Description

Join a local host to wander through the city, discovering the main tourist sites as well as the hidden local gems along the way, just as you would if it was a friend who was showing you around and knew exactly what you’d be interested in seeing. Follow the unique route which your local host has designed specifically to take in your chosen attractions, as well as including a few secret spots that you wouldn’t find in a guidebook. Your local host will also advise you of the best way to spend the following days of your trip, allowing you to discover other areas of Istanbul that you will love and give you recommendations for other spots in the city.  When you book this private tour, you’ll be contacted within 24-hours with some questions about your preferences and interests so you can be matched with a like-minded local host.  You'll be paired with guides that are passionate about the place they call home and who choose to spend their free time sharing it with like-minded travelers matched to them. Keeping in mind your personal preferences, your host will prepare a customized itinerary. If, during the tour, you feel like making some changes, or if your local believes there’s something in particular you might enjoy, this private itinerary will be flexible.
