Overview
Escape the tourist crowds and experience Istanbul like a local!
This walking tour takes you through all the must-see areas on the Asian side of Istanbul—a part of the city full of character, color, and real life. You’ll explore neighborhoods where the city truly breathes, with stories, flavors, and views known mostly to locals.
Using ferries (just like real Istanbulites!), we’ll cross the Bosphorus and dive deep into the culture, history, and everyday rhythm of Istanbul.
We’ll discuss how people live, what they eat, where they shop, and why these neighborhoods are key to the city’s soul. You’ll come away with new favorites, unforgettable views, and stories you won’t find in any guidebook.
