We begin our adventure in a city that spans two continents. Our exploration will take us to the Mosque of Suleyman the Magnificent, the largest mosque in Istanbul. We'll pass by the city walls, the Golden Horn, the fishermen's district, and marvel at the exterior of Hagia Sophia. After this, we offer tickets for a visit to the Topkapi Palace, the former administrative hub of the Ottoman Empire, with its spectacular courtyards and pavilions.
In the late afternoon, we'll head to the bustling Taksim neighborhood, the city's commercial and entertainment heart. You'll have free time to enjoy dinner in one of the many local restaurants, take a ride on the old tram, or visit the nearby Galata Tower.
