Detailed proposed itinerary

Day 1: An outdoor walk from Sultanahmet to the Spice Bazaar

Meet near the Basilica Cistern at the point confirmed for your date. This introductory outdoor walk takes approximately two hours, with the actual pace and timing agreed beforehand. The route observes the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, then the Hippodrome, Egyptian Obelisk and St Irene. Continue through the Topkapı surroundings, Ahmed III Fountain and Soğuk Çeşme street towards the waterfront, finishing around the port and Spice Bazaar. These are exterior encounters: museum interiors, a Bosphorus sailing and hotel pickup are not automatic inclusions. Tell us about walking or assistance needs when choosing the route.

This is an outdoor introductory walk of about two hours. It follows the historic centre towards the waterfront and Spice Bazaar; it does not include museum admissions, a boat ride or a guaranteed gratuity-based operating format.

Private guiding or transport is only included when stated in that written proposal.

International travel, additional excursions, personal spending and other services are not assumed. Ask for the complete scope and applicable terms before agreeing the trip. Let us know your preferred guiding language when you enquire.
