A unforgettable experience, hosted by the experienced and well informed Fethi. This must rank as one of travel’s great experiences, and Fethi’s offbeat approach adds huge dimension to an already amazing city, taken from the perspective of daily life in the city, far from the tourist crush of the SultanAhmet. For those looking for something different while in Istanbul, this is a must do.

We kicked off our two weeks in Istanbul with this day-long tour and it was incredible. You get a sense of the real Istanbul and see things beyond the tourist attractions.

In August of 2019 my wife and I spent a week in Old Istanbul while staying at the Yasmak Sultan Hotel (highly recommended. ). Via the hotel the Concierge, he arranged a one on one daytime boat tour of the Bospherus Strait with a tour guide named Musaffa. The cost of this tour with the guide included was $120.00 (plus $50 T/L tip) Canadian dollars.for both of us and well worth every cent.
Musaffa was friendly, and incredibly well versed on the many many structures that sit on both sides of the Bospherus Strait. I took many many photographs on this tour as you can see in my photo section of this review. The tour was very interesting, educational and thoroughly enjoyable. .
The reason for the delay of my posting of this review was due to a lengthy illness that I had which I am now over that and I apologizes the delay.

I was provided a 4 star hotel in a very reasonable price. Very nice room and breakfast. Other tours including Dhow Cruise, Bhurj Khalifa, Aquarium and Miracle Garden were all very well arranged.

As a result of my wife having taken this tour some 3 - 4 years ago, and having thoroughly enjoyed it, we specifically made a day stopover in Istanbul at the end of April, 2018, to take the day-long Other Tour.
I might add that we had each already visited Istanbul 3 - 4 times.Therefore, our main, and only, reason for returning was for me to experience this tour.
We made arrangements, by email with Fethi, the Other Tour operator/owner, many months in advance, to do the tour on Sunday, April 29th, 2018. On Friday night, April 27th, we communicated with Fethi, by telephone, to confirm the tour for the 29th. He did confirm it, and told us to be in the lobby of our hotel at 9:00 A.M. SHARP on Sunday morning, for the guide to pick us up.
We waited in the lobby of our hotel from 8:50 A.M.until 9:20 A.M.Not only did no one come to get us, but also no one called --- even though Fethi had our telephone number, and the hotel`s telephone number as well. When we had the hotel concierge call Fethi, we learned that the tour had been cancelled because the guide, Fethi`s brother, was ill.
To be fair, it is possible that his brother was ill. However, our suspicion is that they cancelled because doing a tour with only two people may not have been worth their time.
Be that as it may, we were extremely upset and disappointed. Moreover, to have not let us know in advance was very unprofessional and unacceptable.
As a result, we must state that we cannot recommend this tour.

В августе 2016 года посетили остров Бююкада. Добраться просто: на трамвае Т1 до конечной, купить билеты (10 лари на 1чел) на паром. На пароме 1,5 часа и мы на Бююкаде. Ехали ради моря, поэтому пляж слегка разочаровал. Ожидали, что пляж будет по типу таиландских с белыми песками, оказалось камни и волны. Но вода чистая, гораздо лучше чем на городском пляже. Посетить надо обязательно.

В мае 2018 года находясь в Стамбуле я решила посетить один из Принцевых остров - самый большой остров Бююкада. Поездка на пароме с азиатской части заняла 30 минут.На острове очень много туристов.Основные средства передвижения это конные повозки,велосипед или пешком. Чтобы больше посмотреть я взяла велосипед -15 лир на 2 часа.На острове несколько монастырей . мечеть,дом где жил Троцкий,красивые виллы богатых турков.Но местность холмистая и на велосипеде быстро устаешь.Остров красивый,зеленый,много цветов.Есть чистые пляжи ,Возле пристани много рыбных ресторанчиков с морскими деликатесами.Самое вкусное мороженое именно на этом острове. Я очень прекрасно провела здесь день.Вообщем на острове можно очень хорошо провести время. Можно остаться на несколько дней,есть не плохие отели.Паромы отходят каждый час

We booked The Other Tour because we were sick of boring walking tours which point out buildings and tell you dates, and which generally lack in personality. We wanted an experience that actually gave us an insight into the current culture, way of life and political climate of the place (something which is particularly interesting in Turkey at the moment, of course).
We weren't too sure whether to spend the money and worked out whether we could do a similar trip ourselves for cheaper. After figuring out that with the cost of meals/hammam/snacks/travel/boat trip etc. it'd be pretty much the same price, we were SO glad we chose to book The Other Tour. Fethi's company felt natural to the point where we totally forgot that we were actually paying for his time. It just felt like we were meeting with an old friend we hadn't seen in a while. We got a feel for different parts of the city which we might not have come across otherwise, and we had some great experiences that we won't ever forget.
As quite a few people have said before me, please don't take this tour if you would class yourself as a remotely easily offended person :) and don't book it if you just want to see the big tourist sights! You can easily do that yourself a different day.

This is the perfect tour for anyone with an open mind and desire to see and experience something beyond what's in your guidebook. It certainly lives up to its name - Fethi's passion for his home town is contagious, and not dampened by a healthy dose of irreverence. Embrace this and you will undoubtedly enjoy yourself - it's an enlightening and unique way to experience Istanbul

The information on The Other Tour website gives you information about the cost and itinerary. If you're looking for information on hotels, transfers, etc, for Istanbul, I'd suggest perusing a good guidebook and then reviewing places you're thinking of on Tripadvisor. That worked well for me.

If you like to see more of how the people live this is a great tour. They do tailor the tour to the group, and apparently tour is not box cutter each one is a bit different. There is a lot of walking, up stairs, down stairs the etc. but not difficult. The tour goes from 9 in the morning until 11:00 at night, in our case midnight. If you are the type of person that likes to get involved, engaged you will enjoy the tour. You will not be seeing any of the traditional tourist spots, museums, etc. you will see how they live in the city our tour ,involved seeing the rich, poor and middle class neighbourhoods. The lunch meal with his Mom which is prepared by his Mom is outstanding. The tour guides are outstanding, engaging, funny, informative. If you can walk and are open minded I say go for it.
