The early start is worth it when you get to spend the day in this fascinating metropolis on the Bosphorus Strait – the only city in the world located on two continents. You'll catch an early-morning flight to Turkey's largest city and spend a day exploring its rich heritage. You'll have the chance to visit the Blue Mosque, the Topkapi Palace and Galata Bridge. There's also the option of taking a cruise on the Bosporus and having dinner by the Galata Bridge before heading back to the airport.

Der Ausflug nach Istanbul war sehr anstrengend aber super schön . Kleiner Tipp an andere Gäste , lange Hose und einen Schal als Kopfbedeckung sowie festes Schuhwerk. Es wird sehr , sehr viel gelaufen. Das Frühstück war hervorragend , das Mittagessen noch sehr ausbaufähig. Unser Guide war Klasse und hat uns hervorragend mit Informationen versorgt. Die Busfahrrerin war der Hammer. 👍 Ein toller Tag , mit sehr schönen Erinnerungen.

Der Reiseleiter verstand es ausgezeichnet geschichtlich interessante Informationen kurzweilig zu vermitteln. Er konnte alle Fragen beantworten.

Istanbul ist eine Reise wert

Ein Tag Istanbul...vollgepackt mit den wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten und interessanten Informatiinen von unserem Guide. Waren total begeistert...besser gings nicht.

This trip is complete misrepresentation. we bought an English tour with option to visit Topcapi palace. We were joined with German tour ( no other English speaker). The Guid was giving tour in German and, if reminded, would give 2 sentence summary in English on the way away from attraction. The Guid told us from the start - no Topcapi even for extra money. No compromise was accepted. So we got cheated. No history no palace. In addition Broken bus on departure and 30 min wait for pick up.
