We had a three-night stopover in Istanbul and were looking for tours for two of the days we were there. We found Kagan and Lale Kosagan [email protected] in Rick’s book on Istanbul. We set up a two-day tour and had the best time . lale was our tour guide and provide not just the regular tours of the main events in Istanbul, but used her local contacts to give us a behind the scenes look at carpets and manufacturing allowing my wife to participate in making a silk carpet. She recommended the great spots for lunch and joined us as we took in the sights. They were able to make excellent recommendations on hotels. Thanks, Rick, for a great recommendation!

If true, I suspect this post survives.
