Hello, My name is Necdet, I am a Private Guide that offers Private tours all over Istanbul and Turkey. I enjoy traveling and discovering new places. In particular, I have a special attention to the history of civilizations. So, I've traveled to many ancient cities in Turkey . I decided to study in guiding tour department. Because Turkey is one of the most historicial country in the world. We call this beautiful country, 'Cradle of Civilizations' I was graduated from the University of Balikesir in 2006 and finished my course of training in Antalya. I got my guiding licence from ministry of culture and tourism in 2008. Firstly I worked in southern coast of Turkey. Here, there are a lot of ancient cities and ruins like Side, Aspendos, Perge, Phalises. There are many natural beauties like high mountains , waterfalls , rivers and caves. I like this beautiful city Antalya. But my favorite is the historic city of Istanbul. That is why I moved to Istanbul. I have been guiding in Istanbul since 2008 it was the capital of two great civilizations. Eastern Roman(Byzantine) and Ottoman empires. You can see the deep traces of the two civilizations in istanbul city. I like to share my cultural and historicial informations with my guests. it is my favorite to discover hidden and old places and prepare some specific informations for my guests. I have guided more than thousand people. I know what people wants during their travel. so I attach importance to be on time in meeting point and make my tours more flexible than regular tours and choose the best and local foods and local bazaars. I'll be very happy to guide you in this beautiful city. ***Tour Guide License from Ministry of Culture and Tourism. ***In accordance with the recent amendments of laws regarding tour guiding in Turkey, the guides are not allowed to directly sell tours.

I think it should be an unusual and privileged tour's experience sailing between Asian and European. We take a Bosphorus Sightseeing by Private Yacht up to Istanbul's winding straits for a chance to relax and admire the shoreline of beautiful mosques, lavish palaces, decadent waterfront houses, defensive fortress, suspension bridges, mansions, etc. After touring by Yacht , I am going to take you very colorful place, "Spice Market" it was built in 17th century and has 92 authentic shops which sell dry fruits , Turkish delights , herbal teas and spices as well. After touring inside market , We will see the beautiful Rustem pasha mosque which was very well decorated with blue tiles. I have great knowledge of all these attractions and I can bring them alive for you with the history of the locations, which I truly enjoy. Let's sail together!
Our group of ten had a wonderful tour on the yacht on the Bosphorus for a little more of two hours . Necdet was waiting for us at the exit of the cruise terminal and offered even some public transportation to the yacht harbour . After the cruise we visited the mosque and also went to the spice market where we made some purchases to take home . The whole group had a great time and we will not hesitate to book Necdet again on a return visit to Istanbul
