About this experience
I invite you to explore Istanbul from a different perspective! You will visit unique Asian neighborhoods with colorful houses, cobbled streets, white minarets, and picturesque waterfronts. You will learn about ancient Turk traditions, see both historic and modern mosques, and stroll through the magnificent halls of the Beylerbeyi Palace.
What to Expect
From Europe to Asia by Ferry!
You will enjoy water views of the Old City and witness the confluence of the Bosphorus with the Sea of Marmara. You will also see one of the main symbols of the Turkish capital — Maiden's Tower — and hear the legends associated with it. Then, you will explore the picturesque Uskudar district, beautifully situated right by the strait. I will show you the ancient mosques of Mihrimah Sultan and Kuskonmaz that are still preserved here and reveal the secrets of their names.
Secret Istanbul
The Asian part of Istanbul hides many amazing places. For example, you will explore the photogenic Kuzguncuk neighborhood with colorful 19th-century wooden houses and cobblestone streets. You will then visit the summer palace of the sultans Beylerbeyi and the largest mosque in Turkey Buyuk Camlica.
