Osman Günay - the best guide in town - Osman gave us an insightful tour of Hagia Sophia and then the following day at the Archaeological Museum. We skipped the lines and then enjoyed an hour of interest and insights. The best thing about Osman is that he delivers the right amount of information before moving onto another highlight. If you want to hear more, he will gladly provide. Osman does not give you an endless list of facts and dates. Instead, Osman opens your eyes to what is in front of you and what is hidden. And he does this in an entertaining and engaing way. Well worth the reasonable cost.

Avoid at any cost - Please avoid them if possible. My Tour was booked 1 month in advance. A day before tour when I call up - they mention it cancelled due to bad weather. I am sitting in Istabul with no inkling of bad weather- hence was surprised by the reason for cancellation. Also they mention that refund will be provided after 14 days. I think Get your Guide has found a new business model of making money out of interest.
