After breakfast, you will enjoy a wonderful full-day tour of Istanbul. In the morning, we will visit the Hagia Sophia, Istanbul's most recognizable monument, which is one of the most admired and magnificent architectural wonders, as well as one of the world's biggest churches.
Next, we'll go to Topkapi Palace, where the Sultans resided from 1478 and 1856. Topkapi is not a single structure, but rather an organic colossal complex comprised of many kiosks, gardens, and spaces distributed across Istanbul's historic center and to the point of the Golden Horn. We proceed to the Blue Mosque, which is known for its six towering minarets and tiered domes that rise in the middle of the mosque.
In the evening, explore the Roman Hippodrome (Seventh Severe Period). For nearly a thousand years, chariot races and circuses entertained the people of Constantinople. We will complete the day at the covered market Grand Bazaar, where they will have free time.
