‘Istanbul, Turkey Trip- Old Town, Maiden Tower, Taksim, Kadikoy’, Mar 2025Gůlçin, thank you for your knowledge of Istanbul. Unfortunately your time management disappointed me. Telling me you’re not a foodie also made me feel quite awkward. Good luck!

‘Istanbul, Turkey Trip to Sultanahmet (Old Town), Taksim and Besiktas’, Jan 2024Incredible experience I had exploring Istanbul with Gulcin as my guide! Her warmth and enthusiasm for sharing the rich history and culture of this beautiful and complex city were infectious. Gulcin's deep knowledge of ancient scriptures and hieroglyphs added a fascinating layer to our journey, making each site we visited come alive with stories from the past. And let's not forget about Dilara, Gulcin's delightful friend who joined us for part of the journey! Her infectious laughter and easygoing nature added an extra layer of fun to our adventures. Thank you, Gulcin, for being an exceptional guide and for sharing your love for Istanbul with me. I'll cherish the memories of this trip forever, and I can't wait to return and explore even more with your expert guidance!"

‘Istanbul, Turkiye Trip - Sultanahmet (Old Town) - Taksim- Besiktas’, Jun 2023Gülçin was flexible in accommodating the start date of the trip to fit my needs. During the trip with her, I had the opportunity to visit all the major attractions in Istanbul. The Istanbul Palaces is an absolute must-visit. I also appreciated Gülçin's openness to suggestions for improving future trips. Additionally, I gained in-depth cultural insights into Turkey through the experience. 😊
