Meet your private guide and start the day exactly like a local. We kick off in the vibrant Karakoy district with a lavish, traditional Turkish breakfast. You will savor classics like menemen (Turkish scrambled eggs with tomatoes and peppers), sucuklu omelet (spicy beef sausage), and decadent kaymak (clotted cream) drenched in local honey.

После восхитительного завтрака мы сопроводим вас на неспешную прогулку по оживленным кварталам Топхане и Каракёй. Во время этой прогулки вы познакомитесь с богатой турецкой культурой кофе и насладитесь ее уникальным вкусом. Кроме того, у вас будет возможность удовлетворить свою тягу к сладкому свежайшей пахлавой в паре с шариком восхитительного турецкого мороженого.

We leave Europe behind and board a local ferry to cross the spectacular Bosphorus Strait. Enjoy the sea breeze and iconic skyline views as we arrive in Kadikoy on the Asian side (historically known as Chalcedon).

Kadikoy is a food lover's paradise. As we explore the bustling streets, you will have the chance to taste authentic, slow-cooked Turkish home meals (at a traditional artisan eatery) or indulge in perfectly grilled, premium kebabs. No culinary tour of Kadikoy is complete without visiting the vibrant fish market. Here, we will dive into iconic Istanbul street food, including savory stuffed or fried mussels and the famous kokorec. (Plus, your guide will have a few delightful "secret dishes" up their sleeve for you to try along the way!)

We will end our culinary journey at the Kadikoy ferry station. Your guide will ensure you are perfectly oriented and help you board the correct ferry for a simple, relaxing ride back to your hotel on the European side. • Please note: the itinerary is subject to change, based on the location's availability and weather. • You will have a chance to experience local culture while visiting some local markets, bazaars, and backstreets. • This is a 5-hour walking tour. • We will use public transportation such as ferry. • You have full freedom on our tours, and we can accommodate your dietary restrictions, such as gluten-free or vegetarian options.
