Your driver and licensed expert guide will meet you in front of Istanbul’s Cruise port arrival Terminal. You’ll drive along the old city walls and under the ancient Roman aqueduct on the way to view the best of Istanbul’s stunning architecture and attractions. The impressive Roman Hippodrome was once used for chariot races and today is your first stop.
You visit the beautiful Blue Mosque which is named for the vivid Iznik tiles lining its interior. With the full day tour you are certain to hear the calls to prayer as they echo throughout the city center five times a day.
Next you will walk through the amazing Topkapi Palace. This large complex of buildings was the official residence of the Ottoman Sultans and includes the courts, pavilions, mosques, fountains and a treasury. In the Sultan’s chapel you can hear the Imam reading continually from the Koran.
After a stop for lunch you visit the jewel in Turkey’s Byzantine crown, the Museum of St. Sophia (Haghia Sophia). This splendid Church of Divine Wisdom was originally built in the 4th century AD as a Christian Basilica and later was converted to a Mosque. It was lovingly restored in the 1900s, reflecting the true history of this glorious city astride two continents.
Later this afternoon you’ll visit the Grand Bazaar which houses more than 4,000 stalls selling local goods.at the end of the tour transfer to port back.

Tour Reviews
This was our second experience using Ada Vegas Travel, the first time on a tour in 2009, so this is a well established tour company in Turkey. Yuksel provided us with several services on this trip to Istanbul. We were a party of 12 arriving on two different flights so he scheduled transfers from the Istanbul airport to our hotel in the Old City. Since we were boarding a cruise ship on the first full day of our stay in Istanbul, we scheduled a 1/2 day tour in the morning from our hotel to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia and then were dropped off at the cruise terminal along with our luggage. The next morning we were picked up at the cruise terminal and we toured the Roman Cisterns and Topkapi Palace. Again this was a 1/2 day tour. Yuksel was not available to conduct the tour but his colleague was excellent and very informative.
The only shortcoming is that payment had to be made with U.S. dollars which required me to carry a lot more cash than I usually do on international trips. Our tour guide obtained all tickets for the sites and museums and I reimbursed her using Turkish lira I obtained at a bank ATM. Of note is that licensed tour guides in Turkey have priority and we did not have to wait in any lines to enter any site.
We will be visiting Turkey in 2017 and plan on contacting Yuksel again.
Just Perfect!!
The team at Ada Vegas Travel especially Yuksel were exceptional. From initial contact to the planning of the tour and as a result such wonderful memories. It was such a wonderful trip and i didn’t have to worry about anything. To have such a well informed contacts and then guides is testiment to a a great business. Would recommend for any traveller to Turkey. Thanks for it all
We had booked multiple airport pickups and drop-offs, and a full-day tour in Istanbul with Adavegas Travel . Their response time was excellent! Within a few hours we had all of these booked with multiple emails exchanged with Adavegas. We hope to visit Turkey soon and we will definitely turn to Adavegas travel for all our travel needs over there.
Best istanbul tour,
This is my 2nd personal experience with private tours organized by Ada Vegas Travel in Turkey and definitely will not be the last one.. I asked for the tour 2 day before and Ziya miracelously turned it into an unforgettable moment. We were in Istanbul with friends from Switzerland and Germany.. an international group, 3 german, 2 Scotch and 4 Turkish. We did not have much tiime so we could only to a half day tour. Esra our guide, was fabulous.. She took us true the journey of civilization in Istanbul from 6000 BC to today’s Istanbul. How she made us visualize the time with stories was amazing. None of us are really interested in history much, and she made it so fluent and interesting we all wished we had more time after the 4 hours we spent with her.. The lunch place she recommended was extraordinary as well.. Thank you Ziya for the great organization and Thank you Esra for the great tour.. See you soon again..
If you are planning to visit Istanbul, Adavegas Travel should be your choice. I emailed last minute: replied to my email in a matter of minutes and planned my two days. Very efficient in everything they do can’t thank them enough. Just came back from my full day tour in the old city, our guide Emrecan was the best, good communication skills, knowledgeable and good sense of humour too!
They were an outstanding tour company from beginning to end, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to other travels contemplating a private tour through Turkey. The itinerary was perfect with just enough time at most site (although I could have spent more time the Topkapi Palace and the Hagia Sophia). We never had a problem gaining entry to any of the attractions. All of our drivers were prompt and very talented. All of our guides were professional and knowledgeable about their country and their culture. We couldn’t have asked for better people to lead us around their homeland.
