One of the most popular tours in our travel agency is a trip to Istanbul from Belek. The ancient city, once called Constantinople, played a key role in the Ottoman era. Modern Istanbul is a city of contrasts, where technological progress borders with medieval architecture, where luxurious industrial buildings are located a block away from ancient buildings. You have a unique opportunity to combine sightseeing, entertainment and an overview into the wonderful history of an ancient city.

The Start of the Tour

Guests are picked up from Belek hotels and taken to Antalya, where they fly to Istanbul. A professional guide will meet you immediately upon your arrival. The city tour with a guide will give you an insight into the history of the ancient city.

Visit to Istanbul’s main attractions

The Istanbul tour begins with a visit to the Topkapi Palace, built in the 15th century by order of Sultan Mehmed. For several centuries the building has served as the main residence of the Padishakhs of Turkey. Today the palace is a magnificent museum: tourists can visit the old stables, the bakery, the luxurious garden, floral terraces decorated with elegant fountains.

The next part of the tour is the excursion to Aya-Sofia Mosque, which is included in the World Heritage of UNESCO. The object is located in the «heart» of the historical district of the city. The building is not only attractive because of its architecture. It is in the mosque of Aya Sofia that elements of the Islamic and Christian cultures are intertwined in a surprising way.

After lunch in the restaurant you visit the Hippodrome Square. It is considered the oldest not only in Turkey, but also in the whole world. Several majestic obelisks, the serpentine column, the German Fountain, the Sphendone Wall and other landmarks attract our attention. Then tourists will go to the famous «Blue Mosque» (Sultanahmet). The architecture of the building combines two great styles: Ottoman and Byzantine. Inside there is a striking contrast between the blue upper part and the red floor. You can see the mihrab brought from Mecca, the minarets, the mausoleum and much more.

Egyptian Bazaar and Bosphorus Yacht Trip

Next you go for a walk to the lively «Egyptian bazaar». During the high season you can buy interesting and memorable souvenirs. After shopping, you can enjoy an unforgettable yacht trip to the Bosphorus in warm sunny weather. The tour ends with the transfer to the airport, flight to Antalya and arrival back to Belek resort.
