Off the beaten path neighborhoods, particularly on the Asian side. A lot of insight into the culture of each area. Great to see Bosphorus by small boat.

De and I were lucky enough to find Fethi when we were particularly frazzled trying to organise our trip. He and colleagues organised flights, a cruise on yacht and a fantastic hotel in Rhodes for us when he worked out what sort of people we were. We had a fantastic day and night on Fethi’s Other Tour. Just the three of us went on the local ferries and saw a great variety of areas in Istanbul, not the typical tourist spots. A perfect passionate and hugely knowledgeable tour guide for non typical tourists like ourselves. Highly recommend. Julie and De
