We did this food tour on the 2nd day of our trip. Latif shared so much knowledge and introduced us to local dishes that proved very helpful for the rest of our holiday. We’re even planning to revisit some of these places before we leave.
Pro-tip: Skip the hotel breakfast. Go with an empty stomach!

The food tour was a very good experience. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to show us around the area. We got to try a range of local specialties, which gave a nice introduction to the local food culture. Overall, a well-organized and enjoyable tour.

We really enjoyed our time with Latif. Not only the locations presented did not seem to be tourists traps and the food was delicious, but our host was also very knowledgeable about the Turkish culture. Do not eat breakfast at your hotel before the tour, you will get full! Definitely recommend this tour, you will not be disappointed.

We had a really enjoyable tour with Latif. He took us to a good mix of local spots in Kadıköy and we were able to try a wide range of dishes, from savoury bites to coffee and dessert. It was a nice balance of food and background on the history and culture behind each stop.
Latif was knowledgeable and made sure everyone felt comfortable throughout. A good way to explore the area and try places you might not find on your own.
