How could anyone expect you to explore a city which straddles two continents in just one day? But, with one of our Istanbul hosts by your side, you can certainly make a go of it.
There’s a mosaic-encrusted Byzantine basilica waiting for you, the stunning Blue Mosque to marvel at, the lush gardens of Dolmabahçe Palace to stroll through and the Grand Bazaar to get lost in as you haggle for a Turkish tea set (you never know when you’ll need one).
Along the way, you’ll enjoy a feast of mezze on a terrace overlooking the Bosphorus Strait, duck into an obscure looking tavern for some traditional dishes or spend the whole day munching on street eats.
This being said, we know that a city is more than a place, it’s a feeling.
So what we’ll ensure you experience is the inimitable feeling of the city, experienced through the authentic lens of someone who knows and adores it.
Shoot for the moon, and if you fall you’ll land amongst the stars. Or maybe on one of the turrets of Topkapi Palace.
