The walking tour opens up our outlook of Istanbul, delving into the often forgotten history and seeing its inhabitants life away from the often hectic touristic areas. Ekin , our tour guide was fantastic and shared her intricate knowledge of her hometown with us.

Arthur picked us up at the hotel as arranged and we started as very interesting tour of the Eastern part of Istambul. He is a very knowleable person about history, architecture, etc. Uskudar and Kadikoy are splendid places to visit. We had lunch at a true Turkish restaruant, very nice. Will definitely recommend this tour, especially if Ertugrul is the tour guide.
