Discover the other side of Istanbul on this alternative free tour, focusing on local traditions, food, and daily life.
Description
We'll meet at the designated time in front of the old Corculu Ali Pasha Madrasah. From there, we'll proceed to the Süleymaniye Mosque, one of the largest mosques in Istanbul. During our walk, we will discuss lesser-known customs of local residents.
The tour will address questions about Turkish weddings, the popularity of religion, and local lifestyles. This free tour will provide insights into the authentic experience of the city.
Additionally, we will visit attractions less frequented by tourists, including Beyazit Square, the Book Market, and the University.
We will also sample Turkish delicacies and famed cuisines, including borek, enhancing our experience.
After a duration of 2.5 hours, we will conclude the tour near the Suleymaniye Mosque, located 10 minutes from the Spices Market and the Grand Bazaar of Istanbul.
