Itinerario

1. Choose from a morning or afternoon tour, and then start your shore excursion with a pickup from the Port of Istanbul. As you travel through the city, sit back and relax as your onboard guide talks about Istanbul’s Spice Bazaar — your first destination of the tour. One of the city’s most colorful and bustling attractions, the market has operated since the 17th century and remains as popular with locals as it is with visitors. Hop out of your coach and head inside the market while breathing in its heady aromas of fragrant spices and herbs. Hear tips for interesting stalls to visit from your guide, and then enjoy roughly 45 minutes of free time to explore and shop at leisure. After shopping and sightseeing around the famous souk, travel by coach to the banks of the Bosphorus Strait for your cruise. Learn about the famous stretch of water that straddles both the Asian and European continents as you travel, and then board your sightseeing boat for the cruise. Take a seat out on deck or inside the cabin, and cruise past an impressive selection of Istanbul’s showpiece sights. Look out for Dolmabahçe Palace with its decadent façade, 15th-century Rumeli Hisarı Fortress and Beylerbeyi Palace where Ottoman-era sultans spent their summer vacations. Your route takes in sights on both the European and Asian shores and, in addition to Istanbul’s big-name attractions, the cruise also passes some the city’s lesser-known gems: mosques, fortresses, palaces and more. After admiring the sights of the Bosphorus Strait from the water, return to land and finally finish your experience with a port drop-off.

About Istanbul

Istanbul sorge tra Europa e Asia sulle rive del Bosforo, con monumenti bizantini e ottomani, bazar affollati e traghetti tra due continenti.

La penisola storica racchiude i monumenti più grandi. Santa Sofia, la Moschea Blu e l'Ippodromo si fronteggiano a Sultanahmet, la Cisterna Basilica si trova sotto le strade e il Palazzo di Topkapı si estende sulla collina sopra il Corno d'Oro. A pochi passi, il Gran Bazar e il Bazar delle Spezie commerciano da secoli, e la Moschea di Solimano, opera del grande architetto ottomano Sinan, corona uno dei sette colli della città.

Top-ranked sights in Istanbul: Dolmabahce Palace (Dolmabahce Sarayi), Bosphorus, Bosphorus Bridge (Bogazici Koprusu).
