What you can expect

History and culture await you at every corner on your journey through Istanbul. Discover the Hippodrome, the mighty Blue Mosque, and the Hagia Sophia Basilica. Experience how traditions are still intertwined with daily life as you navigate the labyrinthine streets of the Grand Bazaar in search of great deals.

Your morning begins with a visit to the remaining columns and obelisks of the Hippodrome, once the hub of sports, theatre, and politics in the former Roman capital of Constantinople. See where chariot races once thrilled the crowds, and where orators once delivered powerful speeches.

Next, explore the magnificent Blue Mosque, also known as the Sultan Ahmed Mosque, named after its founder. Marvel at the tomb of the great ruler and admire the intricate designs and floral patterns of the Ottoman tiles adorning the shrine's walls.

Behold the splendour of the 6th-century Byzantine basilica, Hagia Sophia, which has served as a church, a mosque, and now a mosque once again. Take in the architectural innovation of its domed structure and admire the panelled interior with its coloured marble and ornamental stone inlays.

Conclude your tour with an exhilarating shopping experience at the bustling Grand Bazaar. From diamonds and carpets to food and perfumes, you're sure to find excellent bargains.
