Don't expect as you are going to see a real hippodrome. The oldest parts of behind a school of the northern end. Then columns is very spectacular. Seating by the benchses and watching the people around is nice especially insummer day. The only point too much vendors around.
We had a marvellous time. all the things and surprises they are really too amazing.
We Highly recommend Taylan and his private tour company to everyone who want to discover Istanbul with a friend.
We had a fantastic day in Istanbul with our private guide. We were able to see so much in a short period of time and had a wonderful, knowledgeable guide. We couldn’t have covered so many of the important sites on our own. Our guide took us to a fantastic hidden gem for lunch near the Grand Bazaar one of our best meals in Turkey.
