What to expect During this tour?

Istanbul has such a diverse and rich history. It has been the capital of three great empires; the Roman, Byzantine (Eastern Roman) and the Ottoman. Although it is not the official capital anymore, it is still the cultural capital of the country. There is so much to see or to do in this city. Visitors would normally need more than one day to explore Istanbul. However, for those visitors who are coming to Istanbul for the first time and have rather limited time, we would recommend this tour for the first day of sightseeing in Istanbul. The program will include visits to mosques, a cistern, a palace, a hippodrome, a bazaar and a panoramic terrace.
