A must do, wether you are a foodie or not! - Great food, Onder is an amazingly knowledgeable guide, his enthusiasm didn't waiver all day. We were introduced to a variety of foods, their origins and why they are important to the Turkish, including some history of Istanbul. The tour included ferry rides and views of the city which were a great intro to what we were to experience. I would recommend doing this on your first day in town, it gives a good overview of the city and Onder provides great recommendations on places to vist as well as eat.

MUST DO IN ISTANBUL - This tour is a MUST! Many different foods and flavours. Salim was a great guide- friendly, could understand and speak english very good.

A full day of walking, food and information. - Trying food and drink that I couldn’t experience at home was fantastic. Salih was a knowledgeable and personable guide that engaged everyone.

A whirlwind food and sights experience - My family was in Istanbul for a few hours off a tour boat, and were looking for both interesting places to visit and delicious Turkish food. This tour delivered! We met our small group and Onder, our tour guide, at a spice market on the European side. To say spice market hardly does this place justice, as it’s a maze of colorful shops. We sat at a small restaurant for a traditional Turkish breakfast. What can I say but, “Yum!” We then walked through a maze of more shops and made our way to a ferry that took us to the Asian side of the city. After walking through narrow streets, we enjoyed Turkish coffee prepared over glowing charcoal. Jolted by caffein, Onder took us for doner, only this wasn’t what you’d ordinarily find in the city. The restaurant has been run by four generations of the same family and the food was very traditional. Just delicious! More walking took us to eat three varieties of mollusk. Next, traditional lahmacun. After a short stop at a pickle merchant, we took the ferry again to eat balik durum fish wraps. Stomachs full, we managed to walk to our last stop, Beyzadekunefe, for a special sweet treat. Throughout the tour, Onder was a wealth of information, happy to share his favorite food destinations, proving that food is history. Take this tour, and I bet you skip dinner like I did!

Food glorious food - Fabulous food, guide was delightful, ferry rides! The fish wrap and buffalo honey butter are not to be missed!

The tour was amazing. I... - The tour was amazing. I would never have tried the foods that I experienced on my own. He was very knowledgeable and took us at our own pace. Highly recommended.

Loved the tour with... - Loved the tour with Onder! He took us to places we probably wouldn’t have been able to research on our own and also explained histories even outside of food

Great Experience! - Onder did a great job of catering to each guest. He smiled, was warm, and knowledgeable. We ate great food and learned so much history.

Unique Flavours with our guide Ünder - We were taken to some very nice places where the preparation and origin of the food was explained. Some of the recipes were generations old. Our tour was small (4 people) so we could hear the information Ünder was giving but could also ask questions. We liked the variety of food selections and visiting different parts of Istanbul. A wonderful experience!

Small group, great food, lovely guide - Loved our tour, such good value and we ate loads of delicious food. Our guide spoke excellent english and we had a mixed language group so he did really well. Only 6 people in our group which was great as we'd seen loads of tours with A LOT of people! Onder was so knowledgeable and he found Murder on the Orient Express for me in English! Much appreciated and would highly recommend this tour.
