About

Begin with a visit to Hagia Sophia. This site has transformed from a Christian church to a mosque and now serves as a museum. Stand beneath its dome, view the mosaics, and learn about its long history.

After exploring Hagia Sophia, take a Bosphorus cruise. Sail along Istanbul’s shoreline, passing historic palaces, mosques, and fortresses. From the boat, see both the European and Asian sides of the city and enjoy a new perspective of Istanbul’s skyline. As you continue the cruise, look at the bridges that connect the continents.
