Highlights

Istanbul - In the morning, our expert English-speaking guide will collect you from your centrally-located hotel for an immersive full-day walking exploration of Istanbul.
Hippodrome - Visit the Hippodrome of Constantinople, once the epicenter for Olympic events and a variety of sports, including chariot races. Its historical significance is still evident today. Don’t miss the Obelisk of Theodosius, a stunning piece of architecture that underscores Istanbul’s role as a cultural nexus.
Blue Mosque - The tour will guide you through awe-inspiring sites such as the Blue Mosque, renowned for its exquisite interior adorned with ceramics that radiate an intrinsic blue hue.
Hagia Sophia Mosque - Following the Blue Mosque, we’ll explore the splendid Hagia Sophia Mosque.
Topkapi Palace - We’ll also visit Topkapi Palace, the former residence of Ottoman sultans, which now serves as a museum showcasing a vast and impressive collection of Ottoman relics spanning the empire’s 600-year history, capturing its rich aesthetic heritage.
Grand Bazaar - Our journey continues to the Grand Bazaar, a historic marketplace brimming with a myriad of traditional shops under one roof. It has been a hub of trade and culture for centuries in Istanbul. After a thorough walkthrough of its lively and narrow alleys, you’ll have leisure time to absorb the unique ambiance, perhaps purchase mementos, and engage in some haggling, as the Grand Bazaar is renowned for offering fair prices on a wide array of items. At the conclusion of your day’s grand adventure, our guide will escort you back to your hotel, marking the end of our comprehensive Istanbul Walking Tour.

Great Travel Agency in Istanbul - We highly recommend Imperial Travel. Ahmet was super helpful in booking our tours and understanding the needs of our family of five. Our guide, Tuğçe, was also fantastic explaining the fabulously rich history of the sights we were seeing in a clear and enjoyable fashion.
