Flavours of Istanbul with Bery (Food Tour)

A fantastic culinary tour with Berry and Kaan. They took us on a colourful journey of discovery through the various dishes of Turkey and Istanbul. We discovered and tasted lots of new dishes. Thank you for all the great information.

My friend and I booked a whirlwind five day trip to Turkiye, with one full-day guided tour in Istanbul with Reminder Tour. Kaan, our guide, was amazing. I had a short list of oddly specific places that my friend and I wanted to visit in Istanbul, including the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Fener and Balat, and Kadikoy on the Asian side. Kaan got us to all those places and more, including the Spice Bazaar. He even joined in on our “cat count (we lost track after about 50 cats.)” Kaan felt like an old friend, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Bery and Kaan in the future to explore more of this city full of hidden gems.

Prompt responses to any inquiry, tailor made tour that went above our expectations. We highly recommend booking any tour with Kaan and Berry due to their personal touches, expensive knowledge, and exceptional personality that makes you feel that you are experiencing an adventure with close friends. If you are looking for the best tour in Istanbul, this is it.

I am disabled and walk with a cane. Tours have been challenging because I have to really keep up with everyone. We were able to arrange a private tour with Reminder Tours. Bery and Kaan were caring, kind, and patient, providing a tour that accommodated my pace as well as staying within our limited time at port. I wanted to do a lot within 6 hours! Our itinerary included walking through the local backstreets, the spice bazaar, buying some souvenirs in Eminonou, lunch at a place that locals frequent for their doner and Iskender, then baklava with tea at the best baklava shop in Istanbul and probably the world. With all that we did, it felt as if time spent with good friends. Kaan and Bery are knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about the history of their city. They took care of every detail, including bringing a bag for our shoes ( you have to take off at the mosque). Even if you did your own general research about Istanbul and major sites such as Hagia Sophia or Blue mosque, you will learn more. Be ready to walk, and don’t be afraid to experience some of the local eats and drinks. This was one of the most genuinely memorable all-day tours we have experienced as seasoned cruisers; one YOU WILL REMEMBER for the rest of your life.

I had been following Bery for a while on instagram. When I found out she was doing tours, there was no reason to look further. Meeting Bery and Kaan was like meeting old friends. They were great guides, showed us so much we wouldn’t have seen on our own. They took us to their favorite eats, and hidden spots. Toured Istanbul for three days with them. They are extremely professional, and fun to be with, very accommodating. It was an unforgettable vacation.

From the moment my husband and I met Kaan and Berry for our tour of Istanbul, we knew we were in for something truly special. Not only did they show us the breathtaking sights and sounds of this historic city, but they also treated us like friends, making our experience incredibly personal and memorable. Their knowledge of Istanbul is unmatched, and their passion for sharing its culture and beauty is contagious. They took us to both iconic landmarks and hidden gems, telling stories that brought the history of each place to life. But what really set this tour apart was how Kaan and Berry went above and beyond to connect with us on a personal level, sharing laughs and creating moments that we will treasure forever. The entire day felt like exploring the city with friends who just happen to know all the best spots and stories. We never felt like just tourists on a tour; we felt like part of a small, traveling family discovering the wonders of Istanbul together. I cannot recommend Kaan and Berry enough. If you’re looking for a tour that’s informative, fun, and heartwarmingly personal, then look no further. My husband and I are now huge fans of these two incredible guides, and we will be recommending them to all our friends and family. Thank you, Kaan and Berry, for making our visit to Istanbul unforgettable. We’re not just taking home photos; we’re taking home new friendships and beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.

Last week we visited Turkey and booked before travel a tour with Reminder company, Very professional company, we had many questions and Furkam always answer all the inquires immediately. we paid 25.00 for deposit to separate the day for a private tour with Bery and Tour guide Kaan. The tour was an incredible experience , Kaan and Bery showed us the city and we walked the street like old friends. They are very professional ,amiable and with extensive knowledge about history of the city and the important places of this mysterious country. They taught us many things about the city and made our vacation wonderful days and an unforgettable experience . We fully recommend this company and the tour with Bery and tour guide Kaan. Thank you for all the time that was spent with us. – [ ]

We had the pleasure of doing a tour with Kaan and Bery on the 2nd of January. We were able to see most of the important sights i.e. Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern, Hagia Sophia, Grand Bazaar, and the Hippodrome . The knowledge they shared about these areas pushed the experience to another level while we admired the beauty of these structures . They were extremely accommodating and took us to have local coffee as well as a local Turkish place for lunch . Their local knowledge came in handy since they even took us to the best place by far for currency conversion to Turkish Lira’s. Kaan and Bery are very sweet and would highly recommend their tour. Will book them again to see more of Istanbul since a one-day tour of Istanbul isn’t enough. They picked us up from our Airbnb bang on time and were courteous enough to drop us back as well. Kaan helped us quite a bit by sending us links to must-try restaurants around our area and what hamams we should go to. All this post our tour which was again extremely helpful.Overall a great experience with these 2

Unlike the larger group tours, this experience was entirely private and relaxed. We had the opportunity to engage in conversations and ask questions about anything. Highly recommend.

We highly recommend booking any tour with Kaan and Bery. Very informative and friendly. If you are looking for the best tour in Istanbul, this is it! Thank you guys.

Amazing tour! I’m glad I’ve met with this lovely couple and toured with them. It was highlight of my Istanbul trip. Will definitely come back.

Since we watched all of Bery’s videos, it felt like we already knew her; we didn’t feel like we were touring with a stranger at all. It was such a great day. Thank you, Bery & Kaan!

We took a tour with Bery and her tour guide husband Kaan. It was incredible. Bery is so cute like in her videos. We enjoyed the tour so much. Thank you guys!

We decided to come to Istanbul thanks to Bery’s videos. It was very lovely to meet her and her husband. It was a private tour just for us. It was like touring with a friend. We learned a lot of things about the city. Will definitely come back!
