The tour was was amazing and Esin was the BEST!!
We did a Culinary Backstreets of the Old City in Istanbul with Esin yesterday. We had the most amazing day. The four of us 2 adults, a 21yo daughter and 19 yo son all loved it and agreed that it was one of the highlights of 3 week holiday in Turkey. Esin was so warm, funny and engaging. She didn’t make us try anything we didn't feel comfortable to eat however having said that all the food was so delicious so we wanted to sample it all. Her interaction with all the local Turkish people and s...Leer más
