I am a food and Istanbul lover. Gourmet and traveller myself. I work in university here and run a few homestays.
We are in love with Istanbul, its backstreets food, its secret places, dark corner, forgotten churches or hans, its sublime mosques, its touching beauty.
With Airbnb Experiences we thought a series of interesting experiences, for day and night, that would combine learn, fun and authenticity, and could provide you with some experiences a visitor would not be able to accomplish in short time alone.

Where you'll be
We meet at Karakoy and take the Golden Horn Ferry Line upto the last stop, Eyüp
The view FROM the sea is amazing: just like a movie the old bazaars of Eminonu, the great mosques of Suleyman and Fatih, the historical villages, the Orthodox Churches, Fener and Balat, the Roman Walls, everything slowly discloses in front of our eyes
After four bridges we reach Eyup. We visit the historical area, the Mosque, the cemetery and... the famous Güveç :)
