Best food tour with Bahri! - Bahri gave us a wonderful food tour while telling all about the neighborhoods and the history of the city. The amount of food we received on the tour was amazing. We left very full and happy. We’re so glad we took this tour, it was worth every penny. It was obvious that Bahri loves what he does and loves Istanbul.

Great food sampling on... - Great food sampling on the Asian side of the Bosphorus! Bahri escorted us to specialty street food restaurants where the food was interesting and abundant. My only disappointment was that I was ready to eat at 1800 when we met up on the European side and we didn’t stop anywhere there…

A highlight of our trip - Our tour guide Bahri was excellent. We got to try a lot of delicious food we would never have tried without the tour. We had a great group of people. And it was a really fun way to experience catching the ferry and exploring Kadıköy on the Asian side. Can highly recommend this tour.

Excellent Value - Left Us Wanting More - Bahri was amazing. It was a ton of food and super interesting. He provided a lot of great information and was enthusiastic. The different foods, desserts, drinks, etc... that we tried was amazing. He provided a lot of great background information to all of it as well. No item was consumed without information as to the background to that item.

Fantastic food tour! - Fantastic tour with an excellent guide Bahri. We were lucky to just be the only 2 on the evening tour, had a delicious whistle stop tour of Istanbuls best cuisine. My husband and I really enjoyed it, Bahri was warm, relaxed and full of knowledge not just about food but history, culture and top tips for tourists. I would highly recommend, our guide as I felt he went that extra mile! Thanks Bahri :)
