Full-day tour of the Old City. In the morning, we will visit Hagia Sophia, one of Istanbul's most iconic landmarks, a magnificent architectural marvel that we offer to our visitors. It is considered one of the largest and most important mosques in the world. We continue to the Blue Mosque, admired for its six tall minarets, terraces, and domes that rise from the center of the building. You will see that the architect undoubtedly achieved perfection with this impressive work of art. In the afternoon, we will visit the Roman Hippodrome (dating from the reign of Septimius Severus), a space where horse races and circuses were held, providing entertainment for the inhabitants of Constantinople for over a thousand years. Next, we will visit Topkapi Palace, where the sultans lived between 1478 and 1865. Topkapi is not a single structure, but rather an organic monumental complex comprised of various pavilions, gardens, and scattered areas located in the historic district at the entrance to the Golden Horn. We will end the day at the covered market, the Grand Bazaar, where you will have free time. Transfer to the hotel and overnight stay. **The Grand Bazaar is closed on Sundays and religious holidays.
