Hi! My name is Şahika. A native Istanbul-er (I hate İstanbulite) I spent several years living in other diverse and fast-paced cities including Houston, Boston and London. I think I can give you a unique perspective of Istanbul comparing it to other metropolis and ultimately showcase how it is like no other city in the world.
I am an avid traveler myself and I deeply treasure the spontaneous connections created on the road; purely out of shared curiosity and an unspoken agreement to share a moment together. I will be striving to create this convivial atmosphere on my own tours.
Sakira war äußerst kompetent, freundlich und hat uns mit viel Wissen und Engagement durch die Tour geführt. Zudem war sie pünktlich und zuverlässig, was die gesamte Erfahrung noch angenehmer gemacht hat. Absolut empfehlenswert!
This tour by far is the best I've ever taken.
We had a great time on the tour and learned a lot about recent Turkish history and the way of life in Istanbul. The guide is open to all questions and topics and helped us understand different cultural aspects that interested us! Recommended 100%!
Sahika is very enthusiastic and entertaining tour guide. She wants all guests to get involved and share their opinion. Excellent tour, highly recommended.
The guide provided new and interesting insights from the perspective of a local. We visited less touristic areas which you would never discover on your own. Especially at the end of the tour we had an amazing view from a private terrace. Really worth it!
