I have been passionate about traveling and discovering new places since childhood. After my highschool years, i got used to the peace of being in nature by hitchhiking and camping. I especially enjoy building international friendships and then I decided to become a Professional Tour guide. As a person who was born and raised in Istanbul, I will be happy to show you around. ✌️

 Are you ready for a professional guide to tell you about little-known stories and local life on the Asian (Anatolian) side?

Dear guests, welcome to Istanbul! First of all, we will meet at the main entrance of the Eminönü - Üsküdar Ferry Pier'' and take a unique ferry ride from the Historic Peninsula to Üsküdar which is known as a Balcony of İstanbul.

There will be information about the Maiden's Tower, which has become the symbol of Üsküdar. We will walk to visit and photograph the Valide-i Cedid Mosque ( Queen Sultan), which is almost a marble paradise, and walk through the Historical Bazaar of Üsküdar
 
We go to Beylerbeyi Palace, the most beautiful palace on the Anatolian side. I'll buy garden tickets for everyone and after a brief information in the garden, we take a photo/toilet break.

then after leaving the palace we will take another bus to the Kuzguncuk, it's an old historic Jewish Quarter with colorful houses then we will visit the Kuzguncuk public orchard and photograph the colorful houses. that will be ending point for the tour. U will be informed about all transportations :) 


 Keep in mind :)

 Ferry tickets are 22+30 = 40 TL
 Bus tickets are   20 x 3  = 60 TL
