Free Walking Tours through Imperial İstanbul

One of the highlights of our trip to Istanbul. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and brought the city's history and culture to life. We especially enjoyed learning about the Grand Bazaar, local customs, and everyday life in Turkey. Highly recommended!

This was hands down the highlight of my trip so far! I booked this, but if there aren’t enough people it gets rescheduled. Mustafa made a lot of good recommendations and took us to a few different spots. The tour was extremely immersive, and felt so unique compared to the other tours we’ve done. Mustafa was so warm and hospitable, it was truly like being shown around by a friend.

I really enjoyed this tour! I went by myself because my friends couldn’t make it, and I’m honestly so glad I still decided to go. Mustafa made the whole experience really enjoyable, and I felt completely comfortable even though I was there alone. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and genuinely passionate about Istanbul and its history. We had several guides during our trip to Istanbul, and Mustafa was by far the best guide we had. I learned so much while also having a really fun time exploring the city. I would definitely recommend this tour. It was a great way to discover Istanbul, learn more about its history, and visit places I probably wouldn’t have explored on my own.

Es un guía entusiasta, explica bien, buenos datos históricos y de religion, para mi gusto faltó ahondar un poco mas en cuanto al gran bazar. Sí lo recomiendo!

It was a great tour, to see the hidden spots of the other old town area that you would yourself never find, the guide- Mustafa, is also very fun and knowledgeable.

Mustafa had a lot of historical knowledge and interesting stories to tell that really made me understand Istanbul/Turkish culture better. It was really nice to also visit some mosques inside and we had a great tea stop on a rooftop in the middle of the bazar. Can recommend everyone visiting Istanbul to join this tour.

Great way to get more from the Bazaar as it really is just a flea market. Nice stories told by Mustapha. Lovely time. Recommended.

We are very glad that we chose this tour and guide to get to know Istanbul. Mustafa is a very nice young man, it is interesting to listen to him. He encouraged questions during the excursion and told interesting facts. With him, we visited places that we would never have found on our own. Travellers don't tell about these places on Instagram, so be sure that you will see a completely delightful Istanbul, for which the Internet did not prepare you. At the end of the evening, we asked him what to try in Istanbul from Turkish food (except for the obvious options that we had already tried) and received several recommendations, which, moreover, were within walking distance. We really liked the place and the dish he recommended. We are also incredibly satisfied with the tour. Thank you so much, Mustafa!

Die Tour hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Besonders schön waren die Wege durch den grossen Bazar und der wunderbare Ausblick auf der Dachterrasse.

Mustafa is an excellent tour guide—genuine, down-to-earth, and incredibly honest. He truly cares about his guests and making sure they have a great experience. Unlike some guides who seem more interested in your money than your experience, Mustafa is sincere, helpful, and genuinely passionate about what he does. I would highly recommend him to anyone visiting the area.

Mustafa was a fantastic guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable and brought Istanbul’s history and culture to life with fascinating stories and insights into how things really work, things we would never have learned on our own. The tour was interesting, engaging and never felt like just a list of facts. Highly recommend Mustafa for anyone wanting to discover Istanbul beyond the obvious sights!

Mustafa is a perfect guide! He is not only very knowledgeable but also has a great sense of humor. The tour itself was very entertaining. I have also eaten at a döner kebab place Mustafa recommended and I can say he has a great taste.
