Sonar was fantastic. He is highly qualified, with excellent English that he learnt while briefly living in America. Not only was his knowledge about the sites and history excellent, but he was very accommodating, and able to discuss a wide range of topics. He was willing to adapt our itinerary to suit our wishes and did not drag you off... More

We only had 2 days in Istanbul at the end of a cruise, so we hired Soner so that we could make the most of our time. He met us at our hotel on time and and for the next 7 hours we toured the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace and Hagia Sophia. Soner is a young, personable, English-speaking, trained tour... More

We only had a few hours open for a tour ahead of starting a cruise in Istanbul. Based on Tripadvisor comments, I had arranged the details with Soner ahead of our arrival via email, and he arrived exactly on time at our hotel. He provided an excellent tour of the highlights of the old city, and offered to drop us... More

Emine was very knowledgeable and extremely... More

My wife and I spent a long weekend in Istanbul last November and Soner put together a great day for us. He combines all you need in an excellent guide: Very knowledgeable about the city, its culture and history, excellent English and very service-minded. We would highly recommend Soner and we will be using his services on our next trip... More

Ebru was our tour guide and she was very friendly. We booked the Istanbul Classic Tour. It was a group tour that was supposed to consist of 8 people maximum. We were fortunate enough to have only four people total in our group, so it felt like a private tour. Ebru was very knowledgable of the sites we visited, which... More

This is not the cheapest Istanbul tour out there. However, if saving TIME and a having POSITIVE EXPERIENCE are important to you, then you can't go wrong with booking with Soner. If you're like me, you probably won't get the chance to visit Turkey again, so I figured I might as well go with the best even if it will... More

By following other tripadvisor.com users' suggestions, I booked the Daily Istanbul Tour on line. Soner Tufan is the BEST -- Pleasant and polite, instant response via email, and catering to our every single request. Our guide Mrs. Ebru is friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. We had a lot of fun together. Just wish my next visit to Turkey will be longer.... More
