Hello, this is Mustafa, your guide for the interesting tour.
Thank you for booking our tour, and welcome to Istanbul. I hope you will enjoy your visit. I will be wearing my license around my neck, holding a YELLOW UMBRELLA that says WALKYTALKY on or a small stick with a small YELLOW flag under the Çemberlitaş Column. If you need any transfer or bath or anything, l can also ask my friends so that you can get a better deal. I always believe that the reliable information is the one that is double-checked :). Enjoy your time here. I am looking forward to seeing you on my tour. Thank you so much for choosing me

Note: Free tours do not have a set price; instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from 15 EURO (600 Turkish Lira) to 50 EURO, depending on satisfaction with the tour).
How can the tour be free?
Our concept is simple — there is no set price. Instead, you tip your guide at the end of the tour whatever amount feels right to you. Typically, guests give between $10 to €50, depending on their satisfaction and budget.
