Overview
Step back in time and accompany us on a journey through the remarkable 2700-year history of Istanbul. Our tour will transport you through the ages, commencing with the humble origins of Byzantion, a quaint fishing village. From there, we'll traverse the grand epochs of the Roman and Byzantine Empires before reaching the pinnacle of Ottoman splendor in this magnificent city!
We intentionally keep our groups small to ensure a more personalized and interactive adventure. We genuinely enjoy getting to know each tour participant, engaging in conversations, and forging connections with fellow travelers :)
Our tour will last around 2.5 hours, and we will see:
Hagia Sophia: Marvel is an architectural masterpiece that has been around for centuries.
Blue Mosque: Stand in awe of its stunning domes and intricate blue tiles.
Topkapi Palace: Experience the Ottoman grandeur and learn about the sultans who once ruled.
Grand Bazaar: Get lost in the maze of vibrant stalls and shop for souvenirs.
Basilica Cistern: Descend into the ancient underground water reservoir and soak in its mystical ambiance.
Hippodrome Square: Discover the remnants of ancient chariot races.
...and many more!
