We met out guide (Zafer Baris) at the Spice Bazaar. He was very timely and started our food eating tour with a Turkish breakfast. We had a enjoyable ferry ride over to Kadikoy. Zafer took us through many exciting areas of Kadikoy. We stopped and some greats eating spots. He was so kind to ride with us by train back close to our hotel. My wife and I had a great experience.
