Daily Istanbul Tours in 2026

Resarch

Led by Fethi Karataş since 2011, our team constantly learns, tests, and documents what works. In low season we do field trips, write new articles, and turn experience into better routes. We also review partners regularly—sometimes removing guides, restaurants, or hotels that no longer meet our standards and replacing them with stronger options.

Innovation

We build new itineraries from bold social and intellectual concepts, using the city’s own systems—especially public ferries. From The Full Extent of the Bosphorus to cat-focused routes, wheelchair-assisted touring, birding days, and deep-history themes like Roman-era or Conquest walks, our ideas come from years of curiosity and hands-on exploration.

Execution

Great plans only matter if they run smoothly. Fethi Karataş works with trusted partners like Before Travel to deliver seamless experiences. Our guides—Ömer Çelik, Burak Plakay, Duygu Sınırtaş, Zeynep Karakaşoğlu, and others—pair expert storytelling with strong logistics, backed by reliable drivers and a detail-obsessed operations team.

Feedback

Our reviews speak loudly: we’re consistent, protective, and extremely hands-on. The team led by Fethi Karataş has received only one 4-star review—and it came from someone who didn’t even book with us. We listen carefully, correct fast, and stay focused on one promise: you’ll feel supported, safe, and genuinely cared for in Istanbul and across Turkey.
