Detailed Itinerary
DESTINATION – ISTANBUL
Arrival at Istanbul Airport, assistance and transfer to the hotel.
ISTANBUL (BREAKFAST)
Breakfast at the hotel. Morning departure to visit the Rüstem Pasha Mosque. Afterwards, we will enjoy one of Istanbul’s most famous activities: a boat cruise along the Bosphorus, the strait that separates Europe and Asia. During the cruise, you will admire the Sultans’ palaces, traditional wooden houses, and experience the city’s history from a different perspective. We will end the day with one of Istanbul’s highlights, the Spice Bazaar, established by the Ottomans five centuries ago and still in use today. Free time to explore the bazaar. End of the visit at the Egyptian Bazaar.
ISTANBUL (BREAKFAST)
Breakfast at the hotel. Free day to explore the city at your own leisure, with the possibility of taking an optional full-day excursion, The Jewels of Constantinople, including lunch. The tour includes a visit to the ancient Hippodrome, dating back to the Byzantine era. It was the center of civil activity in the city, where not only horse races and gladiator fights were held, but also celebrations in honor of the Emperor. Today, it preserves the Obelisk of Theodosius, the Serpent Column, and the German Fountain of Emperor Wilhelm II. We will then visit the Blue Mosque, built in 1609 during the reign of Sultan Ahmet I, who wanted to surpass Hagia Sophia with his mosque and therefore had it built with six minarets. Afterwards, we will visit Topkapi Palace, the residence of the Ottoman sultans until the 19th century, where most of the Ottoman sultans’ valuable treasures and possessions are preserved. We will then visit Hagia Sophia, the finest example of Byzantine art and one of humanity’s greatest architectural achievements. Finally, we will transfer to the Grand Bazaar. This covered bazaar, built in 1660, can be considered a small city under hundreds of domes, featuring around four thousand shops, narrow streets, squares, and 18 entrance gates. End of the visit at the Grand Bazaar.
ISTANBUL – CITY OF ORIGIN (BREAKFAST)
