Hippodrome is definitely a sight that most people stop and see before or after visiting the Blue Mosque as it is located to the side of the mosque. There are a number of Obelisk and Columns within the Hippodrome which was in fact the site for many chariot races.
I have never had a better tour guide than Selcuk Senkan. He was professional, funny, knowledgeable.
Turquia istanbul el tour privado jejeje todo de maravilla todo hermoso
Grand bazar is near Sultanahmet historical district , could be reached on foot in 15 minutes, a map from your hotel can be life saver. Grand Bazar consist of over 4000 stores(as noted), the area is jrpt very clean and public restrooms are providedin several location for one turkish lira, ( make sure to have one lira change ).
Grand Bazaar, one of those great let-downs that’s nowadays crawling with tourists, thieves & expensive trinkets. It was probably a much more interesting place 100 years ago when it resembled more of a flea market full of slaves, illegal arms & expensive silks.
Great guides. Great information! Don’t take the cruise line tours they are so expensive!
We were travelling on a cruise ship with 3 couples and booked a private tour our tour guide seemed to get us to each place before the big crowds arrived thanks.
Pity they are busy with renovations ….. guess I will have to revisit (and that is not a bad thing!!) We took a slow walk, talked to the cats that were lying idly around, took a couple of pictures and then went for a coffee under the trees.
