Voyage through the ancient and modern
If you are game to journey into old Istanbul and modern Istanbul, this is your tour! Our day will start off with a brief overview of Sultanahmet Square and will extend to various sites rich with history, and minus the crowds. I will guide you through the famous terminal of the Orient Express where we'll eat like the Turkish do in Konyali. We'll hop on an old restored trolley and ride through the views of Ottoman Baroque, Victorian, and Second Empire buildings. We'll end with modern styled architecture in Levent and Belle Epoque buildings in Nisantasi.
