About this experience
Finding yourself in a city with a population of 15 million and not getting lost is not easy. And what if there's also a language barrier? For such cases, my walking tour is perfect. In 3 hours, I will show you the main attractions, tell you about life in Istanbul, and recommend where to buy souvenirs and local delicacies.
What to Expect
Legends of Istanbul in 3 hours
This is the perfect walk for beginners, as it includes the main symbols of the city that travelers come to see. We will stroll through the park with ancient plane trees, have tea overlooking the Bosphorus in one of the most beloved spots among Istanbul's guests and locals. From the historical peninsula, we will move to the old district of Karakoy via the Galata Bridge, where you will be amazed by the view of the eponymous tower. Afterwards, we will walk through the secret alleys adjacent to, perhaps, the most famous avenue in Istanbul - Istiklal. The walk will end at Taksim Square, from where you can easily reach the airport or continue your journey through the city on your own. As a keepsake, you will receive a map with the main points in the city marked and tips on how to get to them.
Light and engaging storytelling
During our walk, I will not bore you with dull chronicles and dates - only casual conversation about the most interesting things. I will tell you about the peculiarities of life in modern Istanbul and engage you with curious historical facts. I will also share places where you can buy quality sweets, where to go for souvenirs for your loved ones, for shopping for yourself, and where to have tea with a panoramic view of Istanbul. At the end of the walk, I will gladly answer any questions you may have!
