This was a fabulous tour and our guide, Betül, was the best guide we had on this trip. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Turkey, the palace, and the city of Istanbul.

It was absolutely amazing - we learned so much. Our guide Aylin went above and beyond, was extremely knowledgeable about not just food (and all of the locations and purveyors) but also the city and history. I would never have tried all the things that we tried or explored those neighborhoods without this tour. And that pickle stall was my favorite thing ever - makes me want to never leave the city…
I would recommend this to anyone and everyone, not just for food experience but for how much we learned about the city and its history.
