    Esin was a wonderful host who showed us many great places that were not at all "touristy". She was very engaging and appreciated the time she spent with us and the stories shared

    We did this tour during a free night on our cruise. It was a brutal hike up from Galataport but we discovered a neighborhood of small family-run restaurants that served “fast food” during our tour that we would never had known about. It was a good thing we did all that walking too, because our appetite was ready. You will enjoy the pickle shop and the lahmacun,but wait till you try the kunefe! I’ve already been searching recipes to make it at home.

    Remziye was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic on this tour, and made significant effort to find good restaurants that could accommodate us before sunset when people would break their fasts, as it was during Ramadan. She shared a great deal of knowledge about food and drink culture in Turkey and Istanbul. We ran into her the next day as well and she was very helpful giving us a realistic timeline for an activity we had planned that evening. We would surely have been late without her advice!

    I cannot recommend Culinary Backstreets Tour highly enough. This was our fourth tour with them - we used them in Lisbon, Athens, Tbilisi and now Istanbul. Each time it has been the highlight of our trip and this was no exception. Dilek, our guide, was a marvel. She warm, incredibly smart, passionate about food and history and, above all, just a wonderful person to spend the day with. We walked away from the tour with a full stomach, a enhanced understanding of Istanbul, an experience of a life time and a friend. 10 out of 5 stars :)

    I would recommend this tour and company to anyone who would listen! The experience was amazing. It ended up only being my husband and I on the tour. Our guide Remziye, was amazing. She explained the culture, history, and food that we were enjoying. She is extremely knowledgeable and the food was amazing! We tried things that I would not have thought about trying in a foreign country because I would not have necessarily understood what I was ordering. She took the time to explain the food and the history of it prior to enjoying each delicious dish. . I will definitely look to see if there is a culinary backstreet tour where I travel to next!
