Hi, my name is Haktan. I am a licenced tour guide who is in love with Istanbul!
I traveled to 30+ countries joining free walking tours whenever I had a chance and collecting the good practices of other guides. I studied in the USA and taught at different universities so I know how to keep people's attention when I tell the incredible stories of this amazing city.
If you read the reviews about my tours you'll see the word "funny" in almost every review. I don't want to brag about humour but let me tell you this much I once made a group of Polish people laugh 😎.
Last but not the least, The Guardian published an article about my tours.
I use audio headsets during my tours so you won't miss anything even when we are walking and talking.
Looking forward to meeting you!
Haktan
The tour was a great balanced combination of history, culture, and local life. Haktan provided walkie talkie so we do not miss out any content. I also like his presentation style very much! (Political satire fans would enjoy the tour very much)
Excellent and entertaining
I did the other tour with Haktan, and I thoroughly enjoyed both. Really great guy. He even answered my questions about the city when I texted him afterwards. Absolutely recommended
