About

Meet your English-speaking guide at the Sultanahmet Square, across the Blue Mosque. From here, enjoy a short 5-minute walk to Topkapi Palace, passing Hagia Sophia while listening the stories of the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires.

Begin at Hagia Irene, one of Istanbul’s oldest surviving churches, located in the first courtyard of the Topkapi Palace complex. Dating back to the 4th century, this monument offers a glimpse into the city’s early Christian past.

Continue into the Topkapi Palace, a vast imperial complex that served as the heart of the Ottoman Empire for nearly 400 years. Walk through grand ceremonial spaces, courtyards, and chambers with your guide.

Conclude with access to the Harem, a separate and intimate section of the palace where the sultans and their families lived. Discover its secrets and traditions.

After the guided tour, enjoy free time to take photos and continue exploring the palace at your own pace.
