    A must do in Istanbul!

    Molly_Z, May 2026
    Suleyman was the best guide!! He gave us so much history, fun facts, great eats, and laughs on this 5 hour food tour. He began our tour with a great breakfast spread! He knew we wanted to try some baklava so he added in a special stop - we really appreciated him modifying the tour to make this even more special for us. We then went to 4 additional places, then the spice bazaar, and finally a soup spot that came to be our top dish of the day! Every single place was different, tasty, and accompanied with some Turkish tea of course. Thank you to Suleyman for a wonderful day in Istanbul, you made this tour so amazing. Highly highly recommend.

    Excellent food tour in Istanbul!

    We had a very enjoyable time with our guide Ismain. He introduced us to many of the local treats of Istanbul. Before each stop, he asked about our preferences to insure we were happy with the choices. We had some delicious foods that we would have never had on our own. He gave us a lot of information about the city and took us in one beautiful mosque. All of our questions were answered clearly. Our group consisted of just two which added to our excellent experience. We both highly recommend this tour.

    Europe-Ferry-Asian walking food tour

    Great way for two female friends to experience the Turkish culture and see both Europe side and Asian side of Istanbul. Our guide Suleyman was very professional, authentic, knowledgeable, and personable. The best way to see Istanbul is with a local guide!

    Highly recommend this one!

    Fantastic experience! Sam is incredibly kind, thorough, thoughtful and very knowledgeable! It was a long tour for our first day, but it helped us acclimate to the time change and a variety of food! We were so full we couldn’t even do dessert or the Turkish coffee.

    Highly recommend this food tour!

    This was one of our groups favorite experiences in Istanbul. It will be so much more food than you think (in the best way possible). Our tour guide, Suleyman was one of the best guides we’ve ever had.
