What a wonderful tour we had with Sevda! We started at the cruise port in Istanbul and traveling in a very comfortable Mercedes Transit vehicle to and from the Old Town area. Sevda shared very interesting information off sites along the way. It took about 45 minutes each direction. I have mobility issues and use Rolanator Walker. Sevda was very in tune to my needs and adjusted the pace of our tour accordingly. Her knowledge of the sites we visited or viewed through out our time with her was amazing. She was very easy to understand. She answered our question thoroughly along the way. We found her to be very personable, kind, caring, and thoughtful! We spend 6 or more hours with her from the start to the finish of our time together. We were taken back with how quickly the time passed during our time with her. When my wife and I reviewed our tour with Sevda on the ship we agreed that she was the best tour guide we have ever spent time with! We recommend her with the highest possible rating and know that if you have the opportunity to tour with her you will feel the same way. She is absolutely amazing! A private tour with her is the best way to experience Istanbul! Thank you Sevda for a wonderful day!
