Reisroute
Dit is een actieve moskee uit de 17e eeuw en de meest bezochte in Turkije. Oorspronkelijke naam is Sultanahmet-moskee. Blauw is de naam vanwege de blauwe tegels die erin zijn gebruikt. * het was de afgelopen 6 jaar gesloten wegens renovatie, maar het is nu open sinds 21 april.
Dit is de basis van de Romeinse hippodroom die in de 4e eeuw na Christus werd gebouwd voor wagenrennen. De overgebleven monumenten zijn de Egyptische obelisk (1500 v.Chr.), Kolom Serpent (5e eeuw v.Chr.), Constantijnse kolom (10e eeuw na Christus).
Dit is een waterreservoir dat lijkt op een ondergronds paleis. Basilica Cisterne een van de meest indrukwekkende voorbeelden van Romeinse architectuur. Mis niet om naar het einde te lopen om de gigantische Medusa-hoofden ondersteboven te zien.
We bezoeken deze 6-eeuwse AD werelderfgoed van binnenuit. Het is een uniek gebouw omarmen twee religie (islam en christendom) van binnen. Je ziet een ongewone architectuur, mozaïeken, chirografiekunst en je gids geeft je informatie over 1500 geschiedenis-, architectuur- en religiesymbolen.
We zullen een thee / koffiepauze houden in dit lokale café waar de lokale bevolking socialiseren met thee en koffie drinken en shisha / waterpijp roken. Dit was tot 1930 een voormalige religieuze school. Drankjes zijn bij de tourprijs inbegrepen.
We bezoeken de Grand bazaar van binnenuit waar uw gids u enkele tips geeft over winkelen. Tour zal eindigen in de buurt waar u kunt terugkomen om te winkelen. Houd er rekening mee dat de Grand bazaar op zondag gesloten is, dus deze wordt vervangen door Spice bazaar. Daarnaast zijn beide bazaars twee keer per jaar gesloten op religieuze festivals en in die dagen zal het worden vervangen door Arasta bazaar.
Dit is een geweldige manier om te zien en te leren hoe de handgemaakte Turkse tapijten worden gemaakt. Het is een winkel geschikt in een 500 jaar oude Caravanserai (oud hotel ). Wat maakt deze plek anders dan anderen is dat ze niet opdringerig op de verkoop, betrouwbaar op de tapijten kwaliteit en verzending voor degenen die kopen. Dit is een optionele activiteit aan het einde van de tour, dus alleen degenen die geïnteresseerd zijn zullen meedoen.

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!
