Information about
Istanbul Express

The beautiful city of Istanbul, in fact considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, is a magical place that is worth losing as its streets are slowly leaving that its extraordinary architecture tells us the history of times and past civilizations.

Straddling Europe and Asia, its multicultural nature has resulted in majestic temples, Muslim, Christian and Jewish. The basilica of Hagia Sophia or the Roman Hippodrome, for example, show the importance of this ancient capital of great empires.

During 4 days, we will visit the most significant monuments and corners of Istanbul on a tour that will show you the past and present of this charming city.
