Here’s an overview of your tour

How about a break from the historical sites of the city in a fully local area of the town? Kadikoy is a place to be for locals where they enjoy their spare time in local tea houses, cool coffee shops admiring the beautiful street art and enjoying the most delicious food from all over the country.

This 3 hour capsule food walk is created for you to experience tastes from all over the country: Black Sea, Southeast, Mediterranean and Aegean. You'll be able to taste the best examples from each area without travelling all over the country.

We will end our experience with a delicious Turkish Coffee and see how to make a perfect Turkish coffee :)

Be sure to arrive hungry!
