What to Expect
Inside Istanbul
We will drive through the most interesting and picturesque places in Istanbul. The excursion program includes:
- Pierre Loti Hill - one of the most popular areas in Istanbul among travelers, known for its panoramic viewpoint accessible by transparent cable cars. From the hill, you will see truly captivating views: the waters of the Bosphorus, large ships, colorful fishing boats, and the vast expanses of the city.
- Taksim Square - located in the European part of Istanbul, between the Golden Horn bay and the Bosphorus strait, it will impress you with XIX century architecture, vintage trams, antique shops, cozy cafes, and stores of famous brands.
- Galata Tower - one of the most prominent landmarks of Istanbul. You will learn when and by whom it was built and, if you wish, ascend to the observation deck with magnificent views of the city and its surroundings.
- Theodosian Walls - ancient walls of Constantinople. Here I will show you the Golden Gate, the Edirne Fortress, and giant cannon cores.
- Chamlyja Hill - from a bird's eye view, you will see the Topkapı Palace, the Galata Tower, and ancient fortresses. You will also see the largest mosque in the country and hear the story of its creation.
