02 / COMPLETE PRIVATE TOUR
Your Istanbul day,
properly arranged.
A guided experience with the practical side planned around you. Tell us where you are staying, what interests you and how long you have; we’ll shape the day and confirm what is included.
A CLOSER LOOK
An itinerary with room to breathe.
Our complete private-tour option suits people who would rather have one conversation than coordinate the day themselves. We start with your interests, not a rigid list of photo stops.
A proposal can combine licensed guiding with a planned route, meeting arrangements and—where required—private transport or other services. Nothing is assumed to be included until it appears in your quote.
What we can discuss
- An itinerary designed for your group and available time
- Licensed professional guiding
- Hotel or port pickup arrangements, if required
- Optional vehicle and transfers
- Admission and meal arrangements where appropriate
ONE POSSIBLE DAY / NOT A FIXED PACKAGE
From Sultanahmet
to the waterfront.
A suggested rhythm for a first visit. Your own itinerary may look completely different.
- MorningMeet near Sultanahmet. Explore the Hippodrome and major monuments from the outside, with selected visits planned around opening hours.
- MiddayPause for lunch, then walk through the historic commercial streets toward the waterfront.
- AfternoonCross by ferry or explore Karaköy, depending on the weather, the group’s energy and confirmed arrangements.
BEFORE YOU ASK
The practical questions
Is a private vehicle always included? +
No. Istanbul’s traffic often makes walking, ferries and trams more practical. We include transport only if agreed in the proposal.
Do you guarantee fast-track entry? +
No. Entry procedures and queues depend on the venue and its current rules; we never promise privileged entry without confirmation.
Can the itinerary change on the day? +
There may be flexibility, subject to museum hours, distance, confirmed bookings and the guide’s agreed working time.
What is the difference from hiring only a guide? +
Guide-only focuses on the guide’s time and expertise. A complete private tour involves broader planning and any agreed extra services described in the quote.
