    Hi Gamze!

    We just wanted to reach out and say thank you so much for arranging our Old City Tour today. Mev was the best and nicest guide ever and we had such an amazing time. She took us all over sultanhamet and showed us everything on the tour plus many other little details and fun things about Istanbul and Turkish life & customs!!

    I don\'t know if it\'s possible, but if it is we would sure love to have her as our guide on the Bosphorus tour as well....

    Thank you again for everything. We are so glad we found you to help us!

    Blythe & Louise
