend for any one staying in Istanbul!
