A unforgettable experience, hosted by the experienced and well informed Fethi. This must rank as one of travel’s great experiences, and Fethi’s offbeat approach adds huge dimension to an already amazing city, taken from the perspective of daily life in the city, far from the tourist crush of the SultanAhmet. For those looking for something different while in Istanbul, this is a must do.
