Fantastic walking food tour into the hidden gems

My wife booked for the evening walking food tour and it was a great experience in istanbul. We spent very good approximately 4 and half an hours. We tried real local dishes that we would never eat by ourselves. Food we had was more than enough and the great thing was to sit down next to the 4th Century aqueduct and drink black tea among local people. We had great times. Go for it guys!!!
