Mohammet is a terrific guide. My husband and I enjoyed his tour of Hagia Sophia. He speaks beautiful English and he really knows his stuff.

Mohammad was an absolutely AMAZING tour guide for our family at the Hagia Sophia. We learned so much from him about history, religion, philosophy, and more. We would 100% use Mohammad again if we ever return to the beautiful city of Istanbul. Thank you a Septillion times, Mohammad!
