Fatih Sultan Mehmet once said, "Either I conquer Istanbul or Istanbul conquers me." No truer words have been spoken regarding this ancient city, and your opportunity to explore the depths of Istanbul comes with tickets for this full-day tour of Istanbul.

In an all-in-one introduction to the sites of Istanbul, you'll see the typical sites with a local twist. Visit Turkey’s iconic UNESCO-listed historic spots such as the jaw-dropping Hagia Sophia, the beautiful Blue Mosque, and the ancient tree-lined Hippodrome.

Learn how Istanbul has stood strong through the centuries, before experiencing a tasty Turkish lunch with locals at a hidden restaurant.

From here, you'll listen to stories of how generations of sultans lived at the grand Topkapi Palace, overlooking the gorgeous Bosphorus Strait.

Your day tour of Istanbul finishes with a backstreet tour and some good-natured haggling with local artisans in the Grand Bazaar.
