Two continents, one city: Byzantine, Ottoman and modern Istanbul.
Istanbul sits on both sides of the Bosphorus, with one foot in Europe and one in Asia. In the old city, Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque face each other across a square, Topkapi Palace looks over the water, and the Basilica Cistern hides beneath the streets.
Then there are the Grand Bazaar and the Spice Bazaar, the views from Galata, and a cruise along the Bosphorus past palaces and wooden mansions. We plan it privately, with a licensed guide and time to simply enjoy the city.
