Our day’s guided tour with Fuat was a wonderful introduction to Istanbul’s city of history and culture . Essential in fact and how well he managed to taylor the day to our specific needs. His knowledge and presentation is so good . The magnificence and beauty of Palace and Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosques are a must to experience and in addition , if time, the incredible Cistern , an unbelievable feat of engineering . If we have a chance to return we would definitely contact Fuat and would not hesitate to recommend him.
