Description:

Get a local’s point of view with this small-group, guided tour. Explore Istanbul by land, water, and even from the air at 2 city overlooks—1 of which is known only to locals. Learn how to haggle at the bazaars, see the sights on the Bosphorus, and stroll through the streets around Galata Tower.

Your tour starts at the Grand Bazaar—one of the largest covered markets in the world. With 5,000 stalls lining 60 streets, the Grand Bazaar is a complete maze. Touring with an Istanbul native means you don't have to worry about getting lost or being hassled by vendors. Your guide teaches you about Turkey's different crafts and provides insider tips on how to spot good buys.

Led by handpicked, licensed guides with no external affiliations, your tour is completely pressure-free. At the Spice Bazaar, visit a small store where you can sample a few bites, discuss spices and teas, and have the chance to ask your guide questions.

Get your camera ready for a memorable, 1-hour guided Bosphorus cruise. Sit back and take a break as you glide past the city’s iconic sights.

Disembark for a walking tour through the streets of Istanbul before climbing the hill to Galata Tower. The lines here can be crazy so instead of hanging around, your guide leads you to the rooftop terrace of a nearby café, where you get the same view without the wait.
