8 guided days

  1. Day 1

    Arrive Istanbul

    Airport transfer and Bosphorus-facing hotel check-in.

    Guidance: Istanbul traffic varies — we build buffer into pickups.

  2. Day 2

    Old City classics

    Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque exterior, Hippodrome, and spice markets.

    Guidance: Remove shoes when entering mosque interiors; women may need headscarves.

  3. Day 3

    Bosphorus cruise & Asian side

    Boat views of palaces and two continents plus waterside cafés.

    Guidance: Layer lightly — sea breezes can feel cool even in summer.

    Guidance: Balloon flights are weather-dependent; we confirm dawn slots early.
