What To Expect

Welcome to the fascinating city of Constantinopolis, a place with a rich history that spans millennia. It all began in the 7th Century BC when the Megaran king Byzas laid the foundation for Byzantion, a city that would eventually become a pivotal hub in world history.

In this tour, we will discover how the city has functioned throughout the centuries: Hippodrome (centre of entertainment), Hagia Sophia/Blue Mosque (centres of faith), Topkapı Palace (centre of politics), Grand Bazaar (centre of commerce).

The sights are in walking distance to each other. As we walk from one sight to the other, you will travel through the history of Constantinopolis!

We are travellers ourselves, and we know what to look for when visiting a city for a short time. With this purpose in mind, we tried to curate the tour in a relaxed and entertaining way. With us, you can experience a one-of-a-kind journey with our exceptional tour that stands out in the following ways:
