Outstanding experience that took us to three different parts of Istanbul. The food was delicious and plentiful but what really added to the experience were the historical and cultural insights into the city itself. Thanks to Önder our wonderful guide for an unforgettable day!
It is a fantastic way to experience the local culture. Our guide was fantastic. I highly recommend this tour.
