The airport offers numerous options for those facing a long layover, both inside and outside its walls. If you want to maximize your time in Istanbul, let me help you make the most of your valuable hours! Book this tour to explore Istanbul’s highlights, just an hour from the airport. Remember, for international flights, you need to return at least one hour before departure. If you have eight hours or more, this is a perfect opportunity for a layover tour. Timing is key! The best hours for exploration are between 7:00 AM and 2:00 PM. If you prefer a night view, late afternoon from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM is also great. Once we meet, I’ll share a wealth of knowledge about Turkey, ensuring you leave with insights like a diplomat! If history or art isn’t your focus, there are countless other exciting experiences in Istanbul. Don’t hesitate to ask for suggestions! Note: This tour is only for Istanbul Airport, not Sabiha Gokcen Airport. For Sabiha Gokcen, please contact me.

Here are some of the must-see attractions we can explore together: Blue Mosque Hippodrome Hagia Sophia Topkapi Palace Grand Bazaar Spice Bazaar Bosphorus City Walls of Istanbul Pierre Loti Hill (Golden Horn) We can also take a break for coffee at a local café, indulge in a traditional Turkish bath, or savor authentic local cuisine at a restaurant, all guided by a knowledgeable Turkish guide. If you prefer to explore Istanbul after sunset, I'm available to guide you any time between 7:00 AM and 11:00 PM. Please note that the total duration of the tour cannot exceed 7 hours in a single day.
