Great food tour!

Second visit to istanbul and we hadn’t realised how much was still to explore! Met in an area we hadn’t been before and was gorgeous - went to places we never would have discovered which were lovely and ate some incredible foods. Would def recommend:)

Excellent Istanbul Food Tour

This was our first time in Istanbul, and we like to do food tours on our first day in new places to get well fed and understand some of the city and culture. Through WithLocals, we’ve done ~10 of these tours, and this one is as good as it gets! Turkey has amazing food, which certainly helps, but Lorena is also very knowledgeable about the food and the place. Highly recommend!
