Alp showed me the lesser touristy part of Istanbul: Kadiköy on the asian side of town.
We went to several art works and murals and Alp knew very much to tell about every artpiece. He also responded to my questions on culture, language and history in a very interesting and facing way. I learned a lot new facts about Istanbul and e.g. the role of Germans in the development of the railways in Turkey. We had coffee and turkish cay and chatted about photography.
Hope to come back to Istanbul and hopefully doing another tour with Alp.

Eat first with Ayfer
Ayfer led our mixed group with various food no-go items on a delightful, informative food tour of Istanbul. She was good humoured, knowledgeable, and entertaining. She adapted her program successfully to our delight. We loved talking with her, and enjoyed sharing our reactions and stories with her. Ayfer went beyond our expectations. We were saddened to reach the end of our time with her.

About local
Art, life, language & eats: perfection!
Alp was clear, concise and timely with communications. He allowed our group of two to ask many questions and make requests.
We toured during February’s 1st snow and Alp graciously continued to guide us stopping a few extra times for hot beverages and warmth.
He was quite knowledgeable about Turkey’s broad history, current events, Europe & Asian sides as well as extensive details on the who:what:why:when of the STREET ART.
The community jewels (restaurants, stores, architecture, etc.) were welcome additions to our journey.
We enjoyed this modern glimpse into the heartbeat of Turkey.
