December 29. Welcome to Turkey! Upon your arrival at Istanbul airport, you'll be transferred to your hotel. The remainder of the day is yours to explore at your leisure, soaking in the vibrant capital city.
Today, delve into a guided tour through Istanbul, a city straddling two continents, Europe and Asia.
Your journey begins in the Hippodrome area, an iconic hub that thrived as the heart of Byzantine and Ottoman civilizations for centuries. You'll marvel at the Blue Mosque and visit the exterior of the awe-inspiring Hagia Sophia, which has transformed from a church to a mosque and now stands as a museum.
After lunch, continue your explorations with a visit to the historical Topkapi Palace, the former residence of sultans for nearly four centuries.
Finally, if available, wander through the bustling Grand Bazaar, home to over 4,000 stalls offering an array of treasures, from gold and carpets to intricate Turkish handicrafts.
On the eve of the new year, immerse yourself in the vibrant essence of Istanbul. Begin your day exploring the vibrant Egyptian Spice Market, offering delightful saffron, spices, and Turkish Delight.
Following this, embark on a cruise along the Bosphorus, marveling at the dividing line between European and Asian Istanbul. Your journey continues with a visit to the opulent Beyerbeyi Palace, followed by wonderous views from Buyuk Camlica, the city's highest vantage point.
Return to your hotel to relax and prepare for an unforgettable New Year's Eve celebration. Enjoy a special dinner as the clock ticks towards midnight, with spectacular fireworks lighting up the skies, either from your hotel or amidst the enchanting old town, particularly Sarayburnu or Sirkeci.
January 1. We hope that you had a very memorable New Years in the vibrant Istanbul!
