In this eight hours tour, we will visit the most popular tourist attraction in Istanbul. You will get a glimpse into the lives of sultans with a visit to the Topkapi Palace, spot the Blue Iznik tiles at Blue Mosque, and marvel at the Hippodrome of Constantinople. Continue to a 6th-century masterpiece of Byzantine architecture; built as a Christian church, converted to a mosque in 1453, and made into a museum in the middle of the 20th century, the famous Hagia Sophia will be an unforgettable experience. How about the bazaars that represent Turkish culture, good taste and preference? Your eyes will be dazzled in the colourful atmosphere of these famous bazaars. Not only as a tour guide but also as a historian, I'll make you feel like travelling through time in this historical city. We will open a window to the depth of history. We will talk about the imperial past of this city as well. At the end of the tour, you will have a better understanding of Istanbul and modern Turkey.
