Photoshoot at the city of ‘History’ Istanbul

Tural's photography skills are amazing, but his skills arent the only thing. He is super friendly and comfortable to be with, and knows how to bring out the best expressions of yourself. You can tell that he is passionate about what he does, and he is not the type to cut you off once the set time is over - he takes the time and makes efforts to get the best shots. He was also a great tour guide, taking us to all the different spots where you can get great shots with the Istanbul landmarks and avoiding the crowds at the same time. It was a great experience and we are really glad we chose him for this occasion!

I'm very much satisfied with his photos. Tural is an artist and has a good skill to lead you smile naturally. If you are looking for an extraordinary record of your travel, this is the right tour. Sultanahmet area can be very crowded and timetaking to move around different spots for shooting. He is friendly and patient to guide you through regardless of the time. Make sure you count in extra hours so that you won't get rushed.

We bought this activity to do during our first morning in Istanbul. When I bought it I was given a meeting time (8:30 AM) and a location to meet. About 2 weeks before the activity the tour operator change the meeting time for 10:00 AM and changed the meeting location. That was to be very inconvenient since we had another tour scheduled starting at noon, but we decided to go ahead even if it meant less time with the photographer. We were not sure about how to locate the meeting location so we left our hotel at 8:30 AM anyway. The directions given were so confusing our taxi driver could not find the meeting place. The location given had a store name and a street address with the name of the neighborhood. We found the store named in the named neighborhood, but with a different street address, we learned this is a chain with multiple location. We got into a second taxi which driver could not find the street address either. We asked some local people who did not know any store at the given street address. WE even went to the first meeting location (which was near) which happened to be a closed coffee shop, with no luck. We (and the helpful locals) called the tour operator at the phone number provided and never got anyone to answer. In short, we waisted precious time during our first day in Istanbul on this wild goose chase.
