Tour Summary
09:30 AM - Meeting at Kabataş Pier
The tour begins at 09:30 AM by meeting your guide at Kabataş Pier. After a short briefing, you prepare to cross the Bosphorus with one of Istanbul's most classic modes of transportation.
A Ferry Trip from Kabataş to Üsküdar
While crossing from Europe to Asia by ferry, your guide shares enjoyable information about the mansions, palaces and historical structures on the shores of the Bosphorus. While your eyes compete with the seagulls, you enjoy the unique transition between the two sides of Istanbul.
Üsküdar Beach and Mihrimah Sultan Mosque
After getting off the ferry, take a short walk on the Üsküdar beach. You can see the Mihrimah Sultan Mosque, one of the elegant examples of Ottoman architecture, from the outside and make a short visit. You will take a short break to get involved in daily life in the square in front of the mosque.
Breakfast with a View of the Maiden's Tower
You will take a walk to Salacak beach. Here you will have a tea/coffee break with the view of the Maiden's Tower. Guests who wish can go up to the tower (for an extra fee). The Bosphorus and history intertwine here.
Validebağ Grove - Natural Escape
After the view break, you will walk along the beach to Validebağ Grove. You will take a short walk in this wide area that preserves its natural structure. It is a nature break in the heart of Istanbul.
Lunch: Fish & Meze in Üsküdar
You will have a lunch break at a local restaurant on the Üsküdar beach. The menus are dominated by fish, meze varieties, olive oil dishes and seafood. Those who wish can choose the terraces with a view.
Afternoon: Peaceful Streets of Kuzguncuk
After dinner, we go to Kuzguncuk. We take a guided walk on the streets famous for their colorful houses, cafes under plane trees and TV series/movie scenes. This neighborhood, where synagogues, mosques and churches stand side by side, represents the tolerance of Istanbul.
Ferry Tour on the Bosphorus (Optional)
A ferry tour can be taken from Üsküdar to Ortaköy or along the entire route with the guests who wish. Information is provided about the historical mansions, bridges and palaces on the Bosphorus line.
17:00 – 18:00 – Return to Kabataş and End of Tour
After the ferry tour, we return to Kabataş. You complete the day by feeling the calm spirit of the sea and Istanbul.
This special route, which combines the two sides of Istanbul, the sea and its history, is perfect for those who want to renew themselves without leaving the city!
