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
Abbiamo partecipato al tour con piacere. Haktan ha reso la visita molto divertente, oltre che stimolante e interessante. E' molto bravo e da come svolge il suo lavoro traspare passione per ciò che fa. Siamo molto contenti di aver avuto l'occasione di scoprire la città con lui, ha dato un tocco un più al nostro viaggio
Very recommended
Very informative, funny tour!
Haktan was very friendly and made an effort to make everybody feel comfortable. He combined historical facts with interesting anecdotes and diligently answered every question we had. Plus, he gave very helpful tips for visiting the main sights. Can really recommend this tour, especially in your first day in the city!
