Itinerary

(Breakfast Included)

Welcome to Turkey! Upon landing at Istanbul Airport (IST or SAW), our friendly team will meet you and transfer you to your hotel in the heart of the city. Settle in and let the magic of Istanbul surround you—minarets piercing the sky, ferries gliding over the Bosphorus, the aroma of Turkish coffee filling the streets. Spend the evening exploring at your own pace or relaxing after your journey.

(Breakfast And Lunch Included)

Prepare for a full day inside the ancient soul of Istanbul. Walk through Sultanahmet Square, once the Hippodrome of Constantinople, and witness the city’s most iconic monuments: Hagia Sophia – A masterpiece that has stood for 1,500 years. Blue Mosque – Famous for its elegant domes and blue Iznik tiles. Grand Bazaar – A historical labyrinth of 4,000 shops. After lunch, discover the grandeur of the Topkapi Palace, home to Ottoman sultans for centuries. Stroll through its elegant courtyards, imperial chambers, and the breathtaking treasury. The day concludes with a visit to Little Hagia Sophia, a hidden architectural gem. Return to your hotel enriched with centuries of history.

(Breakfast And Lunch Included)

Leave the city buzz behind and sail across the Sea of Marmara to the serene Büyükada, the largest of the Princes’ Islands. Feel the tranquility of a world with no cars—only bicycles, horse-drawn carriages (seasonal), pine forests, charming Victorian homes, and seafront cafés.

Enjoy:

Crystal-clear sea views

Delicious seafood restaurants

Quiet paths perfect for photography

Return to Istanbul refreshed and rejuvenated.

Highlights include: The vast necropolis Roman baths Ancient theater Sacred pools Optional: Swim in the legendary Cleopatra’s Pool, filled with ancient marble columns resting beneath turquoise water.
