A trip to Turkey

Jeff,
I am headed to Istanbul & the Greek Isles for vacation in late June. I happened to be talking with Rebecca who indicated that you guys had just gotten back from Istanbul for a wedding & that you have a brother that lives there. We will be in Istanbul for only 3 days & want to make the best use of time possible. I think that Rebecca mentioned that you knew of a private guide that we might be able to book for full or half days. I would love to do that & wondered if you might have the name & phone number of the guide. Also, I would love to hear your thoughts on what there is to do & if you have any restaurant recomendations. We are staying at the same hotel that you & Rebecca just stayed at & it will be the first time in Istanbul for both of us. Jeff, thanks in advance for your insight & help!!!
