Visit the Major historical highlights of Istanbul - Fantastic tour taking us through the main attractions in the centre of old town! We visited Hagia Sofia, the Basilica cistern, the Blue Mosque, stopped by the hippodrome and the tour ended in the Grand Bazaar. Lots of facts and history and our guide was very kind to us and helped and waited for our slow pace with great patience and good humor. We enjoyed our visit today. We did have to purchase the fast entrance to hagia Sofia end the Basilica Cistern which are not included with the ticket price so be prepared as prices have gone up (March 2025) you can check them on their website. The tour guide can help you purchasing the tickets.

Great start to a week in Istanbul - My brother and I attended the tour on Monday after landing on Sunday night. The group only has 2 other people. I liked having the small group. The guide knew lots of great history and stories and threw in jokes. He gave us plenty of space and time to roam around on our own and take pictures.
