Your adventure begins in Istanbul, the city where East meets West. As soon as you arrive, you’ll feel the pulse of this historic metropolis. After a smooth transfer to your hotel, you’ll have time to relax and prepare for an incredible exploration. The next morning, we dive into the city's glorious past with a full-day Byzantine and Ottoman relics tour. We’ll visit the iconic Hagia Sophia, the majestic Blue Mosque, the ancient Hippodrome, and the fascinating Topkapi Palace. You’ll also have a chance to wander through the vibrant alleys of the Grand Bazaar, where centuries-old traditions meet modern craftsmanship.
On the third day, get ready for a Bosphorus Cruise, a must-experience activity in Istanbul. As you sail between two continents, you’ll witness breathtaking views of Dolmabahce Palace, the mighty Rumeli Fortress, and the legendary Maiden’s Tower. Later, a visit to Pierre Loti Hill offers a stunning panoramic view of the Golden Horn before descending by cable car to explore the sacred Eyüp Sultan Mosque.
The fourth day brings a change of pace as we embark on a Princes' Islands tour. You’ll cruise across the Marmara Sea to Buyukada and Kinaliada, enjoying a peaceful retreat from the city’s hustle and bustle. You’ll see Heybeliada, Burgazada, and even the distant Sivriada from the ferry. Walking through the car-free streets, you'll experience the nostalgic charm of the Ottoman-era mansions and lush pine forests before enjoying a delicious seafood lunch by the shore.
Next, we set out on a full-day journey to Bursa and Uludag, known as the Green City for its lush nature and historical sites. We’ll visit the impressive Green Mosque, the serene Green Mausoleum, and the bustling Silk Market before ascending Uludag Mountain by cable car. Here, you can admire breathtaking mountain views and enjoy fresh, crisp air. In winter, Uludag turns into a skier’s paradise, making it a must-visit spot for winter sports enthusiasts.
The journey continues with a flight from Istanbul to Cappadocia, where a surreal landscape of fairy chimneys and cave dwellings awaits. Our South Cappadocia tour will take you through the stunning Red Valley (Kizilcukur), the ancient Cavusin Village, and the awe-inspiring Underground City, a network of tunnels and chambers used by early Christians. You’ll also visit the Pigeon Valley, where thousands of pigeons have lived for centuries, playing a significant role in Cappadocia’s agricultural history.
On the seventh day, we take a scenic bus journey from Cappadocia to Konya, the spiritual heart of Turkey. Our Konya tour explores the legacy of Rumi (Mevlana), the great poet and founder of the Whirling Dervishes. You’ll visit the Mevlana Museum, the intricate Karatay Tile Museum, and the Alaaddin Mosque, one of the oldest and most significant mosques in Konya. The city's tranquil atmosphere and rich history offer a unique contrast to the landscapes of Cappadocia.
The next stop is Pamukkale, famous for its travertine terraces and ancient Hierapolis. After a relaxing bus ride, you’ll arrive at this UNESCO-listed site, where you can walk barefoot on the white calcium-rich terraces and bathe in the thermal waters. The ancient city of Hierapolis, with its well-preserved ruins, tells the story of a thriving Roman spa city. You may also choose to swim in Cleopatra’s Pool, a thermal spring rumored to have been a favorite of the Egyptian queen herself.
After a full-day Pamukkale tour, we board a flight back to Istanbul, where you’ll have a free day to explore the city at your leisure.
