There is a saying in Latin: Live like a Roman when you are in Rome! Istanbul is a city which is built for walking. For that reason, the best way of exploring Istanbul is to walk up and down through the hills and try the best local food along the way as the locals do. Here, with this tour, we would like to show you the hidden local gems and how the locals live.
