A great program for guests who are visiting Istanbul for the first time. The Ancient Hippodrome which was once one of the largest chariot race grounds of the Byzantine Empire welcomes you. Continue to The Blue Mosque with its beautiful blue Iznik tiles and six minarets, and one of the greatest buildings of the world and the St. Sophia Museum. Next is the Topkapi Palace; not only the residence of the Ottoman Sultan's but also the administrative and educational center of the state. Following the Palace visit, you’ll experience a typical Turkish cuisine. The Grand Bazaar, one of the most colorful sites of Istanbul, is where you’ll have the chance to experience Turkish weaving arts and a carpet presentation. The final stop will be the local port for an unforgettable cruise along the Bosphorus.
