"Dear Hakan,
We are now back in Dubai and I just wanted to write to thank you for
the excellent service you provided our family during our time in
Istanbul.
We so enjoyed our day with Meltem, who was absolutely lovely –
friendly, intelligent and with excellent interesting knowledge – she
was a perfect companion for us all, from my 10 year old son to my
husband! Engin, our driver, was also wonderful, and it was great to
cross from one continent to another in the comfort and luxury of
your spotless Mercedes!
We will most surely recommend your services to anyone we know
travelling to Istanbul.
Many thanks.
Kind regards."

"Dear Hakan
My wife and I would like to thank you
again for the excellent service and personal attention you provided
while we were in Istanbul. Knowing that we had very little free time
in Istanbul on our way to and from a business meeting elsewhere in
Turkey, I knew we could not afford wasting time getting lost with a
"do-it-yourself" tour of Istanbul. Luckily, I came across your
website, and after several emails, decided your service was our best
option.
The peace of mind knowing that
once we landed we were being met by you or your people, and from
that point forward in expert hands that included knowledge of the
history, language, culture, sites and cuisine (oh yes, and the
shopping) until we were back at the airport, was alone worth the
price of your service.
You not only met but exceeded
our expectations. Your vehicles were first class, as well as your
drivers. The only time lost during our short visit was in Istanbul's
famous traffic jams, but even then your folks came up with short
cuts. With your help we were able to experience the most important
sites in Istanbul and learn their history, enjoy some excellent
restaurants, meet interesting and friendly natives, and be
introduced to the most reputable merchants in less than three full
days. Best of all, by the time we left Istanbul we felt we had made
a new friend in Turkey, Hakan.
Since returning we have talked
to several of our friends and acquaintances with plans to visit
Istanbul in the near future, and each time we have strongly
recommended they contact you if they want to make the most of their
visit.
We look forward to our next
chance to visit your beautiful city.
Best Regards,"

"Hi Hakan, we just wanted to thank you so much for everything
you did for us while we were in Istanbul.
Our experience with your company was excellent. When the airline
lost my luggage you were so helpful to us in getting it back.
The tour guide you provided was the best we ever had and the
automobile and driver were spotless and a must have.
Again thank you for everything and we will definitely call you
if we come to Turkey again.
Please
feel free to post our experience on your web site."

"Dear Hakan:
A few words to personally thank you
and your staff, (David, our knowledgeable guide and Mustafa, our
driver), for the wonderful time spent in Istanbul.
Certainly, this would not have been possible without your expertise,
warm hospitality and friendliness. In three short days, we became
good friends, not 'clients', as is the usual case.
We can assure you that the experience was a marvelous one, thus, we
are sadly leaving for our homes in Puerto Rico with heartfelt
desires to see you all again soon in your wonderful and historic
city.
With our sincere appreciation,"

"Praise for Hakan and Guides of
Istanbul.
I can't say enough here, about
how thorough, friendly + informative our guide, Abdullah, is. We
booked the 4-day VIP II Tours. This is well worth the money. For
three days we visited the ancient sites + learned about the history
of Turkey. We also got to visit some of the places the locals go to
in the evenings. Our children, ages 7 and 9, really enjoyed
themselves.
The VIP II Tour also gets you
one day with the owner, Hakan. A private boat cruise along the
Bosphorus and a tour of Taksim Square and the Galata Tower.
Both Hakan and Abdullah are as
if they are part of our family."

"Hi Hakan:
I am finally back in the U.S. after a lengthy trip (I had meetings
in Lisbon and Nice after leaving Istanbul) and wanted to follow up
with you. Thank you so very much for the wonderful tours, service
and personal attention you provided for me and my family. We were
all so very delighted with the entire experience which we will
cherish for the rest of our lives. I know that my Dad was
particularly excited about his experience, and in large part that
goes to you and Abdullah for your superb service and friendship. I’m
sorry we didn’t have a chance to say thank you in person or to see
you on our last day, but I know you were extremely busy.
Istanbul is an amazing city and I was so excited to see and
experience so much of it. I will definitely want to come back again,
and also want to see more of Turkey. Should we have any clients
looking for touring in Istanbul, I will of course recommend you
highly and hope that I will have that opportunity one day.
Once again, thank you for everything – we will cherish our memories
of a wonderful trip and wonderful people.

"Dear Hakan,
I have been meaning to write to
you to thank you for arranging such a wonderful guide for our
tour of Istanbul. He was charming and sincere, conveying his
love of Istanbul to us. We had a tremendous tour and would not
hesitate to recommend Guides of Istanbul to anyone considering a
trip to Istanbul for either short or long duration. You may post
this on your web-site and have anyone contact us for
confirmation. The vehicle and driver were exemplary. We were met
on time at 7:30 a.m. (which when you are getting off a cruise
ship for a one-day tour of a place you have been wanting to see
your entire life, is critically important) and we were taken
back to the cruise ship in plenty of time for departure (which
is also critical) at 4:15 p.m..
Unlike the people on the
cruise, we had a leisurely and personally informed tour that you
could actually hear of the Blue Mosque, St. Sophia, the
Cisterns, the Hippodrome, the Grand Bazar and the Spice Bazar.
As well, we had a wonderful lunch in a small local eatery where
the locals ate. To anyone thinking about taking a tour with
Guides of Istanbul, don't think twice. The service and guides
are exemplary!!!!
Thanks again Hakan --- we'll be
back......"

We’ll
certainly recommend all of you in the future should any friends
be coming to Turkey.

"Hello Hakan,
One of the smartest things we did on our Mediterranean
Cruise was to contact you for a guided tour of
Istanbul. I took the time to check out some of your
references on the internet. Each one gave your firm high
praises, and they turned out to all be true. My wife and
I were most pleased and your guide and driver which were
excellent. Not only were they on time picking us up, but
both were very knowledgeable about Istanbul. The driver
would drop us off at a sight. When nearly finished, the
guide would call the driver on where to pick us up. Off
we would go to the next selected sight. That night on
the ship we heard all kinds of stories about how the
ships excursion busses were tied up in traffic and they
missed half their Istanbul tour.
I have already recommended your firm to several people
who are going to Turkey.
Thanks,"

gracias a vuestros servicios, he podido rentabilizar el tiempo al
máximo y conocer, no sólo los monumentos, los mercados y los
rincones turísticos, sino también he conocido y saboreado partes de
la ciudad que no son tan turísticas.
Gracias por vuestra amabilidad y cortesía. David y tú habéis sido

haya pasado dos días en un agradable y cortés ambiente.

"Estimado Hakan,
Queremos expresarle nuestra gratitud por la maravillosa estancia
de la que nos han hecho disfrutar en su ciudad.
Su profesionalidad, capacidad de organización, puntualidad,
amabilidad y simpatía han hecho que disfrutáramos de un viaje
que para nosotros será inolvidable.
De la mano de Jak, nuestro guía, hemos podido conocer una de las
más bellas ciudades del mundo con todos sus contrastes, su
cultura y sus costumbres. Sus amplios conocimientos, su cortesía
y su exquisita educación nos han dado a conocer tantos aspectos
de la misma ciudad que difícilmente hubiéramos podido adquirir
si su presencia.
El tercer día que pasamos con usted fue el colofón perfecto para
nuestra corta estancia en Estambul. Recordaremos con nostalgia
el inigualable crucero por las aguas del Bósforo disfrutando de
su compañía a la vez que degustábamos su preciado café turco,
todo un recuerdo para los sentidos.
El trato recibido por su personal, chóferes y guía fue
inmejorable.
Hemos vuelto a casa con la sensación de haber dejado en Estambul
a dos amigos Hakan y Jak, y esperamos poder repetir esta
experiencia tan enriquecedora en todos los aspectos. No sólo
hemos conocido los monumentos de una gran ciudad, hemos conocido
a sus habitantes, su cultura, su forma de entender la vida y su
gastronomía. Jamás pensamos que en tan poco tiempo podríamos
enamorarnos tan pronto de un lugar, Estambul, y esto es gracias
a ustedes, buenos profesionales que con su saber hacer y estar
han hecho de nuestra estancia algo difícil de olvidar.
Reciba un afectuoso saludo de sus amigos,"

"Dear Hakan,
I just wanted to thank you so much for making our
trip to Istanbul one of the best trips abroad we have ever had. Each
night when we came back to our hotel, my daughter would run into the
room and say, "Mom, that was so much fun!" Our guide, Riza Yenice,
was so knowledgeable. Not only did we see all the beautiful sites, I
also felt we learned a great deal about Istanbul's history and
culture.
Every detail of the trip was meticulously arranged,
right down to dinner recommendations and reservations. Our driver
Serkan was also top-notch. All we had to do was relax and enjoy
ourselves!
I definitely plan to make a return trip, and I look
forward to letting you show me some of Turkey's other treasures. In
the meantime, I have beautiful pictures and lots of fond memories.
Thank you again.

Hakan
Hemos realizado un espléndido viaje, donde nos hemos sentido muy
bien atendidos y guiados de forma extraordinaria. Te lo dice alguien
que está habituado a viajar de forma muy privada y organizada.
Quiero
destacar la amable puntualidad así como la perfecta y simpática
corrección en todos los sentidos del amigo Serkan. La magnífica
labor de Apo, nuestro guía, que con su extenso conocimiento logró
hacernos un poco más cultos de forma amena y entretenida, arropando
con su calidez y calidad humana una relación que sobrepasó en todos
los aspectos las mas altas expectativas.
Por último
agradecerte profundamente tu magnífica acogida y organización así
como el fenomenal día que pasamos contigo, conociendo el Bósforo y
el Estambul más actual y moderno.
Es relevante
la medida en que la calidad de personas y servicios así como su
coordinación afectan en el resultado de un viaje de vacaciones. En
tu caso, Hakan, debo expresar mi más sincera gratitud. Lograste
hacer de esta corta estancia una soberbia vivencia y un inolvidable

Hi,
‘’Thank you for the hospitality you and your company provided
myself and my family during our holiday in Istanbul. The service
you provided was superlative.
Our guide
Abdullah was extremely knowledgeable and gave us an accurate
insight of the history in Istanbul and all the historic sights.
My daughters are going to miss Abdullah as he constantly kept
them entertained, my 6yr old Myah has already written a story
about our visit and about Abdullah.
The vehicle was amazing I would say ‘proper luxury’ Serkan drove
exceptionally well and safely.
You
provided us with amazing memories that we will cherish for a
very long time, and hopefully we will visit again very soon and
enjoy your services once again.’’
Hope to see you in a couple of months to pick up the watches.

"Dear Mr. Gurger,
The whole family was very happy with our stay in
Istanbul. Your services (bus, driver, organization) were just
perfect. We never had any problem and everything went very smooth.
You could not possibly do better. The traffic jams in your beautiful
city are not your fault!!!
Mr. Tibet is a perfect guide, very patient in
answering our hundreds of questions, loving his country and very
interesting to discuss with. He knows the history of Turkey very
well and is very ineresting in his explanations. We intend to visit
Capadoce in the future and will then try to go there with Mr. Tibet.
Everytime we come to Turkey, we love this country and its people
more and more. We only hope that it will not be unstabilized for
political and religeous reasons and that it will very soon enter
into the Eruopaen community.
Thank you again for all your kind help and we hope
all of us, to meet you again very soon."

"Hola
Hakan,
Soy
Montse Torá y te mando este correo desde Barcelona, no sé si te
acordaras de mí pero por si acaso te doy más datos,
contratamos vuestros servicios para un tour de un día por vuestra
maravillosa ciudad el pasado verano, más concretamente el 31 Julio,
éramos 5 personas que llegábamos a Estambul en el Gran Voyager y
teníamos muy poco tiempo para visitar la ciudad, y tampoco sabíamos
por donde empezar, al veros en Internet pensamos que nos podríais
ayudar, y la verdad es que fue la mejor y más provechosa visita de
todo el crucero, Hasan, el que fue nuestro guía fue fantástico y
puso el listón muy alto a los demás guías que nos acompañaron
durante los tour del crucero. Nos llevó casi exhaustos a ver la
mayor cantidad de cosas bonitas que se pueden ver en Estambul, nos
llevó a comer a un restaurante donde la comida era buenísima, y
además tenía unas vistas espectaculares y nos cuidó mucho,
especialmente a Ana una jovencita de 15 años con mucho peligro.
Bueno desde Barcelona un saludo de Angeles,

"Estimado Hakan:
Sólo quería saludarlo y decirle que nuestro viaje continuó
por Turquía (Capadocia y Ankara) luego fuimos al crucero por
el río Nilo, luego a Grecia: Atenas y la parte continental
hasta Kalambaka, y luego Madrid.
Todo biem, pero demasiado largo y agotador.
De
los países, a pesar de las conmovedoras riquezas
arqueológicas de Egipto y Grecia, a mí lo que más me gustó
fue Turquía. Y, volveré más de una vez a Estambul.
En Capadocia me compré una alfombra, que mandé a hacer, y me
llega en Junio.
Quiero agradecerle sus atenciones porque gracias al cómodo
auto y a que teníamos su oficina y a ud. todo nos fue más
fácil y pudimos sobrevivir al frio de la nieve y el sol.
Ya de regreso a Chile y pasada la semana Santa (Chile es
mayoritariamente Católico) me he reintegrado a mis
actividades.
No quería dejar de pasar mucho tiempo para darle las gracias
y decirle que su país es muy hermoso, pujante, la gente es
muy amable y Estambul es mágico.
Le saluda con afecto"

"Querido Hakan,
Quiero reiterarte en mi nombre y en el de mi esposa Inma las
atenciones y el servicio recibidos durante nuestra visita a
Estambul. Lamentablemente la visita no pudo ser completa por causas
completamente ajenas a nuestra voluntad pero, como hemos comentado
esta manana, la proxima vez en 2009 volveremos con nuestro hijo para
una estancia algo mas larga y con extension a Capadocia tambien.
Por favor trasladale nuestro agradecimiento tambien a Zeynep por su
profesionalidad y simpatia durante el dia que pasamos en
Sultanahmet. Nos hubiera gustado despedirmos de ella personalmente
pero lamentamos que no fuera posible.
Yo tengo pensado volver a Estambul por trabajo seguramente en
Septiembre. Estaremos en contacto para organizar un servicio de
coche y conductor para mis desplazamientos.
Lo dicho. Un placer y espero verte pronto. Estamos en contacto.

"Dearest Mr. Gurger,
I would like to thank you very much
for making my stay in Istanbul especially memorable. The tour guide
you have provided me, Ms. Meltem, has been extraordinary. After
spending 2 days with Meltem, I feel like we've been friends forever.
She is just lovely and she made me feel so at ease the entire time.
I have had a chance to experience not only the wonderful sights but
as well the history of Istanbul. I also had the pleasure of getting
to know a little bit of the culture as well. My experience with your
private tour has been the best I've had.
I must also mention that my transportation and its driver have been
so comfortable. I apologize that I don't remember his name but I
wanted to acknowledge him as well. He's been so patient and made my

"Hello Hakan,
I just wanted to drop you a note and tell you how pleased we were
with the guided tour that you set up for our group. We were met at
the airport and each morning, promptly, and Earphan (forgive the
spelling, I never saw his name spelled out), our guide, was
knowledgeable and helpful. We were able to see much more than we
could possible have seen on our own, and we were thrilled that we
learned so much about the city and country.
A special thanks to you for helping us at the hotel that first
night, when our reservations were lost. You were a world of help to
us in straightening it out.
We look forward to visiting Istanbul again in the future, and your
service will be our first choice for a guide.

"Buenas tardes Hakan, con un poco de retraso pero tal y como
habiamos acordado mi esposa y yo te enviamos un mail para
agradecer a ti y a tu equipo el haber contribuido a hacer mas
agradables e interesantes nuestras vacaciones en Estambul.
Sin duda una ciudad unica
que merece la pena descubrir y hacerlo ademas de la mano de un
buen guia como en nuestro caso fue Zeynep, el servicio de chofer
con un van Mercedes es muy recomendable y funciono siempre
puntual y amable.
Como sabes el Hotel
Kempinsky es fantastico ademas de estar situado en un entorno
privilegiado. Nos encanto el Bosforo y el Cuerno de Oro.
Los restaurantes que nos
recomendaste resultaron agradables, aunque es una de las partes
del servicio que se puede mejorar ampliando un poco la seleccion
e informando un poco mas del tipo de cocina, entorno, nivel de
precio etc.
De nuevo Hakan gracias por
tu amabilidad y sin duda recomendaremos vuestros a servicios a

estambul. Cuando hablamos con gente que ha estado ahi, me doy
cuenta que no han visto Estambul, han estado en Estambul,
nosotras realmente hemos conocido una pequeña parte de esa
maravillosa ciudad pero lo que hemos visto lo hemos disfrutado
centimetro a centimetro.
No dudes que si volvemos como si conocieramos a alguien que
fuera no dudariamos en aconsejarle que se pusieran en contacto
contigo. Mi madre y mi tia me dan recuerdos para vosotros y me
suscriben en todo lo que ya te he dicho antes.

Gracias a ustedes pasamos
un día fantástico en Istambul. Jaime es un guía genial y,
por supuesto, una persona encantadora.
A pesar del lamentable
incidente que sufrimos en el restaurante del barrio de
Kumkapi, nos hemos llevado un magnifico recuerdo de su
maravillosa ciudad. (Sabemos perfectamente que hechos como
este pueden ocurrir en cualquier parte del mundo,
desgraciadamente también en Barcelona, y con mayor
frecuencia de la que todos desearíamos). Pero,
afortunadamente también, en todas partes, hay gente tan
amigable como ustedes.
Con toda seguridad vamos a
recomendar sus servicios a cualquier persona, amigos y
conocidos, que en un futuro quieran visitar
su cautivadora tierra.
Una vez mas, muchísimas
gracias por todo.
Reciba un cordial saludo y
un abrazo para Jaime."

"Estimado Hakan:
Después de nuestro
viaje a Estambul, no dejamos mi mujer y yo de recordar los
inolvidables días que hemos pasado allí. La ciudad es
impresionante, sus gentes, los lugares, …pero el como hemos conocido
la ciudad es la que más nos ha marcado. Nuestra experiencia ha sido
extraordinaria.
Vuestros servicios no sólo nos han permitido ver la ciudad y sus
rincones, aprender de las costumbres, conocer con detalle la
historia, sino que lo más importante para nosotros ha sido contar
con profesionales como vosotros que han hecho que nuestra estancia
sea mágica.
Muchas gracias por vuestra simpatía, profesionalidad y empeño en
lograr que turistas como nosotros se lleven el mejor recuerdo de una
ciudad tan apasionante como Estambul.
Volveremos, eso puedes contar con ello.
Un
fuerte abrazo para ti y todo tu equipo."

"Dear
Hakan:
Just a quick note
to let you know how much we benefited from your services. The guides
and drivers you arranged for our group of 6 in Ephesus and Istanbul
were outstanding and helped make our trip special. They really knew
their stuff.
We especially
enjoyed the day we got to spend with you and see the other side/the
non tourist side of Istanbul. Great insight into the world of today!
Thanks again for
your assistance.
And don’t forget,
when you go back to Northwestern for a class reunion, come and visit
us in St. Louis."

"On our recent European trip we had five guides. You were far
and away the best. When we first met you the first thing my wife
said to me after we had a minute alone was; "he really does
speak American English". Some of the things we loved about you
as a guide were: your extraordinary knowledge of Istanbul and
all of its buildings and history, you showed us a huge variety
of life in Istanbul, you went at our pace slowing down when we
needed to. Within a couple of hours we felt like we were friends
and by the end of the day and a half it felt like you were our
son.
We
laughed we talked and we ate together, this is what friendship
and family are about. When my wife got tired you immediately
found us a place to sit and eat. And the places you took us
would be favorite restaurants if they were in Los Angeles. I
just opened a box of Divan chocolates and think of you every
time I eat one. Experiencing the people the culture and the food
of Istanbul is a treasure that I will savor all of my life.
In
addition to being the best guide we had you weren'teven the most
expensive! I highly recommend it to anybody looking for a guide
in Istanbul. If they live in the United States tell them to call
me at 800-995-1426 and I would be happy to share with them our
experience with you.
Sincerely,"

"Hakan,
It has been 2 months since we were on our cruise and had the
opportunity to see you and Istanbul. Some of the people in the
group that we talk to all the time still talk about it and
especially the day we had in Istanbul with you.
Being able to
tour with just our group made it a more intimate setting and we
were able to ask more questions as we were seeing the sights.
Everyone still talks about the Grand Bazaar and the lunch that
we had with you and how that really capped off a great trip. We
really did enjoy you and the visit to your city very much and
are looking forward to the next time that we have the
opportunity to come and visit. You can be sure that you will get
a call from us when we do.
You can
certainly use us as a reference and anyone that we book into
that area will be given your name to set up tours with.
If you are
ever able to be in the Northwest part of the U.S. and have the
time let us know so we can show you around the area.
Thanks again
for an absolutely great tour and a fantastic ending to our
cruising experience."

"We would like to express our deep appreciation for the tour guide
services provided by Hakan Gurger in Istanbul, Turkey.
Hakan was very
amicable and accomodated our suggestions with a fine itinerary that
included a scholarly integration of the history of ancient and
modern Turkey.
He was extremely
pleasant, had fluency in English, a wonderful contageous sense of
humor that added to our two day tour.
With his
assistance we were able to see what we wanted as he took our
suggestions and together with his knowledge of Istanbul built a two
day tour to fit our time and agenda.
We would most
highly recommend Hakan to others who want a knowledgeable and
pleasant guide for one, two, or more days."

In spite of
having seen everything on previous trips to Istanbul, our decision
to hire you to guide us was the best decision we could have made.
Your knowledge of
the history, religions, and layout of the city was fabulous - and
your sense of humor was icing on the cake.
When we return to
Istanbul, and I expect we will, we will certainly contact you to
help us explore other treasures in the most historic of cities.

Fue un placer
conocerte y un enorme gusto conocer Istambul contigo.
Tus conocimientos
fueron enriquecedores para nuestra experiencia, los lugares que
visitamos tuvieron la combinación
exacta entre lo tradicional turístico y lo poco visitado, que
permite acercarnos más a un Istambul distinto.
Te extendemos la invitación para que nos visites en México.

"Dear Hakan:
We would like to
thank you for showing us your city. The two days of cultural touring
left us very appreciative of the depth of Istanbul's history.
We appreciated
the lovely restaurants you recommended, and your overall passion and
enthusiasm.
Having you drive
us around the entire city allowed us to see much more than we would
have accomplished alone. Thank you for being a safe and careful
driver.
It was great fun
and we thank you for your energetic effort. We learned a lot, we ate
a lot and we felt very secure in your care.

"Dear Hakan,
We
would like to sincerely thank you for the excellent service you
provided during our first visit to Istanbul.
Your detailed knowledge of the city and its
various cultural sites is superb. Given your efficient planning, we
were not only able to visit the usual sites, but also were able to
experience the local offerings that we may have missed (especially
the delicious local cuisine!!)
Even prior to our arrival, your attention to
detail and service via email was most appreciated.
We look forward to visiting this beautiful and
rich city again; hopefully with our children and with you again as
our guide.
Thank you again for the memorable visit to
Turkey!!

"Listen up, fellow
citizens! Multiply your experience in one of the most intriguing
cities in the world. Hire Hakan Gurger; he was punctual, his manners
courtly, and his humor delightful. Hakan has perfect idiomatic
American English, and knew the current NFL standings and the UNC
basketball bench better than I. He also ordered the perfect lunch.
He may be an
Osmani prince. Of course he knows details about the various sites,
but complements these facts with the political and social
under-story. His pride in Istanbul, its people, and its future is
infectious. He and I talked politics at lunch; he gave my grown sons
an audio tour of contemporary Turkish rock and roll during the
drive.
All in all, it
was a perfect day."

"Dear Hakan,
Today
marked the culmination of our four day visit to your beautiful city
of Istanbul.
Thanks to your
professional guidance and companionship, we had very concentrated
doses of informative history, sociology, culture, religion and
ethnic exposure; but above all, it was your pleasant personality,
patience and your utmost desire to please your clients, that made
our visit such a special and memorable one.
We leave Istanbul
with a sense of sorrow that time was too short to cover the vast
wealth of heritage but with the reassurance that we have you a
friend for life.
Hakan, thanks for
making our stay a pleasant and educational one; we look forward to
many future visits with your company of course.

"We've had four wonderful days with
Hakan as our guide and he helped us enjoy the city and its beautiful
mosques, churches, palaces, markets and all other monuments. Besides
providing all kinds of necessary information about the city and its
history, Hakan was able to comprehend our unique preferences and
make suggestions accordingly. From the restaurants and events he
picked for us to the daily plans, we can easily say that, even if we
had known the city, the culture and the language extremely well, we
could not have prepared a better four-day trip to Istanbul for
ourselves.
Moreover, a
few points worth mentioning are: Hakan was always right on time to
pick us up from our hotel. He was always very polite calling us Mr.
and Mrs. throughout the four days.
We should also add that Istanbul
is probably one of the most outstanding cities in the world and we
recommend everyone planning a visit to this wonderful city to
contact Hakan and let him take you through the wonders of the city."

have to be the Cafe Pierre Loti. And the Dolmabahce Palace is simply
unbelieveable. Well, anyway.. Thanks so much again.."

Hakan was willing
to pace his tour of Istanbul to suit me. He is enthusiastic and
passionate about Istanbul and this comes through in his detailed
knowledge about the history, religious influences and politics of
Istanbul. He is willing to tackle any subject you desire to talk
about.
I felt safe and relaxed with him as my tour guide and would
happily recommend him to anyone who wants an en | |
