"Finding the Perfect Turkish Carpet in Istanbul Selecting the perfect Turkish carpet or kilim can be like finding the perfect partner—there are plenty to choose from, and patience is often required. With this in mind, you need a carpet seller who will listen to your needs, appreciate your tastes, and avoid pressuring you to choose the wrong one. Noah’s Ark Carpets in Sultanahmet are the sellers I trust. Yusuf and Hamza make the whole buying experience hassle-free and fun and because of this, I’ve bought three carpets from them for myself and for friends in Australia . Noah's Ark can also arrange door to door international post if you’re concerned about the weight of your luggage. The store is recommended by National Geographic Traveler and Vogue (so don’t just take my word for it). Drop in and see the guys and enjoy a glass of çay while browsing their beautiful collection of carpets and kilims from Turkey and surrounding countries. Before leaving, ask to see their magic flying carpet—it will impress."
Wonderful carpet shoppe with options for all price points. Yusuf, the owner speaks English and is happy to explain styles/techniques. He has some small rugs and ones for the floor or wall as well as bags made from antique pieces. Super experience! I learned a lot and will return.

For the very best selection of authentic Turkish carpets and ceramics, pay a visit to Noah's Ark. Brothers Hamza and Yousuf are very knowledgeable and above all, extremely honest. Neighboring shops speak very highly of their business ethics and in fact recommend Noah's Ark. We have been buying carpets from Noah's Ark since 2009......picture. We just returned from Istanbul after buying 2, two fabulous tribal carpets.

Both Esat and Ali, brothers and owners of Noah's Ark, are welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful. I went in to ask if they could fix a carpet I had purchased elsewhere, and they were happy to mend the unraveling. They speak English well and have been in the carpet business for about 25 years. I have not purchased a carpet from this venue but plan on doing so in the near future, as mutual friends have purchased from and find them trustworthy and reliable.

I had a great experience!! Ali was highly knowledgeable and considerate. I bought a kilim that I love. The price was reasonable and the discussion was without pressure. Tea was lovely too. I couldn't recommend Noah's Ark more!
