Wow wow wow! I cannot recommend these guys enough. Their service, food knowledge and genuine enthusiasm for Istanbul’s food history made this tour 100x better. Only issue I had was that I couldn’t spend longer with them tasting the various foods of the city. Will DEFINITELY be recommending them to anyone who will listen for the foreseeable future!
