“Dripping with personality and energy”

Review of The Other Tour

TheOtherTour by TheOtherTour
June 9, 2026
in Istanbul Travel Blog, Review, The Other Tour
Reading Time: 1 min read

Simply the best tour I have ever been on…. Information and experience dripping with personality and energy…

Istanbul is a whopper city of more than 20 million people.. So to try and see it in a day is fool-hardy but by golly did our tour guides give it a good go…

We had a packed itinerary that wasn’t just fulfilled it was added to.

I work in the Arts and can find tours stuffy at times with information delivered a la mundane but ‘The Other Tour‘ was never in danger of that.

History was punctuated with humour, facts were refreshed with an edge.

All that said… If you like your good-times served straight down the line and dressed in trousers pulled above the waist then this may not be for you.

If you have a lust for the liberal then this could be your best bet.
