Full description
This eight-hour guided day covers Istanbul's historic centre on foot, taking in the Hippodrome, the Blue Mosque and the Grand Bazaar, where the tour ends. Visits to Topkapi Palace and Hagia Sophia are available for additional admission fees, and a cistern visit replaces Topkapi when the palace is closed.
A restaurant lunch and selected central pickup are included. Reviewers appreciate the guides' storytelling but caution that the day involves substantial walking, roughly nine kilometres over hilly ground according to one visitor.
