I've called this enchanting city home for the past four years, and during that time, I've had the privilege of guiding over 50 fellow travelers through its wonders. What sets me apart is my fluency in the local language, a skill that can make a world of difference in a place where communication can sometimes be a challenge for incoming travelers.

İstanbul

Day 1-2

One day 1, I will be waiting for you at the airport to welcome you. We will then proceed to our hotel and relax for a bit. Once everyone has settled down, we will have an ice breaking session to get to know everyone. After that we will head to out to explore the locality followed by a good dinner.

Galata Tower Museum

Day 2-3

On day 2, We will be starting our day with a traditional turkish breakfast at our hotel. We then head towards one of the most busiest cities in the whole of turkey - Taksim/istiklal street. Here we can find several cafes, restaurants and famous clothing brands all standing next to each other. The street is almost 2 kilometers long, so be prepared for a long walk. We will explore alot of street food, local artist performing in the streets and try out the famous turkish icecream. Then we head to the galata tower, which was a watchtower during the Ottoman period. Once we reach the top of the tower, we will have an absolute 360° view of istanbul. Dont forget to bring your cameras, it will be worth it. 📷❤️

Hagia Sophia

Day 3-4

Today, we take the local metro/tube towards one of the oldest structures of Istanbul - The Hagia Sophia mosque. We will also visit the blue mosque and The Topkapi Palace, which is right next to it. We have enough time to explore and take picture in front of these impressive monuments. Up next is the Bosphorus cruise, where we will be going through the Bosphorus straight which divides two continents (Asian and Europe). We will also be able to watch the sunset under the famous turkish bridge that connect east and west.

Büyükada

Day 4-5

The Island is calling, and today we are picking up that call. We will be heading towards the Princess Island by taking the ferry from Istanbul. Our ferry ride will be around 1 hour. Upon arrival, we will have the option to either walk or rent out a bicycle to roam around the island. I would recommend the bicycle, but the choice is yours. The Island promises insta-worthy streets and houses, filled with plants and trees. Once you reach the top of the Island, you will get the perfect view of Istanbul.

Kadıköy

Day 5-6

Kadikoy located on the asian side of istanbul is a laid-back residential neighborhood famous for its streets, colorful murals and hip cafés. We will be walking around the streets of kadikoy, enjoying the local culture, street murals, monuments etc. Tonight, will be the night of celebration. We will be heading to Uskudar, Halic or Ortakoy to watch the new year celebration. Which includes fireworks, street music and chaos. Be prepared as this night is going to be packed with people on the streets. The night is yours, you can do anything according to your needs, I will be there to assist you in every day to find cafés, bars and activities around the city. Feel free to ask!
