Begin your tour by crossing the Bosphorus Bridge, transitioning from the European to the Asian side of Istanbul. Your first stop is Çamlıca Hill, a beloved retreat that offers sweeping panoramic views of the city. Next, visit the magnificent Çamlıca Mosque, a stunning example of modern Islamic architecture. This grand structure seamlessly fuses traditional Ottoman elements with contemporary design, offering not only architectural splendour but also breathtaking views over Istanbul.

Around noon, return to the European side for lunch and the afternoon segment of your tour. Pause at a local shop before lunch, a great chance to browse unique souvenirs and artisanal crafts. In the afternoon, after free time for lunch, continue to Topkapı Palace, once the exclusive residence and administrative centre of the Ottoman Sultans for over four centuries. Explore its opulent chambers and marvel at priceless collections, including sacred Islamic relics of the Prophet Mohammed, and imperial treasures. Admire the Harem, nestled within the palace grounds, which once housed the sultan, his mother, wives, concubines, children, and other female members of the court. Next, visit the Hagia Irene Church, a remarkable Byzantine landmark and the first church built in Constantinople.

At the end of your tour, return to your pickup point by coach.
