Overview

When traveling to Istanbul, you can expect to immerse yourself in centuries of history and diverse cultures. Turkey offers a unique look at multiple historical periods, from the Ancient World to Medieval Times to the modern era.

Yet, with so many incredible tourist attractions, it can be difficult to narrow down your options. That's why we're bringing you this tour to the top places to visit in Istanbul you just can't miss out on.

This tour has two options offered for different locations of hotels:

If you book the tour without the additional service of "private transfers"; you will be accompanied by our guide throughout the tour and the guide will advise the best possible way to get to the old city and back to hotel (i.e. taxi, public transportation, ferry or metro).

If you book the tour with the additional service of "private transfers"; there will be a private minivan at your service from pick-up to drop-off.

Please make your own judgment depending on the location of your hotel
