About this experience
This half-day tour combines two of Istanbul’s most iconic experiences: the vibrant Spice Bazaar and a scenic Bosphorus cruise.
Start at the famous Spice Market, where colorful stalls overflow with exotic spices, Turkish delights, dried fruits, and local delicacies. Your guide will share the history of this 17th-century bazaar and introduce you to trusted vendors.
Next, relax on a Bosphorus boat ride, sailing between Europe and Asia. Admire breathtaking views of Ottoman palaces, elegant mansions, historic fortresses, and the city’s modern skyline. Don’t forget your camera – this is one of the most photogenic experiences in Istanbul.
After the cruise, you’ll be dropped off at your hotel or port, with the rest of the day free to enjoy the city at your own pace.
