I would give this tour ten stars if I could ! Our tour guide, Gonca, was exceptional. She has been sharing her love of Turkish culture for over 30 years. We did the 2 continents tour. We had so much delicious food! In addition to explaining the history and etiquette of Turkish foods, she was happy to provide recommendations for other tourist attractions. Our group was small , only 6 people, and it was easy to make a personal connection with everyone. Highly recommend !!

Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! My partner and I did a tour with the wonderful Gonca. Our tour was of the old city. We ate the most delicious food and every time we ate we learned more about Turkish culture and history. All the experiences were genuinely backstreet. We did this on our first full day in Istanbul and would recommend you do it early in your stay to learn where to eat and drink and what to look for. Gonca was a brilliant guide, passionate about Turkish culture and very flexible. The tour was quite personal as we had five in our group.

A friend of mine recommended the Culinary tour, and if there is anything you don’t want to miss it’s this. We had the most beautiful evening. Remziye our host was super knowledgeable and had her hands full with our group, she was fantastic and treated us with such charm. The food at all the quaint restaurants were delicious and true to the Turkish cuisine. Don’t hesitate…. Book your tour. We loved it!
