GUIDED TOURS
1. Classic Istanbul Tour Full Day Including Blue Mosque, Hippodrome,
Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace
Istanbul is a historically rich city, yet visiting all of its famous sights by yourself
might be challenging. On this all-day tour, led by a knowledgeable guide, learn about
various significant historical events. Take advantage of the small tour size to get a
closer look at the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, and other sites.
Hagia Sophia Mosque as an architectural wonder has an interior covered in 30
million gold tiles and a broad, flat dome that, when it was built in the sixth century,
was a daring engineering achievement.
Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet Mosque) - This magnificent mosque, which was
built between 1609 and 1616, features six minarets. Why is it called the ""Blue
Mosque?"" There are two tales: the first, and more popular one, claims that blue znik
tiles cover the inside. The second is that, thousands of years ago, sailors passing by
the mosque on the Marmara water noticed the blue hues of the water reflected in it.
The Byzantine Hippodrome served as the focal point for many aspects of civic life,
from chariot races and riots to political and religious debates. The arena, which was
constructed in 203 by Emperor Septimus Severus, is thought to have held up to
100,000 spectators.
Topkapı Palace - For nearly 400 years, this opulent castle served as the Ottoman
empire's royal residence. As you stroll around the magnificent courtyards, pavilions,
and ceremonial halls, which showcase an astonishing collection of artifacts and
riches, you may get a glimpse into the sultans' royal lifestyle. You can also see the
Harem, a secret realm with approximately 400 elegantly designed rooms where the
sultan lived with his wives, concubines, and children, with a separate ticket."
