This was our second tour and day spent with Suleyman in Istanbul (he was our friend and teacher at the Topkapi Palace the prior day).  It was amazing to spend two days with him and build upon all that we learned at the Palace.  What made the tour fantastic was Suleyman&#39;s stories about local life in Istanbul and tying in his personal experiences to educating us on the history and culture of the city.  We learned so much about Muslim life (and the lives of people practicing other religions by way of contrast) and living in Turkey by spending the day with him.  Suleyman is amazing and would hope that everyone has the opportunity to spend time with him on their trip to Istanbul.

Suleyman was an amazing guide through the Palace.  His ability to convey both history and culture by comparing and contrasting the Ottoman rule vs western monarchies really drove home the information he was sharing.  He kept the pace perfect for us and, because you can&#39;t possibly cover the entire Palace in a few hours, he helped us decide where to go following our tour.  Suleyman really knows his Ottoman history and can&#39;t imagine a better guide to take you through the Palace and history of the empire.

Betul was excellent. Loved the different &quot;typical&quot; foods she selected for us to try. And it was great to go to Kadikoy and see a part of Istanbul we may not have visited.
