Istanbul Private Old Town and Shopping Tour in Grand Bazaar

Despre activitate

Do you want to have a Private Tour for the History and Legends of Istanbul and have the chance to have a Personal Shopper in the Grand Bazaar?

Instead of being only a guide to tell stories I am looking forward to add personal interactions to the tour and curate routes for your needs in the Grand Bazaar (only if you want to shop)

In this tour everything is adjustable, we can add or remove the stops as you like.

We will learn the unknown details hidden behind the walls:

  • Why only one Angel’s face is open but three other Angel’s faces are covered in Hagia Sophia?
  • Who was Istanbul’s secret Viking visitor and what did he leave as a note to us?
  • What is behind the walls of the Hippodrome?
  • Which door was made of Noah’s Ark?
  • Why there are more than 30.000 dead bodies under the main square of the city?
  • Which minaret was made of jewelry?

All these questions and even more will be answered and covered with great storytelling.

Itinerar

  1. Gulhane Park

    20 min

    This amazing park with full of roses and tulips was once the backyard of Ottomans, here we can take lovely pictures and breathe the atmosphere of a royal family garden.

  2. Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque

    20 min Intrarea nu este inclusă

    Hagia Sophia is the most remarkable historical site of the city. There are too many legends to talk about here, I will tell you the brief story of the temple and then go into details, one by one.

    The entrance of the place is 25 Euros and is not included in the price of the tour. If you want to go, you have to let me know beforehand so I can get the tickets in advance to avoid the lines. Then you will pay me the ticket prices in cash when we meet.

  3. Sultanahmet Square

    30 min

    This square was the main square of two big Empires, Roman Empire and Ottoman Empire and it still has the significant importance. I will tell you the whole story of it starting from Constantine the Great to nowadays. We will go on a terrace for taking pictures and talking generally about the whole history of the area.

  4. Blue Mosque

    20 min

    We will go into the Blue Mosque to envy the amazing tiles of the place and talk about the history of it.

  5. Hippodrome

    20 min

    We will be standing on the site of historical hipodrome and I will show you the remaining of the hipodome. Plus, there are going to be some interesting stories that I will be telling about whatever has happened on the area.

  6. Basilica Cistern

    20 min Intrarea nu este inclusă

    See the amazing underground water storage a.k.a Basilica Cistern, where you will feel like being in an underground palace. This place hides lots of beauties and sculptures with hidden stories behind that you will unveil with us!

    The tickets for this venue is 35 Euros, so please let me know beforehand so that we can purchase together as its not included in the price

  7. Column of Constantine

    10 min

    The Avenue of Constantine the Great, we will learn why there is a column and what happened to the statue on it.

  8. Grand Bazaar

    15 min

    4.000 store marketplace. Almost 600 years old history. One of the most remarkable places in Istanbul.

    Here, you have a choice. If you were already planning to come to Grand Bazaar for shopping anyways, as I am an expert guide on the bazaar (You can see I have another tour just focusing on Shopping in Grand Bazaar), I will help you with your shopping and once your shopping is done we will end the tour here. In my expertise, the shortest shopping takes 2 hours.

    If you are not interested in shopping, then we will go on with the other places that are after here.

    However, in case you want to do shopping, you have to let me know beforehand so I can curate a personalized route for you in the bazaar. Of course, I will recommend you amazing stores with great quality and help you bargain.

    (Most of the guides do not bargain, just leave you at random stores and wait outside, I act more like a personal shopper.)

  9. Beyazit Square

    10 min

    In case you decide to not do shopping and go on with the other places to see, we will see one of the main squares of the Roman Empire and where Istanbul University is located now. We will be talking about the history around here and we will see so many cats on the venue.

  10. Suleymaniye Mosque

    30 min

    The Balcony of Istanbul. One of the most important and best viewed Imperial Mosques of Istanbul. We will finish our tour while resting with the beautiful view here. Again, we will only come here if you want to not do shopping in the bazaar.
