Topkapi Palace is a must see while in Istanbul. Make sure you buy a ticket to The Harem as well as it's a separate price.
Grandbazaar nice historical old Market in Istanbul, nice design, big, and contain many wonderful things, one thing I don't like in this market, that some owners of shops boring you to sell their product.
When you been in hagia Sophia museum, you can feel and smell the atmosphere of byzantium, I mean medieval age. A very important place of christianity. But when you get there you may face with a long queue to enter there.
We had wanted to visited Topkapı Palace for a long time. It was great, fabulous and wonderful. Really recommended.
I booked a private tour for 8 people for a one day cruise stop in November, at the port of Istanbul my booking was done through email.
A fabulous day! Thank you
Hagia Sophia a must visit in Istanbul. Don't forget to arrange for tickets in advance as it can be very crowded. Would suggest you take privatetour.net as their guide Taylan is really good and gives detailed history of the place.
Thank you for making our “trip of a lifetime” magical!
伊斯坦堡一日游中，我个人最喜欢的是搭渡轮一游博斯普鲁斯海峡。看到黑海和博斯普鲁斯海的汇合处，实在太壮观了。！
