A wonderful night! - The food tour was a wonderful experience, thanks to Kubilay's knowledge and his enthusiasm for sharing it. He said he's a big fan of culture and history, and it showed in the number and variety of stories he shared through the night. He didn't just talk about the food itself, but also about its role in the larger cultural context of Turkey and Istanbul's history and geography. Plus, he was always willing to talk about a variety of topics. some of the many highlights of the food were the Cig Kofte, the cream-based varieties of Turkish Delight, the Ayran (buttermilk), the Reyan Sherbet, the Adana kebap and the meatball in yoghurt (haydari). And there are accommodations for vegetarian food too. His overall recommendations and willingness to always offer something helped us out the rest of our trip!

A well thought traditional experience - “Very well structured - road side eateries for tea and snacks, a boutique restaurant for Lokum, and finally an authentic Turkish restaurant for a sumptuous dinner. It was our first day at Istanbul, and we got a great start. Wonderful hospitality and attention to details. Even after the tour, Zey and Kubilai helped with securing ticket for events, airport pickup and drops (nice cars, great service), and even suggestion for eateries. Thanks for everything. Will also remember Selen for her sense of humour.”
