I'm Firat, a dedicated local host in Istanbul, and I take great pride in sharing the city's incredible diversity, which blends culture, history, and modern life like no other place in the world. From the historic heart of the Old Peninsula with its bustling markets in Eminonu and Sirkeci to the vibrant streets of Fener, I have a deep knowledge of the neighborhoods that define this city. Whether it's a peaceful cruise along the Bosphorus, a stroll through historic districts, or diving into the city's famous street food culture, I’m here to offer authentic and unique experiences. My love of Istanbul’s rich cultural heritage and culinary scene allows me to craft experiences that go beyond the typical tourist trails, ensuring that you see the real Istanbul. Whether you're a history buff, a foodie, or simply curious, I’m here to take you on an unforgettable journey.
