Istanbul Food Tour
Istanbul Food Tour
An intoductions food tour exploring off-the-beaten path areas in Istanbul.
We designed our Istanbul Food Tour to give our guests an overview of Turkish Cuisine which is one of the richest cuisines on the planet. That is due to the long historic background of Turkey and its mosaic of people from different ethnic and geographic origins. Turkish cuisine reflects the cultural richness and diversity of Turkey. Depending on the region you can taste foods of which roots reach to the Balkans, Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean countries.
Istanbul is the model of Turkey that offers you any kind of traditional Turkish dishes, specific tastes from all around the country and very special street food. Unlike other gourmet tours which have certain themes, we aim to give you a comprehensive introduction to Turkish cuisine with our Istanbul Food Tour. We introduce you to Turkish breakfast, pastries, mezes (starters), street food and kebabs as we explore the best places for coffee, Turkish tea and delicious Turkish desserts, whilst discovering the eating habits of locals and many, many more interesting facts.
