    Our guide Yusuf was very knowledgeable, a native of Urfa. We had an amazing day at GobekliTepe and the surrounding sites. It was a long day with the flights, tours and car rides from Istanbul, but one we would do again!! Our only criticism was that although Yusuf was exceptionally knowledgeable, he was a bit long winded, and couldn’t walk and talk, we would stop to be educated. That made it difficult to stay on schedule and feel like we could fit it all in without being too stressed. That being said he was very well known in the city and this familiarity made us very comfortable walking among the locals and the busy areas.
