Tour Overview

Escape the tourist traps and dive into Istanbul's coolest culinary neighborhood on a 100% vegetarian street food adventure through Kadıköy! Guided by an insider, we’ll explore the vibrant, colorful streets of the Asian side, where local life, art, and incredible plant-based food meet.

Across 7 distinct stops, you’ll savor the sun-drenched flavors of traditional Turkish cuisine. From starting our journey with a warm, sesame-crusted Simit at the lively main square to walking through the bustling Kadıköy Produce Market, this tour is a feast for the senses.

Highlights include tasting sharp, traditional pickle juice, savory Barbunya Pilaki (olive oil-braised beans) at the legendary Çiya Sofrası, fresh Çiğ Köfte wraps, spiced Mercimek Köftesi (lentil meatballs), and flaky, golden spinach Börek straight from the oven. We’ll finish with a sweet melt-in-your-mouth bite of legendary Turkish Delight (Lokum).

Perfect for curious foodies, independent travelers, and families looking for a unique, eco-conscious, and deeply satisfying local experience. Bring your appetite and enjoy the breeze of Kadıköy with us!
