Itinerary

(Lunch included)
Your day begins with a pick-up from your hotel in Izmir and transfer to Izmir Airport for a short flight to Istanbul. Upon arrival at either Istanbul Airport or Sabiha Gökçen Airport, you’ll be greeted and driven to the Sultanahmet area, the heart of Istanbul’s Old City.

  • First stop: Topkapi Palace, the residence of Ottoman sultans, showcasing imperial treasures, royal robes, and sacred Islamic relics.
  • Next: Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet Mosque), famous for its magnificent blue İznik tiles and majestic domes.
  • Continue to the Hippodrome, the ancient chariot racing arena, where you'll see the Obelisk of Theodosius, Serpentine Column, and Column of Constantine.
  • Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant.
  • Afterward, immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of the Grand Spice Bazaar, where you can shop for Turkish delights, baklava, teas, spices, and handmade crafts.

After the tour, you will be transferred back to the airport for your flight to Izmir. Upon arrival, our team will drop you off at your hotel.
