I am Yusuf AKKAYA, official guide in English, French and Italian languages, certified by Turkish Ministry of Culture. I live in Istanbul and have more than 20 years of experiences.

I collaborated for many years with important travel agencies and VIP delegations. After so many years of intense effort, I finally decided to work in a more relax way in order to have a warm and personal contact with my customers. That’s why I have become a freelance guide.

If I am not available for the required period, I can easily recommend you one of my colleagues who are the best guides of Istanbul.

The prices depend on number of participants, the period of the year (high season – low season) and number of monuments to visit.

To give you an example:

A half-day tour for a family of 4 people is 80€.
