Overview
The tour combines the most important highlights of Istanbul’s historic Old City in one carefully organized experience with hotel transfers, a professional local guide, and a traditional Turkish lunch included. Unlike standard tours, we focus on storytelling and cultural insights while visiting iconic landmarks such as Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, the Hippodrome, and the Grand Bazaar, allowing guests to truly understand the history of Byzantium and the Ottoman Empire in a comfortable, well-paced itinerary.
During the tour, you will learn about the history of the Ottoman and Byzantine eras, the stories behind each monument, and the meaning of the calligraphy and daily life inside the mosques.
Dress code (important):
As we will enter mosques, female guests are kindly requested to bring a headscarf and wear clothing that covers chest and legs. Male guests’ shorts must cover the knees.
