Half-day Walking Tour of Highlights in Istanbul with Serif Yenen & Team

Istanbul has such a diverse and rich history. It has been the capital of three great empires; the Roman, Byzantine and the Ottoman. Although it is not the official capital anymore, it is still the cultural capital of the country.

Visitors would normally need more than one day to explore Istanbul.

For those visitors who are coming to Istanbul for the first time and have rather limited time, we would recommend a half day of sightseeing with visits to the highlights of Istanbul as follows:

  • Byzantine Hippodrome (15-20 minutes)
  • Blue Mosque (45-60 minutes)
  • Hagia Sophia-Ayasofya (60-90 minutes)

Note:

  • Let us remind you that ladies are required to wear scarves and decent clothing during mosque visits.
  • On Mondays (in the low season only), Hagia Sophia is closed, therefore it will be replaced by Turkish and Islamic Arts Museum.
