Overview
One classic day through the imperial heart of Istanbul — Byzantine glory and Ottoman splendour, side by side. The Heritage Tour is our most complete introduction to old Istanbul. Under the guidance of a professional storyteller, you stand beneath the vast dome of Hagia Sophia, admire the blue İznik tiles of the Sultanahmet Mosque, and cross the Hippodrome where chariots once thundered past the Serpent Column and the Obelisk of Theodosius. The day closes in the Grand Bazaar with a hands-on look at Turkish craftsmanship. Lunch is included and the small-group format keeps it relaxed — a dependable, richly rewarding full day that agencies can sell to almost any client.
