This tour is an absolute must if you are new to Turkish food, as we were. Doing it early in our trip gave us the opportunity to make good choices in food for the rest of our stay. Ozge, our guide, introduced us to many new and delicious foods in Kerikoy and Kadakoy, located respectively on the European and Asia sides of Istanbul. We would never have experienced such a variety of local specialties on our own. The culinary aspect of our trip was so much better because we took this tour with Ozge.

Worth every penny!
Cumali was an amazing guide and the tour was a highlight of my trip! We had a small group (myself a family of three) which was a perfect size. Pickup at the meeting spot was easy and clear and Cumali carried an easy to spot umbrella so we never got lost in the crowds. Our tour crossed the two continents and featured restaurants and food carts I never would have found myself. A great way to spend my last night in the city!

Great introduction to Istanbul
This was our first day in Istanbul. It is HUGE - so it was so nice to get a lay of the land from Cumali. He was super informative and very fun. I highly recommend this tour and Cumali. - you won't regret it. Oh - and do not eat before you go - there is a lot of food!

Very good food tour
Great idea to take this tour that includes Asia and Europe sides. All the food was good and the guide was friendly and very helpful. We all enjoyed (family with 2 teenagers) the walk, the food and the boat trip.

Unique eats with friendly guide!
Atahan was a great host! Very knowledgeable about Turkish food & history. We had a really nice time talking to him - felt like we were hanging out with a friend by the end. He also helped us get Tram tickets and which line to take.

A city break enjoying the culture, food and people.
Lots of good quality fresh food at very reasonable prices. Not focusing on an alcohol culture. Lots to see and do.

Maybe the best food tour we've taken (of 10)
Burak was an incredible guide. Street foods, great variety, introduction to the lifestyle of Turkish commuters, background on the dishes, advice on using the ferries, plus much info about life in Istanbul, Turkish culture, and more.

Great Food Tour
My friend and I booked the private food tour so we could move at our own pace without holding up a group. We really enjoyed the tour. We had a great variety of food. We enjoyed seeing the Asian side of Istanbul with a guide and trying everything from a lettuce wrap (great start on European side) to fish to pickle juice to great baclava.

BOOK THIS FOOD TOUR
Salih was the absolute best tour guide I’ve ever come across. He was super knowledgeable and friendly and took us to some amazing off the radar local food places. We had been in Istanbul for a few days before this food tour and felt that we ate the same things almost every time so Salih did a fantastic job showing us some awesome new choices! Would definitely recommend.
