About us

The Other Tour offers alternative, human-centered cultural experiences and custom private travel across Istanbul and the rest of Turkey, built around local daily life, food, and neighborhood storytelling rather than standard landmark sightseeing.

What we specialize in, above all, is matching each client with the right professional guide for wherever they're headed — though if we're being honest, our roster is still concentrated mostly in Istanbul. As of July 2026, that roster stands at fifty guides, each one personally vetted rather than pulled from a directory.

Most of what we arrange are daily and multi-day private tours, guided primarily in English, with guides available in other languages on request. Our guides are licensed professionals — historians, archaeologists, and storytellers — who aim for honest conversations about contemporary culture and local heritage rather than a script.
