Nos ha encantado el tour de las mezquitas. Mesut es un guía estupendo que explica todo con mucha claridad. Además fue muy amable porque nos ayudó para llegar a tiempo a otro tour de civitatis. Sin él no hubiese sido posible. Las mezquitas son una maravilla que uno no se puede perder en Estambul Translate this opinion into English.

We loved the mosque tour. Mesut is a wonderful guide who explains everything very clearly. He was also very kind, helping us get to another CiVitatis tour on time. It wouldn't have been possible without him. The mosques are a marvel that you can't miss in Istanbul. Opinion translated. Show original.

Tour con una guía fantástica (Julia) que nos explicó en detalle y respondió a todas nuestras dudas además de invitarnos a un postre exquisito. A mejorar quizás que duró media hora menos de lo indicado y echamos en falta alguna explicación de los mausoleos, pero aún así muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was led by a fantastic guide (Julia), who explained everything in detail and answered all our questions, as well as treating us to a delicious dessert. Perhaps we could improve it because it lasted half an hour less than indicated, and we missed some explanations about the mausoleums, but it's still highly recommended. Opinion translated.

Muy bien la visita realizada con Nur esta mañana. Es verdad que nos hemos ido un poco antes porque nosotros ya visitamos anteriormente la mezquita de Sulleiman el Grande, pero la verdad es Nur ha estado muy atenta en todo momento de nuestras inquietudes y ha compartido todo su conocimiento con nosotros Gracias Nur. Guardaremos buen recuerdo de nuestra visita a Estambul Translate this opinion into English.

The visit with Nur this morning was very good. It's true that we left a little early because we had previously visited the Suleiman the Great Mosque, but the truth is that Nur was very attentive to our concerns and shared all her knowledge with us. Thank you, Nur. We will cherish our visit to Istanbul. Opinion translated. Show original.

Çinar es una gran guía que ha hecho nuestra visita muy especial. Además de la historia de las mezquitas nos ha sorprendido con muchos detalles que nos ha contado de Estambul. Y ya hemos probado varios sitios de comida casera turca que nos ha recomendado, y ha sido todo un acierto. Muy profesional y muy atenta con nosotros. Un doce sobre diez para ella!!! Gracias, Çinar. Translate this opinion into English.

Çinar is a great guide who made our visit very special. In addition to the history of the mosques, she surprised us with many details she shared about Istanbul. And we've already tried several places she recommended for homemade Turkish food, and it was a great success. She's very professional and attentive to us. 12 out of 10 for her!!! Thank you, Çinar.

Las 3 mezquitas que vimos eran muy bonitas, toda la excursión es andando pero en el único tramo algo más largo de 10 minutos andando se hace una parada para tomar un te. El tour es un 10 y Ferhat nos contó mucha historia sobre los 3 lugares se nota que sabe y es muy simpático. Translate this opinion into English.

The three mosques we saw were very beautiful. The entire tour is on foot, but during the only stretch that's longer than 10 minutes, there's a stop for tea. The tour is a 10/10, and Ferhat told us a lot of history about the three sites. He's clearly knowledgeable and very friendly. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fue para nosotras una experiencia magnífica, entrar a la magia de Estambul, sus mezquitas, sus calles, su gente. Nuestro guía, Ferhat Cirpan, fue el mejor, hablaba perfectamente el español, sus explicaciones muy claras, con mucho conocimiento y sobre todo, transmitiéndonos su manera de ver su ciudad. Lo recomendaría 100%. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a magnificent experience for us, immersing ourselves in the magic of Istanbul: its mosques, its streets, its people. Our guide, Ferhat Cirpan, was the best.

Un tour imprescindible. Se nota que nuestra guía Nur conoce a la perfección la ciudad. No sólo nos habló de las mezquitas sino de cómo visitar lo más importante de la ciudad, sus constumbres y su forma de vida. Al ser un grupo reducido, pudo responder a todas nuestras preguntas y pudimos oír perfectamente todas las explicaciones. Gracias Nur. Translate this opinion into English.

A must-do tour. It's clear our guide, Nur, knows the city perfectly. She not only told us about the mosques but also how to visit the city's most important sites, its customs, and its way of life. Since we were a small group, she was able to answer all our questions, and we were able to hear all the explanations perfectly. Thank you, Nur. Opinion translated. Show original.

Tuor muito explicativo. Eu gosto de conhecer esses monumentos sabendo os significados dos detalhes porque só entrar nos edifícios não faz sentido para mim. Recomendo muito para os brasileiros. Hakan, é calmo e explica com detalhes além de dar dicas sobre os lugares que passamos na rua. Imperdível. Translate this opinion into English.

Very informative tour. I like to visit these monuments knowing the meaning of the details because just going inside the buildings doesn't make sense to me. I highly recommend it to Brazilians. Hakan is calm and explains in detail, as well as giving tips about the places we pass on the street. Unmissable. Opinion translated. Show original.

La guía del Tour por las Mezquitas fue excepcional, muy preparada y eficaz en la operación. Nos llevó a las distintas mezquitas con soltura y nos explicó bien todos los detalles. La mezquita de Suleimán queda muy retirada y el retorno a Sultanamet fue pesado, pero es inevitable. Buen Tour. Gracias. Translate this opinion into English.

The Mosque Tour guide was exceptional, very knowledgeable and efficient. She led us to the different mosques with ease and explained every detail well. The Suleiman Mosque is quite remote, and the return to Sultanahmet was difficult, but unavoidable. Enjoyed the tour. Thank you. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy buen guía, ha explicado mucho y bien, y hemos aprovechado muy bien el tiempo. Quizás el precio de la actividad es excesivo, ya qie la única mezquita que tiene coste es la de Santa Sofía. Las demás no necesitan tickets, y de las colas tampoco te libras. Translate this opinion into English.

A very good guide, he explained a lot and explained everything well, and we made the most of our time. Perhaps the price of the activity is excessive, since the only mosque that costs money is Hagia Sophia. The others don't require tickets, and you don't have to wait in line either.

Nos encantó este tour y aún más nuestra guia Nurseda, que fue encantadora y nos trasmitió la información de una forma que hizo que todos estuviéramos sin pestañear, hablaba un magnífico Castellano y además tuvo el detalle de invitarnos a tomar algo en un Sturbucks para reponer un poco de energía. En definitiva un tour maravilloso en una increíble Estambul. Translate this opinion into English.

We loved this tour, and even more so our guide, Nurseda, who was charming and conveyed the information in a way that kept everyone's attention on their toes.

Impresdcindibles. Nuestra guía, Çinar, fantástica. Santa Sofía yo lo había visitado antes de que decidieran que los turistas solo pueden visitar el piso alto, y la impresión es totalmente diferente. Antes era mucho más espectacular, pero tampoco se podían ver los mosaicos que ahora se ven arriba. En cualquier caso, merece la pena visitarlo. La Mezquita Azul es impresionante, preciosa, y una visita esencial. La Mezquita de Suleimán, impactante también. Insisto en que la guía, Çinar, buenísim Translate this opinion into English.

Essentials. Our guide, Çinar, was fantastic. I had visited Hagia Sophia before they decided that tourists could only visit the upper floor, and the impression is totally different. It used to be much more spectacular, but you still couldn't see the mosaics you can see above now. In any case, it's worth a visit. The Blue Mosque is impressive, beautiful, and an essential visit. The Suleiman Mosque is also striking. I insist that the guide, Çinar, is excellent. Opinion translated. Show original.

La guida era culturalmente preparata, per esse turca un buon italiano, ma lentezza e mancanza di intraprendenza in alcune situazioni: prezzo troppo elevato per la prestazione fornita e la più bella resta la Moschea Blu il cui accesso tra l'altro è gratuito.

Vi ringraziamo molto per il feedback. Lo trasmetteremo al fornitore in modo che possa tenerne conto e migliorare il servizio dove possibile.

El tour por las mezquitas estuvo perfectamente organizado. Nuestra guía, Çinar Yavuz, fue excelente: divertida, precisa y con explicaciones súper claras. Respondió todas nuestras consultas y cumplimos con el recorrido sin esperas. Nos dio recomendaciones locales sobre lugares para visitar y comida callejera imperdible. Probamos un baklava de un sitio no turístico, ¡delicioso! Como extra, hizo un breve recorrido por el Gran Bazar, suficiente para conocerlo. ¡No se lo pierdan! ¡Super recomendado!

The mosque tour was perfectly organized. Our guide, Çinar Yavuz, was excellent: fun, concise, and super-clear. She answered all our questions, and we completed the tour without any wait time. She gave us local recommendations on places to visit and must-see street food. We tried baklava from a non-touristy spot—delicious! As a bonus, she gave us a brief tour of the Grand Bazaar, enough to get a feel for it. Don't miss it! Highly recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.

Quien haya diseñado la actividad no ha tenido en cuenta, que el tour de las Mezquitas incluía la visita a la de Soleiman, al igual que la actividad que realizamos ayer de la visita al Barrio Otomano y Galata. El guía turístico muy bien, un apasionado de la historia, vive su trabajo con mucho entusiasmo Translate this opinion into English.

Whoever designed the activity did not take into account that the tour of the Mosques included a visit to the Soleiman Mosque, just like the activity we did yesterday, which included a visit to the Ottoman Quarter and Galata.

Hermosas las mezquitas visitadas bajo la dirección de la Guía Cinar, ella habla muy bien español.
