Your day begins with intense, awe-inspiring sites Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapı palace and cistern then shifts gradually into relaxation — ending with a Bosphorus cruise at golden hour. Most itineraries cluster sites without giving breathing room.
Explore the lavish palace of Ottoman sultans: imperial courtyards, treasury (with the Topkapi Dagger and Spoonmaker’s Diamond), and sacred relics.
1,500-year-old masterpiece. A former cathedral, mosque, and museum, Hagia Sophia reflects the layers of Istanbul’s history.
The Hippodrome of Istanbul, originally built as the Hippodrome of Constantinople, was a large ancient arena used primarily for chariot races and public events; it was constructed in the early 3rd century AD by Emperor Septimius Severus and significantly renovated and expanded by Emperor Constantine the Great in the 4th century to accommodate over 100,000 spectators in a U-shaped structure with grandstands and an imperial box connected directly to the Great Palace.
This iconic 400 years old mosque is known for its six minarets and interior blue tiles.
Descend into a mysterious underground water reservoir with ancient columns and dim lighting. Worth to see Medusa heads!
Enjoy scenic roundtrip cruise with views of Dolmabahçe & Çırağa Palaces, Ortaköy Mosque, Bosphorus Bridge, Maiden’s Tower. You can have Traditional Turkish Tea/Coffee and Simit while you are listening enjoyable stories.
The Spice Bazaar in Istanbul, also known as the Egyptian Bazaar (Mısır Çarşısı), is a historic covered market located in the Eminönü quarter of the Fatih district, built in 1660-1664 with revenues from the Ottoman province of Egypt to support the nearby New Mosque; it has been the city's main center for spice trade and is known for its vibrant shops selling spices, Turkish delight, dried fruits, nuts, and souvenirs.
