Tour description

Welcome Dear Walkers and Food Hunters!

Street Food Tour will offer you to discover Turkish Cuisine which is not very well known for the tourist.

We design this tour for you in certain locations of old city where locals spend their time for food & drink with more reasonable prices.

As it is a free tour paying for the food is on the attendees. I will be explaining culinary customs and showing the places for the food. Attendees may pay for the food for tasting or they can just listen and get to know about these places. It is not obligated to buy the food.

* Better if you keep with you 600-700 Turkish Liras to try food and drinks on spots.

* This is not a vegan or vegetarian friendly tour!

* Walkers are expected to be patient and respectful with each other in case ordering food may take time at some spots.

* Tour route will around 1,8 km.

*Please note that at the end of the tour, you are expected to tip the guide minimum 10 Pounds, 10 Dollars, 10 Euros or 400 liras per person

* We keep the number of walkers between 4 - 10 in our tours.

*The tour duration may vary depending on the guide and the number of participants.
