We had a half day tour with Cem and it was great. He is full of knowledge about İstanbul. He also helped us to change money and we tried some local food together. Amazing. Ask for Cem!

Emir Sagir gave us the most amazing tour - it was interesting and comprehensive. He is a very engaging and thoughtful person with interesting perspectives. The pace was just right. I would definitely recommend him as a tour guide and would definitely use his services for future visits.
We visited so many remarkable Mosques and Palaces. We visited the underground Waterway. .

Emir Sagir of the tour group Viva Turquia Travel was an awesome tour guide, for two days. He was a lovely person, very informative, and sensitive to our needs. Having the tour with Emir Sagir contributed greatly to my wonderful trip to Istanbul. He deserves the highest praise and thanks. Judy Glantzman, Chatham, New York
