My guide Mustafa was friendly and kind. He took me to all the places I wanted to visit and told me all about the history and meaning of sites in Istanbul. I had a great day and highly recommended for solo travellers.
Wonderful companion who met us at the Fairmont for breakfast and asked one basic question: do you have any must dos and what are you thinking ? Since we were newbies and had a short stay… we just said… we’ll follow It was fun filled day of food, art and history We couldn’t have asked for anything more Perfect
Mustafa was an excellent guide and made our time in Istanbul both enjoyable and efficient. His knowledge of the city, history, and local culture was impressive, and one thing we particularly appreciated was his ability to pivot around crowds and adjust the day to keep things moving smoothly. That flexibility made a big difference in helping us enjoy the city without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. A highlight of the experience was exploring some off-the-beaten-path local restaurants that we almost certainly would not have found on our own. We had what was probably the best künefe I’ve ever had, and those food moments ended up being some of the most memorable parts of the tour. For future travelers, one thing to be aware of is that the tour may include ceramic and rug showroom visits. While interesting from a cultural perspective, these experiences do involve sales presentations and can feel a bit more commercial than the rest of the day. Personally, that part was not my favorite and took away slightly from an otherwise fantastic experience. Overall, Mustafa is a knowledgeable, personable, and highly capable guide, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone wanting to experience Istanbul with someone who truly knows the city.
Mustafa Gokmen Evcili was one of the best tour guides we have ever had, not only was he super knowledgeable, but it genuinely felt like hanging out with a friend for the day who was showing us all the sights. He showed us around whatever we wanted to see and shared histories and facts and we also sat down for a lunch together mid way through. My partner and I are both architects and he was able to personalise the tour for us telling us interesting things that non-architects may not find so interesting. Being able to skip the lines at attractions was also a great positive, he seemed to know a lot of people and this allowed for special treatment. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone, it is well worth the cost, we were also able to swap contacts incase we are wanting to reconnect for anything when we are back in town. Just an overall great experience and a great way to see Istanbul!
An Unforgettable Experience with the Best Guide in Turkey! Mustafa was hands down the highlight of our trip to Turkey. From the moment we met him, it was clear we were in the hands of a true expert and passionate storyteller. He didn’t just guide us—he brought the rich history and culture of Istanbul to life. Whether we were standing in awe beneath the dome of the Hagia Sophia, admiring the intricate beauty of the Blue Mosque, or walking through the opulent halls of Dolmabahçe Palace, Mustafa knew every detail, legend, and hidden corner. His knowledge is encyclopedic, but it never felt like a lecture—it felt like we were exploring with a friend who genuinely loves his city and wants you to love it too. He also took us to an incredible local restaurant (still dreaming about that meal!) and a stunning rug shop with no pressure, just warmth and hospitality. Every stop on our tour felt authentic, personal, and perfectly curated. We cannot recommend Mustafa enough. If you’re visiting Turkey and want to experience the country’s history, culture, and charm in the most enriching way possible, Mustafa is your guy!
My wife and I had two days to explore Istanbul and wanted to make the most of our visit. On day one, we hired Mustafa Evcili at the recommendation of the concierge at our hotel. We opted for the 8 hour guide as we felt that 4 hours may not be enough and we could always end the day early if we were tired. Needless to say, the 8 hours flew by with Mustafa as our guide. His knowledge of the city (and region!) was so helpful in bringing what we were seeing for the first time into historical perspective. While taking us to the sites we requested, he paid attention to what we liked and, based on the questions we asked and our discussions, he then took us to places off the beaten path that he thought might interest us. I was amazing! We felt we got an insider's view of the Grand Bazaar and the Spice Market, as well as a few stops to do a bit of shopping where no tourist would ever find. We can't thank Mustafa enough. Please seek him out as your guide. You will not be dissapointed.
Mr Mustafa, showed us around Istanbul and definitely an excellent tour guide . From local food, sightseeing, walking tour, and shopping it is worth it . Speaks Good English also !
The private day long tour of the highlights of Istanbul with my guide Serkan was a very interesting and positive experience. The day went quickly despite rainy conditions. Serkan was a wealth of knowledge and also quite kind. I would recommend a tour with Serkan.
