Guida perfetta per Istambul
Servizio più che perfetto! La guida ci ha aspettato all’uscita del Porto Galata, e poi con i mezzi abbiamo raggiunto il centro e gli obiettivi che volevamo visitare! Persona molto preparata e affidabile, Metehan ci ha deliziato per l intero giorno con tante storie, e con i passaggi nei monumenti più importanti di Istambul! Il pranzo tipico, la spiegazione delle pietanze, il giro nel gran bazar e il mercato delle spezie hanno reso la nostra giornata perfetta! Peccato per il tempo brutto e il freddo! Ci rifaremo alla prossima, sempre insieme a Ulisse viaggi!
Guida in italiano per una bella giornata a Istanbul
Abbiamo scelto una guida che parlava italiano, Yldiriim è stato una persona disponibile è ci ha guidato in tutti le visite con professionalità avendo cura nei dettagli consigliandoci anche su cose da vedere per i giorni successivi. Alla fine della giornata il commento di tutte persone che ha guidato è stato positivo. Grazie Yildirilm per la splendida esperienza.

The added value of our fantastic guide
We have just returned from a trip to Istanbul and our guide took us to discover the districts of Üsküdar, Kuzguncuk and Kadıköy. She was exceptional: she not only explained the current reality of the city and the lifestyle of its inhabitants, but also accompanied us on a real gastronomic journey, allowing us to appreciate Istanbul from an authentic and different point of view than usual.
FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE
I found this contact by chance and booked a guided tour of the city for me and my friends with our teenage children who usually do not hold these things so much... the boys were enchanted by the stories of Mete, who knew how to take them immediately! He told us and took us to visit the city, had lunch with us and had the patience to advise and help us during our shopping... for the whole day: super!!
Magic Istanbul
We visited the city with a small group of nine people, very heterogeneous, composed of children and adults. The guide, Rubil, was very kind and guided us patiently, making us discover some of the city's treasures, some very picturesque. In addition to accompanying us on visits and telling us the history of the country, we provided excellent culinary advice allowing us to taste the delicious local cuisine, certainly avoiding the most touristic places. His suggestions about buying in the bazaar also proved very valuable. Too bad the holiday lasted only four days. Highly recommended!
Istanbul in the heart
Group of 21 friends. Visiting Istanbul was really nice. The 8-hour tour of Sultanahmet with Marko was an unforgettable experience. A passionate guide, with great culture and able to transport you back in time. Its origins, Italian and Turkish, have dispelled all doubt, always ready to make comparisons between the two cultures, religions, customs and customs have given it the extra touch. Thank you Marko Istanbul will remain in our hearts.
Excellent guided tour
Group of 10 adults in Istanbul x the first time... Visit to Sultanahmet and the main monuments accompanied by Kamil, a trained, professional and empathetic guide who told us and explained in impeccable Italian the history of Istanbul, the traditions, customs and traditions of a unique city and that we will definitely return to visit. I recommend contacting this group x organize a tour in this fantastic city.
A Day with Kamill by Ulysses Istanbul
We booked a private tour , small group of 4 people , Blue Mosque , Hagia Sophia , Topkapi Palace , Cistern Basilica , Suleymaniye Mosque . Kamill has been a valuable guide , an excellent cicero , a connoisseur of customs and traditions , empathetic and professional . We spent the whole day with him and I must say it was the right choice. Recommended absolutely.
Not only Bazaar!!
Six friends travelling to Istanbul 5 days. In a city of 16 mil inhabitants it was unthinkable to do everything yourself!! You would have seen the main attractions risking losing precious time in the queues and waiting at the entrances. We also wanted to visit “other” , a bit outside the standard circuits.We contacted Ulysses Istanbul and planned with Yildirim an immediate feeling on how to manage our trip.We had his punctual and complete assistance in excellent Italian during two days of private visit. He also introduced us to neighborhoods where it was evident that we were almost the only tourists present. We enjoyed an exquisite reception from local merchants and restaurateurs and became aware of many small curiosities that an absurd city like Istanbul can offer. We have discovered how coexistence between peoples and religions and customs can be possible. We certainly would not have succeeded alone.Yildirim was just fantastic.Experience definitely positive and advisable.
A city that kidnaps and enchants you
With a group of 10 friends we organized a trip to Istanbul and we thought to discover it with the help of a guide so we met Marko who immediately showed himself as the ideal guide for those who wanted, like us, to enter the essence of the beautiful city trying to understand its many facets.In addition to having historical and cultural skills he took us inside a world made of customs and curiosity demonstrating competence, clarity, sympathy and.... patience.Great Marko
They ghosted us
I contacted them 1 month before departure. They let us wait until monday before the departure because they don't know if they had enough people.
I asked again yesterday if there was any news and no answers (but they have read my message on whatsapp!). So, today I'm starting my trip to Istanbul, but I'm not getting the tour with them even if they write me back. I cannot be so unsure of my desired guided tour until the departure day!!!

Risposta da Ulisse Istanbul - Visite guidate italiano a Istanbul
2025.12.21
Sempre ma sempre dico ai miei colleghi che io sono fortunato a lavorare con i nostri gruppi tutti italiani, sempre gentili, sempre allegri e cosi passiamo anche bel tempo in una citta' cosi affollata e cosi frenetica. Ma peccato che, a volte, direi di raro, capitano persone che hanno cattiva intenzione.
A questa persona che scrive qui senza vergogna avevamo già risposto che il tour parte appena si forma un gruppo. Noi organizziamo tour di gruppo per agevolare/ridurre il costo delle visite guidate, perché gia' i costi dei musei sono altissimi ad Istanbul. I partecipanti a volte prenotano mesi fa ed a volte qualche giorno prima della loro partenza e cosi formiamo i nostri gruppi.
Controllando i messaggi scambiati con questa persona, avevamo già risposto ben 5 giorni prima che "nelle loro date non si é formato un gruppo" ed avevo anche augurato loro buona vacanza senza avere un ringrazimento. Oltretutto non avevamo nemmeno dato conferma a questa persona, perché non si é formato un gruppo nelle loro date.
Noi, quando lavoriamo, quando facciamo tour con i nostri gruppi, cerchiamo di fare sempre il nostro meglio.
È stato così fino ad ora e continuerà così da ora in poi.

The city of a thousand wonderful shades that you carry in your heart forever. Worth coming back again
Yildirim , a very knowledgeable and experienced guide , accompanied us ( 8 friends) for two full days to discover the wonderful Istanbul , both in the European and Asian parts . With his precious help we also visited less touristic but beautiful realities that should be absolutely known. He is very helpful and, with his explanations and stories, you can immerse yourself in history and everyday life. We would never have been able to see and know so much about Istanbul in such a short time without him. I highly recommend it.

Live a city! Don't see her!
THANK YOU MARKO – Istanbul Ulysses GuideVisiting Istanbul with Marko was an unforgettable experience. His passion for the history and culture of this extraordinary city can be felt in every word: he does not just describe monuments and places, but makes them relive before your eyes as in a film. Tell names, dates, events and curiosities with infectious precision and enthusiasm, turning every explanation into a real time travel.Al Topkapi, for example, managed to make us imagine the life of the palace, the motivations and anxieties of the sultans, the political decisions and the human dramas that unfolded behind those walls. His ability to connect historical facts to the emotions of the time makes everything clearer and more compelling.In addition to his great expertise, Marko stands out for his kindness, professionalism and helpfulness. He is always ready to answer every question calmly and precisely, making every visitor feel welcomed and involved.A guide like few others: passionate, cultured and able to transmit authentic love for the city. Thanks to him, Istanbul was not just a visit, but an experience that will remain in the heart.
