Pınar

Guided trip
Hello traveler! My name is Pınar Turan Let me tell you about my trip, Istanbul was the capital of both the Byzantine Empire and Ottoman Empire. Join me on this cultural and historical trip to this city. Istanbul was the capital of both the Byzantine Empire and Ottoman Empire. The old walled city of Istanbul stands on a triangular peninsula between Europe and Asia. Sometimes as a bridge, sometimes as a barrier, Istanbul for more than 2500 years has stood between conflicting of religion, culture, and imperial power. For most of those years, it was one of the most coveted cities in the world. The old city, also known as the Historical Peninsula, is the oldest part of Istanbul. Ency led by the Golden Horn, the Bosporus, and the Marmara Sea and by the old city walls to the west. Istanbul is the only city in the world to have served as capital for three empires. The old city is surrounded by historic and cultural treasures, a legacy of its time as the capital for the Eastern Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman Empires. 💰 Included Fees: 🚌 Round Trip Airport-Hotel Transportation 🚐 Round Trip Yacht Transportation 🏠 Bed & Breakfast Hotel Accommodation 🎟 Museum Entrances 🍽 2 Lunches in Restaurants Chosen by the Tour Leader 🛥️Private Yacht Tour on Bosphorus 😎 Guidance 💸 Taxes ❌ Excluded Fees: Hotel - Sultanahmet District Transportation Travel Insurance Extra Expenses Tips PS: Accommodation hotel will be in walking distance to Sultanahmet District
