Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
Topkapi Palace as a great piece of architecture, it truly stands out. The interiors,the massive expansive structure,the different parts of the palace, take most of your day. So,keep a full day till 5 pm for visiting this palace. There is a separate ticket for the harem section. So,if you are not interested ,take only the palace tickets.H AREM section is separate n has another entrance.
Blue Mosque Interior
“Turkey is indeed one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Istanbul is the best city to visit for a tourist ! It has all the wonders one would like to see…. These mosques are only few sites of interest…. The Orient and the Occident breath together… The modern runs after the antiques… The Black Sea, the amazing Bosphorous and the Marmara Sea hugs Istanbul like an amazing lover…The Goden Horn kisses her shores and her seven hills are the guardian of her undeniable beauty….”
La verdad estaba muy nerviosa por lo del tour pero contratamos el tour privado y vimos casi todo istanbul fue todo muy emotivo
We were able to fit in a short layover to get a taste of Istanbul with our family. Yesim was able to give us great insight into the history and archetecture of Istanbul and show us sights that we would not ever have found on our own. Great driver and great guide made our short visit a worthwhile one.

El Paisaje de istanbul privado fue otra perspectiva del lugar ya que es mi segunda vez lo recomiendo
Topkapi Palace contains breathtaking pavilions covered with beautiful ceramic tiles, elaborate delicate plasterwork, and gold; and on the inside are beautifully decorated. There is somethingforeveryoneherewith collections of jewels, costumes and arms/armour,and a restaurantthat,while expensive, has unrivalled views over the Bosphorus and tasty food.
We visited Istanbul during a Princess Med cruise. Our guide was so knowledgeable and passionate about his country with a great sense of humour, that it made our tour outstanding. Would love to have him again! Thank you so much for making our tour such a wonderful experience!
I arranged a tour before going on a Mediterrian cruise. We did an amazing tour of Istanbul and incredibly knowledgeable guide. Thank you for a memorable and informative day!
