Sample itinerariesIstanbul Walks…
From the Mosque of Suleyman the Magnificent, strolling down the traditional bazaars of Istanbul, and then covering Golden Horn, Pera and Istiklal districts…
This is a walking tour, ideally starting around 9am and finishing by 3-5 pm depending on interests of our guests.
We meet with guests at the hotel or the port, then we either take a taxi or use public transportation to the Mosque of Suleyman (Ottoman, 500 years old).
Then comes a walk down to the coast through a very colorful local market.
The far end of this walk is Spice Market ( Ottoman, 500 years old ).
Arriving to Spice Market, we are now in Golden Horn area.
Walking over the bridge connecting both sides of Golden Horn is like walking between stages of history; from the Old City, to the city of 19th Century.
The rest of the afternoon is dedicated to back street walks, you know… Following smells, exploring locations where locals socialize. We have different routes for this walk but generally speaking, we end up with Galata/Pera area (Pera of Agatha Christie). At the end of the walking tour, we take our guests back to their hotel/port.
