About local Tolga
24 July 2025
Great Experience!

What a wonderful tour! Tolga knew all of the best places to take us on our food tour and we truly feel we got a taste of Turkey. Tolga not only is very knowledgeable on Turkish food, but also the history of Turkey. I highly recommend Tolga for any tour.

Great food tour!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 10 tastings of Istanbul tour with Alp. We tried a wide variety of local favorites, and everyone in our family enjoyed something different.

About local Esra
22 July 2025
Esra was great!

Esra was in contact with us before our tour. She introduced us to a friend the day before our tour who helped us shop in the grand bizarre. She made it easy to connect and was able to move our tour up a bit to accommodate our hectic schedule. Her knowledge of Istanbul and her professionalism were both outstanding. I highly recommend her.
