Middag Foodie Trail in Istanbul





Beschrijving
De 4 uur durende Afternoon Foodie Trail van SGA Travel in Istanbul neemt je mee naar het culinaire hart van de stad, waar geschiedenis en streetfood worden gecombineerd. Begin bij de levendige Mısır Çarşısı (specerijenmarkt), waar je traditionele Turkse lokum proeft en aromatische kruidenkraampjes verkent. Steek de Galatabrug over naar Karaköy, waar lokale verkopers specialiteiten serveren zoals kokoreç (gegrilde lamsdarmen) en midye dolma (gevulde mosselen). Geniet bij Mandabatmaz van dikke Turkse koffie, gecombineerd met knapperige içli köfte (gevulde gehaktballen). De reis gaat verder langs de bruisende Istiklal Caddesi, waar je de beroemde islak-hamburger probeert en als dessert geniet van stroperige baklava en meer Turkse lekkernijen. Deze tour biedt een unieke manier om kennis te maken met de streetfoodcultuur van Istanbul, waarbij je gerechten proeft die zijn bereid door verkopers die hun vak al generaties lang hebben verfijnd, wat een authentieke culinaire ervaring oplevert.

Furkan was a wonderful guide to Istanbul’s food treasures. He was great about asking us our likes/dislikes and adjusting accordingly. We sampled borek (and he took us to a beautiful mosque courtyard to eat our snack away from the bustle of the alleyways). He brought us to a rooftop terrace for tea and let us try our hand at making gozleme. He also took us to a stall that makes fish wraps—one of his personal favorites and not something we’d have found on our own. The foods were included in the price of the tour and it felt like a great deal.
It is a great experience. Our guide, Kamil was very knowledgeable, and went at our own pace. He was very knowledgeable, and he did not push us to anything. Also, we felt very safe with him walking through some of the busier Parts. When we stopped at certain points to eat, he explained everything that we were eating, and How it was prepared..
The tour was perfect. Our family had a great time in Istanbul with our guide Alpe showing us many different sites and providing great information. We tried amazing food and learned a lot about the culture. Then our family went to cappadocia and our guide Büsra did an amazing job showing us the sites there. Both guides had an amazing love to the country and culture. We highly recommend the tour to everyone and had a wonderful time.
Sila was absolutely wonderful. It was so much more than just a foodie walk. She obviously loves Istanbul and was willing to share so much information about history and other sites to see. A must when you are in Istanbul.
My wife and I had a wonderful first visit to Istanbul and Cappadocia, organized by SGA Travel. It was a very exclusive experience. Very well planned, with good hotel selections, professional and very knowledgeable tour guides and exclusive transportation to and from the hotels. We highly recommend SGA for any coupe planning to travel to Turkey.
I had the pleasure of doing a private foodtour with Sıla. Not only is she very knowledgeable about Istanbul, the history of the city and Turkey in general. She also made sure I had a very enjoyable afternoon/evening with delicious food and all around good company. Highly recommended!
Great to see that you enjoyed your time with us!
Eser was our tour guide. We had so much fun and tried alot of local food from the European and Asian side.
Thank you very much!
This first thing on my list for Turkey experience was the sampling of the authentic local street food and cuisines. Found these guys online and thought i would give it a shot at their Foodie Trail experience and man it was one of the best decision i made in Istanbul. They not just take you to these absolutely unknown corners of the coty to sample these incredibly good street food but also helps you understand the background on it, you can say an immersive cultural experience of the city through the lens of the local food and cuisine of the city. Well done SGA Travel team and high praise to the local guide who knows his stuff and most importantly knows his city!
Our guide, Suleyman, was outstanding!! His thorough knowledge and presentation of the sites and culture of Turkey are unequalled. His organization and flexibility helped us enjoy the experience even more. SGA Travel which arranged for Suleyman to be our guide was equally excellent!!
Wonderfully organized and executed trip! Fatih tour guide and Caglar, the organizer are both excellent! Highly recommend their services for our friends and relatives!
