The cool breezes of the Bosphorus, streets steeped in history, and the mingling scents of spices, the sea, and coffee... The "ISTANBUL TOUR" is designed for you to discover both the magnificent history and the lively, colorful face of this enchanting city. In this tour, where you will experience the legacy of a millennia-old empire alongside modern metropolitan life in one day, you will encounter a new story at every step. In the morning, we will meet in the Historical Peninsula and head towards the heart of Istanbul. In this area that bears traces of Byzantium before the Ottoman Empire and even earlier Roman times, you will embark on a journey through time among mosques with blue domes soaring into the sky, majestic palaces, and stone streets.
