Only in Izmir: Exploring the Seaside City’s Culinary Traditions

Posted By : P7376OHemilyc
After having done a Culinary Backstreets tour in Athens and loving it I had high hopes for this İzmir tour, and this tour with Nuket did not disappoint! The food was amazing (and very plentiful -- absolutely do not eat anything beforehand, and maybe even go easy on dinner the night before!) and Nuket was so knowledgeable about the food and culture of the region. Walking around the market with Nuket, you get to peek behind the scenes of local businesses and talk to shop owners, bakers, and cooks, all of whom were very friendly. If you love food and are interested in trying some of the most typical dishes of the city, I would highly recommend this tour!

Our food tour with with the engaging, informative and all around wonderful tour guide Nuket was truly a highlight of our trip to Turkey. Nuket's tour was a perfect mix of exceptional Izmir cuisine with great backround in the city's intriguing history and culture. We truly got "off the beaten path" an interacted with a nubmer of charming local business owners. We were invited into kitchens and really got an in depth experience of Izmir culture. It was hands down the best food tour we have ever done.

Highly, highly recomended!

What an extraordinary day we enjoyed with Nuket, our guide! Unique and interesting foods served by hospitable vendors were the centerpiece. Nuket's comfortable and established rapport with vendors, her knowledgeable and informative comments about foods as well as the history, culture and traditions of Izmir and its inhabitants, gave us more than food to nibble. (The "What to Expect" itinerary for this tour listing only begins to cover what is in store for you. We would enjoy repeating this tour.)
