About Tour
Go back in time to the days of ancient Constantiopolis (East Rome) and Ottoman Empire on this walking tour of the historic Hippodrome, Blue Mosque, Topkapı Palace, Hagia Sophia and Grand Bazaar. Explore the streets of Istanbul’s Old City, visit its best attractions and learn about its amazing history.
If you are a foreigner and come to Istanbul for the first time, you should definitely take this tour to understand what kind of city you are in. If you are from Istanbul, I think you should also do this tour at least once a year. Because feeling the uniqueness of Istanbul will make us feel special and increase our commitment to our city.
