While walking through the historic center, your local expert will help you understand how Istanbul is organized, which attractions are worth prioritizing, the best times to visit them, how to avoid common tourist traps, and how to plan the rest of your stay according to your interests and budget. You’ll also learn practical essentials such as using the Istanbulkart, taking trams, ferries and public transportation, getting around safely, choosing restaurants, understanding local prices, and finding authentic local experiences. From Sultanahmet, we’ll make our way toward Eminönü, either on foot or by tram, giving you the chance to learn how Istanbul’s transportation system works in real life.

About Istanbul

Istanbul strekker seg over Europa og Asia ved Bosporos, med bysantinske og osmanske monumenter, travle basarer og ferger mellom kontinentene.

Den historiske halvøya rommer de største landemerkene. Hagia Sofia, Den blå moské og Hippodromen vender mot hverandre i Sultanahmet, Basilikacisternen ligger under gatene, og Topkapi-palasset brer seg over høyden over Gullhornet. En kort spasertur unna har Den store basar og Kryddermarkedet handlet i århundrer, og Süleymaniye-moskeen, bygget av den store osmanske arkitekten Sinan, kroner en av byens sju åser.

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