Schedule details
Unforgettable four-hour tour at the oldest crossroads of the world ! Visit the Topkapi Palace, once the palace of the Sultans of the Ottoman Empire, Topkapi is a vast treasury of Islamic culture, science and weaponry, visited by over 2 million people every year. It is one of the highlights of Turkey. Visit the Underground Cistern (Basilica Cistern),waterway was used as a reservoir for water storage for the Great Palace and other buildings. It is 132 m length, by 65m wide. There are 336 columns in the cistern. Most of the column capitals are either in Corinthian or Doric Style. It’s impressive. After leaving the Basilica Cistern you will finally have the opportunity to do some haggling at the Grand Bazaar, the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul is like any bazaar except that, as its explains, it is all within one huge building. Depending on how you measure it, the covered market here could be the largest shopping center in the world, numbering over 4,000 individual shops, you will find among masses of modern trash an approximation of youthful dreams of the glamorous oriental market.Inclusions

Topkapi Palace is an amazing place where you can let your mind wander into the past and imagine the lives that were lived here.
The Grand Bazaar is like the “Cave of Ali Baba”, full of sparkles from the true jewelry, the fake jewelery, the copper objects, the light bulbs. The smells can not also be forgotten. It is unique and amazing.
Topkapi Palace is good to walk down to see all the heritage , assets , beds , sword, there dresses then its a good to visit , also when u reach at the palace u can watch the beautiful view of asia and Europe at one point of time..

We Just Wanted To Let You Know We Had A Wonderful Time. Istanbul Was Amazing !
So impressed with how they put this together so quickly and got everyone where they needed to go. It couldn’t have gone much better. Such a great idea and so well to my budget.
Istanbul visit is incomplete without the visit to Grand Bazar. The roof shows beautiful colourful Islamic art.
