Itinéraire
C'est une mosquée active du 17ème siècle et la plus visitée de Turquie. Le nom original est la mosquée de Sultanahmet. Le bleu est le nom donné à cause des tuiles bleues utilisées à l'intérieur. * il a été fermé en raison de travaux de rénovation au cours des 6 dernières années, mais il est maintenant ouvert depuis le 21 avril.
C'est la base de l'hippodrome romain qui a été construit au 4ème siècle de notre ère pour les courses de chars. Les monuments conservés sont: obélisque égyptien (1500 av. J.-C.), colonne du serpent (Ve siècle av. J.-C.), colonne de Constantin (10 e siècle après JC).
C'est un réservoir d'eau qui ressemble à un palais souterrain. Basilique Citerne l'un des exemples les plus impressionnants de l'architecture romaine. Ne manquez pas de marcher jusqu'au bout pour voir les gigantesques têtes de Méduse retournées.
Nous visitons ce patrimoine mondial datant du 6ème siècle de notre ère. C'est un bâtiment unique qui comprend deux religions (l'islam et le christianisme). Vous verrez une architecture inhabituelle, des mosaïques, de la chirographie, et votre guide vous informera de ses 1500 symboles de l'histoire, de l'architecture et de la religion.
Nous prendrons une pause thé/café dans ce café local où les habitants socialisent avec du thé et du café en buvant et en fumant de la chicha/narguilé. C'était une ancienne école religieuse jusque dans les années 1930. Les boissons sont incluses dans le prix de la visite.
Nous visiterons le Grand bazar de l'intérieur où votre guide vous donnera quelques conseils sur le shopping. Visite se terminera à proximité où vous pourrez revenir pour faire du shopping. Veuillez noter que, Grand bazar est fermé le dimanche, il sera donc remplacé par Spice bazar. En outre, les deux bazars sont fermés lors des fêtes religieuses deux fois par an et, à cette époque, il sera remplacé par le bazar Arasta.
C'est un excellent moyen de voir et d'apprendre comment les tapis turcs faits à la main sont fabriqués. C'est une boutique adaptée dans un Caravansérail vieux de 500 ans ( ancien hôtel ). Ce qui rend cet endroit différent des autres est qu'ils ne sont pas poussifs sur la vente, dignes de confiance sur les tapis de qualité et d'expédition pour ceux qui achètent. Il s'agit d'une activité facultative à la fin de la visite donc seuls ceux qui sont intéressés s'y joindront.

Great tour of Istanbul, Ömer was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of useful information. The 1/2 day was perfect for us with just enough time at each
Beyhan our guide texted us the night before to remind us to bring cash for repayment of the entrance fees. The entrance fees of $144 for two places seemed to be a little steep in addition to $120 for the two us for the tour. I know Tripadvisor has no input on entrance cost but just wanted you to be aware that your tour may not include the entrance cost and they will cost a little more than 10 –20 dollars or euros to get in.😉 It ended up being a private tour. 😊 In addition to the two mosques, cistron, she also took us to a carpet store to learn more about the process, as well as as a local tea/smoking parlor. She also showed us the Grand bizarre and allowed us to explore more on our own. She was a delight to be with and highly recommend her. She answered questions gave us more insight into the history as well as the local culture.
Omer from My Local Guide was extremely knowledgeable about all the locations visited on the tour - he has his masters in the Ottoman Empire and is a wealth of knowledge. The pace of the tour was appropriate for the hot day. He took us to the old section of the Grand Bazaar which has makers rather than just sellers which I found very interesting.
Our guide Omer was great both with historical facts and local knowledge and made for a very enjoyable morning. Would highly recommend
Omer was extremely knowledgeable and we gained great insight to the history of Istanbul and the various sites visited. One recommendation is that tickets should be all inclusive rather than having to exchange cash during the tour. Would recommend Omer as a guide.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Omer and that his knowledge helped bring Istanbul’s rich history to life. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the entrance tickets. We understand that having everything included would be more convenient. Due to the frequent changes in ticket prices, we’ve chosen to keep entrance fees separate to ensure guests always pay the official rates. We truly appreciate your understanding. Thank you again for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back to Istanbul in the future!
Omer was an awesome guide, engaging and knowledgeable about all the historic sites that are part of this tour. I highly recommend this company and especially Omer.
