Lavish palaces, Byzantine art, beautiful mosques, bustling bazaars, Turkish food… all things that come to mind when you think of Istanbul. This tour is designed to cover the major highlights of Istanbul and maximize your time in this classical city. Visit the Hagia Sophia, a masterpiece of Byzantine architecture and considered as the 8th wonder of the world by most art historians. Another highlight of your tour is Topkapi Palace, a great walled complex hugging the shores of the Bosphorus and Golden Horn, once the residence of the Ottoman Sultans. Other stops in your itinerary are a historical mosque and the Grand Bazaar. You’ll have a chance to explore the exotic atmosphere of the covered part for a brief period of time. You’ll also visit the open, modern section where you’ll enjoy local snacks and a presentation of carpets, leather or jewelry, followed by time for shopping. A Turkish lunch is also part of your classical Istanbul experience.
