Private Tours in Istanbul: A Tailored Journey Through History

Magical is the only word that can accurately describe Istanbul. It is a merging of different cultures like East & West with many historic civilizations have touched the city indelibly. And though you can go around by yourself, we think it is far better to experience the true history, culture and the interesting hidden spots with a private tour. It isn’t simply about seeing the highlights but witnessing the city in a manner you will never forget.

Why You Should Visit Istanbul?

Istanbul is not just another geographical location; it is the center of history for Turkey. It offers a rare blend of East and West with Byzantine wonders of Hagia Sophia and other Roman relics accompanied by the aesthetics of Ottoman palaces and luxury bazaars. If it is history that fascinates you, or architecture, or discovering new places, then Istanbul is of that kind of nature that will intrigue every traveler who visits there.

But here’s the thing- while the magnificent sights are great, the real essence of the place are the tales behind the magnificent structures. What better way to get stories than employing a person who will tell the story of the city as it once was? That is why when you go for a private experience, this is something which no amount of research and reading of guidebooks will prepare you for.

How to Visit with a Private Tour?

A personal tour does not mean that you will have to be arranged by any “excursions specialist,” and also that you’ll do such planning independently.

Private tour is better than the standardized tours offered by local travel agencies in Istanbul, as you will get complete freedom. We customize every single tour according to your desired activities. Looking to spend an entire day on the grounds of the Topkapi Palace in order to completely absorb its imperial past? Or would you prefer to let your feet roam the narrow dim lit alleyways, wandering extremely old Byzantine ruins, probably off the tourist maps? On a private tour, just say the word and we will adjust all the details according to your preferences and pace.

One of the great benefits of a private tour is no queuing in crowds. We suggest that the best way to appreciate the Blue Mosque is when there are not thousands of visitors that make the sacred place more of a spectacle than worship. In addition, your tour guide can change the day at any time – do you see an interesting little café that you want into? No problem. What about that deserted street with no tourists? Let’s go on and see what’s there.

What to Expect from a Private Tour?

One of those days, we may begin at the Hippodrome, where the crowds once cheered for the chariot races. Then, perhaps, we would proceed towards the Hagia Sophia, one of the most breathtaking structures to have ever graced this earth, fused with Christian and Muslim aspects. But if you’re more into art, we can hit up the Istanbul Modern or even explore the underground wonders of the Basilica Cistern.

We also know the best spots for lunch—whether you’re craving a quick döner or a more leisurely meal with stunning views of the Bosphorus. It’s all part of making your day in Istanbul exactly what you want it to be.
