İzmir → İstanbul

event Day 1 — Izmir - Çamlıca Hill - Beylerbeyi Palace - Bosphorus Tour - Eminönü - Spice Baza...

After having our breakfast (extra), we head towards ÇAMLICA HILL, where we can see the unique view of Istanbul from the best spots.

We take a short break at Çamlıca Hill, located 268 meters above sea level. Enjoying the forest air, we admire the magnificent view of Istanbul, and guests who wish can sip their teas while capturing these beautiful moments with plenty of photos.

We then continue our program by visiting BEYLERBEYI PALACE.

Next, we move to EMINÖNÜ. Guests who wish can join the Istanbul Bosphorus Boat Tour (extra). During our pleasant journey on the Bosphorus, which separates the continents of Europe and Asia and connects the Black Sea with the Sea of Marmara, we receive information from our guide about the historical and geographical features of the Bosphorus and its unique mansions that carry traces of history.

After our Bosphorus tour, we meet again in EMINÖNÜ. Guests who wish can try fish sandwich. We then proceed to the SPICE BAZAAR and give free time. Guests who wish can shop in Istanbul's historical bazaar and acquire beautiful souvenirs.

At the designated time, we visit EYÜP SULTAN MOSQUE AND TOMB. We then take the cable car to PIERRE LOTI HILL.

Here, we enjoy a pleasant break with tea and coffee while admiring the unique view of the Golden Horn. At the designated time, we take the cable car back down and proceed to BALAT.

In Balat, which carries the historical texture of Istanbul to the present day, we see the FENER GREEK HIGH SCHOOL, which stands out with its red color, left by the Greeks. We then explore this historical area sequentially, visiting FENER GREEK PATRIARCHATE, COLORED STAIRS, MARY ANA GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH (BLOODY CHURCH), and the entirely iron-built SVETI STEFAN BULGARIAN CHURCH.

At the end of the day, we head to KUMKAPI, one of Istanbul's most authentic entertainment venues. Here, we enjoy our dinner and have a delightful evening in the unique atmosphere of Istanbul.

We then head to our hotel at the appropriate time.

event Day 2 — Istiklal Street - Taksim - Basilica Cistern - Sultan Ahmed Mosque - Topkapi Pala...

After having our open buffet breakfast at the hotel, we depart for ISTIKLAL STREET AND TAKSIM.

Accompanied by our guide, we see the GALATA TOWER, and then enjoy a pleasant walk on Istiklal Street. After our visit to Istiklal Street, one of Istanbul's most vibrant and historic points, we move to the HISTORICAL PENINSULA.

Our first stop is the BAŞILIK CISTERN, one of the most impressive points of the Historical Peninsula. This unique underground structure, which has survived from the period when Istanbul was the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, takes us deep into history with its 336 columns rising from the water and its mystical atmosphere.

Next, we walk to HIPPODROME SQUARE. We see the Serpent Column, Obelisk, and German Fountain that adorn the square and listen to the stories of these historical artifacts from our guide.

Our next stop is the HAGIA SOPHIA MOSQUE, one of Istanbul's most important symbols with a history of approximately 1500 years. Starting as the largest cathedral in the world, it continued as a mosque after the conquest of Istanbul and today carries its multi-layered history from the past to the present.

We then visit the SULTANAHMET MOSQUE, also known as the BLUE MOSQUE, built by Ottoman Sultan Ahmed I and decorated with blue tiles. This unique masterpiece, constructed in the 17th century by one of Mimar Sinan's students, Sedefkâr Mehmet Ağa, is closely examined.

During our lunch break (extra), we taste the famous Sultanahmet meatballs, one of the flavors that come to mind when Istanbul is mentioned.

After our lunch, we proceed to one of the important stops of our tour, the TOPKAPI PALACE. The residence of the Ottoman Dynasty for approximately 400 years, the Topkapi Palace served as the center of administration and education; its vast structure and unique history take us on an unforgettable journey back in time.

Covering an area of approximately 700,000 m², around 70,000 m² of the palace can be visited today. During our palace tour, we can see the Bab-ı Hümâyun, Babüsselam, and Babüssaade gates, the Palace Kitchens, and the Divan sections where important state decisions were made.

Guests who wish can visit the Harem Section or see the Topkapi Dagger and the famous Spoonmaker's Diamond in the weapons museum. The Has Oda, where the sacred relics are kept, is also among the important sections that can be seen within the palace.

After a culturally rich program in Istanbul, we begin our return journey to Izmir. After taking the necessary breaks along our route, we arrive in IZMIR in the evening.

We bid farewell until we meet again on another TRAVEL ENTHUSIASTS journey.
