Island Local Food Tasting Tour




Explore Turkish flavors on a scenic island tour. Discover local life beyond the hotspots, savor unique dishes, and delve into Istanbul's rich history and culture. Food not included.
Experience Details
We start our journey on the Asian side, right by the ferry stop. A 40-minute scenic ferry ride will take us to a charming island, offering stunning sea views and fascinating local stories.
Each island has its own distinct style, atmosphere, and cuisine. This experience provides a deeper look into local life and how Turkish people truly live beyond the city's tourist hotspots.
You will explore the diverse flavors of Turkish cuisine while walking through the island’s charming streets.
Beyond tasting local food, this experience offers a deep dive into Istanbul’s history and culture, giving you a local’s perspective on modern life in this dynamic metropolis.
Other Things to Note:
Food is not included in the tour fee.
This allows you to choose what you eat and how much you spend. Most places accept cards, but some small street vendors only take cash, so bringing some Turkish lira is recommended.
