Serif, I have traveled the world and you are the best tour guide I ever had. You always provide great information, unique details, and in a warm and friendly style. I hope to visit Turkey again one day. Keep up the wonderful programs! This one provided great memories.
i know Im randomly asking but does anybody know of a way to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my password. I appreciate any help you can give me.
I didn't understand how the time passed quickly, almost one hour. I learned many things about AyaSofia, amazing presentation, thank you Şerif. Looking forward to hear new online tours. Thank you...
Fascinating. The whole history of this building is truly amazing. The fact that the central dome fell once and was restored to a even stronger one with more windows is incredible
Wonderful tour, great story telling genre with calming music background. Thank you so much for this great presentation. You’re the master of tour guides 👍
I am returning from a 7 day trip to istanbul and Hagia Sofia was one of the highlights of my visit. So thank you for this video. I think it is time to redo this in 4k and more details.
Wow! Even an endorsement from Glee the Cat!! That's a big deal! 😁 This was genuinely wonderful, thank you so much!! My favorite way to travel during the pandemic.
Hi Serif it was wonderful to enjoy your virtual tour of the Hagia Sophia together with you once again. Always the most professional and knowledgeable tour leader. Our family look most forward to joining you once again in Turkey. kindest regards Kathi Kotzen, Cape Town South Africa
Şerif Bey harika bir video olmuş ağzınıza sağlık. Yorumlardan da anlıyorum ki diğer ülkelerden birçok insana ulaşmışsınız. Videoların devamını hevesle bekliyoruz. Teşekkür ederiz.
Honestly. This virtual tour had so many information. Telling stories of the mosaic art while showcasing the architecture is amazing. Underrated video. Never visited Turkey thanks to the wonderful pandemic but I really want to. Thanks for the video

Şerif, you present these wonderful buildings with such empathy and humanity- thank you. I do hope that the coexistence of religions that you so rightly praise still maintains today. I do not think Allah or God would be upset by different holy images, and it is an indication of expansive generosity and broadmindedness to permit that coexistence, as well as being a sign of civilised cultural sensitivity.
This gentleman is like a favorite teacher he makes it easy and enjoyable to digest large amounts of information. Thank you thank you very much and keep up the good work
Sorry about that I had to go cook dinner real quick what I was going to say was my mother would be upset if I didn't thank you for the considerate comments you made to me thank you very much you're a very kind man
Thank you so much for this great tour,I was very pleased to listen to your narration,I can do it over and over again.Looking forward to another one great tour with you! Çok teşekkür ederim!
I have visited this year in january, all mosaics are covered except for the one in the entrance. Even the ones in the dome have been covered with cloth but no work is being done. Hagia Sophia is open 24 hours for worship, but museum is closed because of restorations. It is amazing and inspiring, even moving though. I am very thankful for this excellent quality video, allowing me to see what I couldn't in spite of having visitied it 7 times during january, 2022. Thank you-best guide ever, great amazing well informed content.
Just visited Hagia Sophia and got really curious on its history. Then i found this video on a youtube, really insightful! Thank you for the great video.
My wife I were participants of your Grand Circle Turkey Tour in 2013. We still remember the tour as one of the best and you as one of the most excellent tour directors. This presentation surely brought back lots of wonderful memories of our time in your country. Now that we are currently unable to travel because of the Covid-19 virus we wanted to be sure that you knew how much we appreciated the ability to relive our trip through your virtual tour. We look forward to future presentations. Perhaps, someday, we can return to Turkey. Stay healthy.
As a tour guide, I enjoyed a very nice explanation with some perfect quality scenes. Thank you Şerif, and thanks again for reminding me how much I've missed my job ...
A very beautiful video of the Ayasofya. The more one looks at its beautiful interiors, the more one is fascinated by and attracted to it's glories !!! 🌹
I am so happy that this video exists, to preserve the TRUE experience of visiting Hağia Sofya. Currently, if you visit the monument, the floors are covered in garish carpeting and most of the christian mosaic is covered by draped curtains, and as far I know you can no longer access the upper floor, ever since it was re-purposed as a mosque in 2020. I am endlessly happy and thankful that I got to visit before this took place.
A great video. Several more advertising notices than perhaps was needed to sponsor the host, but still enjoyable and shared details I haven’t heard before. Many thanks for posting!
Serif bey, Very wonderful tour, thaaank you sooo much for this wonderful & insightful virtual tour, such a great ideas. You are the master of tour guides. I will share your channel to my subscribers, to more people. I love it. look forward to watching your next videos.

Thank you very much Linda, I am so glad. I hope we overcome this lockdown period and start traveling again. See you.
Very good virtual tour. Would you please this video translate into Indonesia language. Thank you

What a wonderful tour!
I just came back from Turkey at the end of August. Istanbul was fabulous. Unfortunately I became sick with Covid
I hope you have recovered by now.
You are soooooo good at this! There are countless history videos on TH-cam, but your knowledge, passion and great presentation skill stands out.
Thank you soooo much for your encouraging comment:)

This was a wonderful and informative tour of one of the most beautiful buildings in the entire world..
Thanks Dennis. Great.
