About this experience
Istanbul is an incredibly attractive city with ancient history and unparalleled color. To cover the maximum number of sights, we will move between them by metro. You will walk along Istiklal Street, enjoy the view of the metropolis from a height, admire the ancient fortress of Rumelihisar, visit the Suleymaniye Mosque, and explore the Egyptian Bazaar.
What to expect
Since the locations are in different places and Istanbul is a huge city with unreal traffic, the most convenient way to get around is by metro. It is clean, pleasant, and comfortable here. We have also prepared many stories for you about this type of transport! So, the program includes:
Magnificent and unshakable fortress Rumelihisar. You will appreciate its scale and learn who gave the name to each tower, what was in the fortress before the 16th century, what techniques were used in construction, and much more.
Istiklal Street. It starts at Taksim Square. Here is the 'heart' of all the luxury in Istanbul: hotels, restaurants, boutiques. Iconic architectural landmarks - the Church of the Holy Trinity, the Church of St. Anthony, the Galata Tower - are also concentrated here.
